LOINC(逻辑观察标识符名和代码)词汇表是一组10,000多个名称和代码，用于在临床计算机系统之间交换的标准化消息中用作观察标识符。这项研究的目标是创建可供所有临床信息系统使用的临床观察的通用名称和代码。LOINC名称的结构便于本地词汇和通用LOINC代码之间的快速匹配(自动或手动)；如果LOINC代码用于临床消息，参与数据交换的每个系统只需将其本地词汇与标准词汇匹配一次。这将减少实施标准化接口的时间和成本。描述了LOINC词汇的发展历史和在其创建过程中所使用的方法。
The LOINC (Logical Observation Identifier Names and Codes) vocabulary is a set of more than 10,000 names and codes developed for use as observation identifiers in standardized messages exchanged between clinical computer systems. The goal of the study was to create universal names and codes for clinical observations that could be used by all clinical information systems. The LOINC names are structured to facilitate rapid matching, either automated or manual, between local vocabularies and the universal LOINC codes; If LOINC codes are used in clinical messages, each system participating in data exchange needs to match its local vocabulary to the standard vocabulary only once. This will reduce both the time and cost of implementing standardized interfaces. The history of the development of the LOINC vocabulary and the methodology used in its creation are described.
