Treatment #

The concept we in STRONG AYA refer to as “Treatment” is identifiable through shortcode ncit:C25218.
In standard vocabularies this shortcode refers to “Intervention or Procedure” and is defined as “An activity that produces an effect, or that is intended to alter the course of a disease in a patient or population. This is a general term that encompasses the medical, social, behavioral, and environmental acts that can have preventive, therapeutic, or palliative effects.”
