Maintaining value sets is a necessary and distinct activity apart from maintaining recognized controlled vocabularies. As an illustration of one such value set, we evaluate the CDC and Regenstrief versions of the notifiable condition mapping tables (NCMT) and illustrate they are not synchronized. We used practical informatics approaches including heuristic queries and similarity measures to accurately identify more than 800 new candidate reportable LOINC codes. To successfully maintain value sets we must establish a clear strategy for coordinating the value sets and process for disseminating among stakeholders. These stakeholders will likely be distinct from, but interface with, the existing standards development organizations (SDOs).
维护值集是一项必要且与维护公认的受控词汇表不同的活动。作为一个此类值集的示例，我们评估了疾病控制与预防中心（CDC）和Regenstrief研究所版本的应报告疾病映射表（NCMT），并表明它们未同步。我们使用了包括启发式查询和相似性度量在内的实用信息学方法，准确识别出800多个新的候选可报告LOINC代码。为了成功维护值集，我们必须制定一个明确的策略，以协调值集以及在利益相关者之间进行传播的流程。这些利益相关者可能与现有的标准开发组织（SDO）不同，但会与其交互。
