SNOMED CT International Edition: long descriptions
This announcement affects subscribers to the SNOMED CT International Edition item.
SNOMED International included 2 descriptions in the April 2024 release which were longer than 255 characters. The May 2024 release shortened these descriptions to within the current 255-character limit.
Subscribers to items in the SNOMED CT UK Edition category will only see the shortened descriptions in release content. UK users who use the latest 'Snapshot' file of the International Edition will also only see the shortened descriptions.
Read more on Delen.

Uplifting SCCI0052: Dictionary of medicines and devices (dm+d)
As part of the UK Medicines Terminology Futures work, we are seeking feedback from those who use or manage dm+d data, to understand the impacts of uplifting SCCI0052 dm+d.
The scope for uplifting the standard is:
- dm+d historical codes (already live)
- ingredients for VTMs (expected in dm+d: Quarter 3 2024)
- Trade Family and Trade Family Group (expected in dm+d: 2025)
- removal of the 'interesting' excipient field (data has not been in the dm+d extract since October 2022)
The purpose of uplifting SCCI0052 is to reflect these changes as part of the core dm+d data model and be reflected in the core dm+d extract, rather than as supplementary files.
We've produced a short survey to assess the impact on users and the resultant change to the core dm+d files and download. Please submit responses by 5pm on Friday 16 August 2024.
A sample test file, nhsbsa_dmd_5.1.0_20240513000001.Future.zip (ZIP, 16MB), is available which reflects the proposed changes. This file is not official dm+d data and is for test purposes only.
If you have any issues completing the survey or would like to discuss this work further, email nhsdigital.ukmeds@nhs.net.
