extended edition
extended edition
A SNOMED CT edition to which a specified set of additional modules has been added.
Notes
An extended edition provides a way to add a set of modules containing maps, subsets and other derivatives to an edition.
The module dependencies of all the additional modules must be satisfied by other modules in the extended edition.
Additional modules included in an extended versioned edition may include additional reference sets and reference set members and metadata concepts (with descriptions and a subtype relationship linking them to the appropriate branch of the | SNOMED CT Model Component| hierarchy). However, they should not include other concepts, descriptions, relationships or OWL reference set members.
Examples
The SNOMED CT International Edition with both the | International Health Terminology Standards Development Organisation general dentistry diagnostic module| and the | International Health Terminology Standards Development Organisation odontogram module| .
The SNOMED CT Spanish Edition with the | SNOMED CT to ICD-10 rule-based mapping module| .
