| 732981002 | Actuation (unit of presentation) | is equivalent to | Hub | In the context of drug administration, "Hub" in German often refers to the actuation or dose delivered by a medical device, such as a pump or a spray. In the case of an inhaler or nasal spray, a Hub refers to the quantity of medication released in one spray or actuation. For an insulin pump or other infusion devices, Hub can denote a specific unit of the medication delivered per pump cycle or actuation. | |

| 396186001 | (the number ten for arbitrary powers ^ 6) * Unit | is equal to | Mio U | CdTyp9 has two codes for a million units: "Mio U" and "MU" (labeled as Millionen Einheiten). Since MU could bring some confusion, as it is also stands for Measurement Unit in English, with a different meaning, CdTyp9's "Mio U" is preferred by this concept map. | |
| is equal to | MU | CdTyp9 has two codes for a million units: "Mio U" and "MU" (labeled as Millionen Einheiten). Since MU could bring some confusion, as it is also stands for Measurement Unit in English, with a different meaning, CdTyp9's "Mio U" is preferred by this concept map. | |||
