VUMeF: extending the French involvement in the UMLS Metathesaurus.
A considerable number of robust vocabularies and thesauri have been developed for the healthcare and biomedical domain. No single vocabulary, however; provides complete coverage of the information needs from a public health perspective. The results of an investigation of vocabulary sources for the development of a comprehensive controlled vocabulary for the public health domain at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) is presented.
