SNOMED International significantly expands the scope of the Global Patient Set Back 11 Mar 2026 Back SNOMED International and its Members are pleased to announce the expansion of the Global Patient Set, building on the success of the first released Global Patient Set launched in 2019. Designed to meet the evolving needs of healthcare systems and users worldwide, the Global Patient Set (GPS) offers an open, and freely accessible collection of SNOMED CT terms that support the accurate, consistent exchange of essential patient information — regardless of geographic location or technical environment. The GPS reflects SNOMED International’s ongoing commitment to supporting global health interoperability, improving patient outcomes, and advancing equitable access to high-quality clinical terminologies. What’s New with the Global Patient Set? Broader Scope: The GPS will now include all content in the SNOMED CT International Edition, which significantly exceeds the currently scoped collection of concepts to better support core health data exchange, public health reporting, research, and more. GPS offers global access to all SNOMED CT unique identifiers, fully specified names (FSNs), preferred terms in international English, and active/inactive indicators — made available at no cost to users worldwide. *The GPS does not include SNOMED CT’s full semantic structure, including inherent relationships, hierarchies, and additional descriptions, nor access to any SNOMED CT derivatives, including reference sets, maps, extensions or translations. Open for All: The GPS continues to be openly available under a Creative Commons Attribution-NoDerivatives 4.0 International Public License , ensuring it remains free for use worldwide, without barriers. Alignment with Global Initiatives: The GPS is designed to complement international efforts such as HL7 FHIR and other health data standards, including regional interoperability approaches such as EHDS.

SNOMED CT Entity Linking Challenge In early 2024, SNOMED International launched a challenge to link spans of text in clinical notes with specific topics in the SNOMED CT clinical terminology. The Challenge concluded in March 2024 and awarded a share of $25,000 in prizes to three successful teams. Read about the challenge A challenge to uncover how entity linking models can improve healthcare delivery The SNOMED CT Entity Linking Challenge posed an opportunity to advance the development of efficient and reliable tools for automating the coding of patient data, facilitating interoperability, decision support, and improving healthcare delivery. Much of the world’s healthcare data is stored in free-text documents, usually clinical notes taken by clinicians. Extracting useful information from these notes would unlock incredible opportunities for analytics and research, in turn stimulating the development of new medicines, treatment pathways, and better patient outcomes. Learn more Challenge Partners Sponsored by: Collaborator Clinical notes provider Hosted by The objective? The objective of this competition was to train machine learning models to link clinical notes with specific topics. Participants were challenged to train models based on real-world doctor’s notes, which have been deidentified and annotated with SNOMED CT concepts by medically trained professionals. This is the largest publicly available dataset of labeled clinical notes, and you can be one of the first to use it! The algorithms that perform best on additional real-world data have been publicly recognized on the challenge leaderboard , and awarded a share of $25,000 in cash prizes.

SNOMED CT Is the most comprehensive, multilingual clinical global healthcare terminology. A resource with comprehensive, scientifically validated clinical content, it enables consistent representation of content in EHRs and maps to other international standards. It is used in 80+ countries. What is SNOMED CT? This 5-step briefing presents you with a high level overview of what SNOMED CT is, how it works and the benefits of use through implementation examples. Explore the clinical breadth of SNOMED CT SNOMED CT: Is the most comprehensive , multilingual clinical healthcare terminology in the world Is a resource with comprehensive, scientifically validated clinical content Enables consistent representation of clinical content in electronic health records Is mapped to other international standards Is in use in more than eighty countries The SNOMED CT clinical terminology has unmatched depth, enabling clinicians to record data with enhanced accuracy and consistency. SNOMED CT remains a growing and evolving product made better by the Community of Practice. SNOMED CT supports the development of comprehensive high-quality clinical content in electronic health records. It provides a standardized way to represent clinical phrases captured by the clinician and enables automatic interpretation of these What is SNOMED CT? Released monthly, the SNOMED CT International Edition includes more than 360,000 concepts. How does SNOMED CT work? The SNOMED CT logical model defines the way in which each type of SNOMED CT component and derivative is related and represented. The core component types in SNOMED CT are concepts , descriptions and relationships . The SNOMED CT model specifies how the components can be managed in an implementation setting to meet a variety of primary and secondary uses. Concepts Every concept represents a unique clinical meaning, which is referenced using a unique, numeric and machine readable SNOMED CT identifier . The identifier provides an unambiguous unique reference to each concept and does not have any ascribed human interpretable meaning. Relationships A relationship represents an association between two concepts. Relationships are used to logically define the meaning of a concept in a way that can be processed by a computer. A third concept, called a relationship type (or attribute), is used to represent the meaning of the association between the source and destination concepts. There are different types of relationships available within SNOMED CT. Descriptions Descriptions are the human readable terms that are associated with clinical ideas. Each description has a description type and may be marked "preferred for use" in particular languages or dialects. A fully specified name (FSN) is a type of description which uniquely and fully captures the meaning of the clinical idea. Synonyms are descriptions that allow the same concept to be expressed in different ways, each of which are associated with the same concept ID. How is SNOMED CT used? SNOMED CT itself is only a part of the solution to addressing the requirements for effective electronic health records. A terminology on its own 'does nothing'. To benefit from use of a clinical terminology, it must be implemented and used as part of an application. The design of the software application in which it is used, and the objectives and motivation of its users, are key factors in determining success. SNOMED CT is critical for clinical documentation, as it supports the representation of detailed clinical information in a way that can be processed automatically. Realization of the capability of SNOMED CT to support clinical information and meaning based retrieval requires careful consideration of the actual setting, in terms of scope of use, record structure, data entry, data retrieval and communication. Benefits SNOMED CT based clinical information benefits individual patients and clinicians as well as populations while supporting evidence-based care. The use of an electronic health record improves communication and increases the availability of relevant information. If clinical information is stored in ways that allow meaning-based retrieval, the benefits are greatly increased. The added benefits range from increased opportunities for real time decision support to more accurate retrospective reporting for research and management. Benefits to individuals SNOMED CT enabled clinical health records benefit individuals by: Enabling clinical information to be recorded consistently Enabling support systems to check the record and provide real-time advice Supporting the sharing of appropriate information with others involved in delivering care, allowing the understanding of the information in a common way by all providers Allowing accurate and comprehensive analysis that identifies patients who require follow-up or changes of treatment Removing language barriers – SNOMED CT enables multilingual use Benefits to populations SNOMED CT enabled clinical health records benefit populations by: Facilitating early identification of emerging health issues, monitoring of population health and responses to changing clinical practices. Enabling accurate and targeted access to relevant information, reducing costly duplications and errors. Enabling the delivery of relevant data to support clinical research and contribute evidence for future improvements in treatment. Enhancing audits of care delivery with options for detailed analysis of clinical records to investigate outliers and exceptions. Supporting evidence-based healthcare SNOMED CT enabled clinical health records support evidence-based care by: Enabling links between clinical records and enhanced clinical guidelines and protocols. Enhancing the quality of care experienced by individuals. Reducing costs of inappropriate and duplicative testing and treatment, limiting the frequency and impact of adverse healthcare events. Raising the cost-effectiveness and quality of care delivered to populations.

We will show how SNOMED CT Clinical Drugs are used to represent generic information about medicines to enable substance based prescription, including how adjustments are made to accomodate clinical needs where regulatory data falls short. Back View Map Norwegian Directorate of Health (1 of 3) Snomed CT for substance based prescriptions Read More Country / Region EMEA Tags Clinical Practice, Implementation, Mapping, Patient safety We will show how SNOMED CT Clinical Drugs are used to represent generic information about medicines to enable substance based prescription, including how adjustments are made to accomodate clinical needs where regulatory data falls short. Description The scope of the project was to facilitate substance based prescription. For this, the SNOMED CT was applied. The Norwegian Catalogue for Drug Information delivers regulatory pharmaceutical data on brand level, brand identifiers. In order to bridge the gap between regulatory information and clinical needs, a service was set up to generate a map set. The scope of the service excluded blood products, vaccines, and medications with more than three active ingredients. Scope The basis for the substance based prescription is the Clinical Drug level in SNOMED CT. All Clinical Drugs contain the relationships Has manufactured dose form, Count of base of active ingredient, Has precise active ingredient (PAI), Has basis of strength substance (BoSS), as well as information about strength numerator and denominator values. These relationships are the foundation for connections for decision support. An automated map generator produces weekly one-to-many maps between one Clinical Drug and one or more brand identifiers from The Norwegian Catalogue for Drug Information, to continuously include new brand identifiers entering the market. This automated map set presently comprises about 8000 maps. Several refinements are done manually or semi-automatically to the map set after generation. Maps where all relationships of the brand identifier except for PAI are identical, are redirected to the same Clinical Drug. Brand identifiers identified by clinical experts to represent products used for both injection and infusion are likewise redirected to the corresponding Clinical Drug with dose form "...for infusion or injection". Additionally, some manual adjustments are done without pre-defined rules, due to clinical needs requested by clinical experts or experts in the NRC. A set of pharmaceutical products with spesific substances, mechanisms of action and/or dose form formulations are excepted from substance based prescription. Maps containing such Clinical Drugs are removed from the map set before distribution. How SNOMED CT will be used The possibility for substance based prescription by use of SNOMED CT made it a relevant terminology for medication purposes. Furthermore, using SNOMED CT for multiple modules in an EHR facilitates decision support based on relationships in the terminology and thus a coherent health service.

Human Phenotype Ontology Back Human Phenotype Ontology Research Partner In 2022, the Monarch Initiative signed a five-year collaboration agreement with SNOMED International to develop maps from the clinical terminology SNOMED CT to Human Phenotype Ontology (HPO), a standardized vocabulary of phenotypic abnormalities encountered in human disease, and to HPO from SNOMED CT. Additional information HPO is a flagship product of the Monarch Initiative , a US National Institutes of Health -supported international consortium dedicated to semantic integration of biomedical and model organism data with the ultimate goal of improving biomedical research, and an integrative data and analytic platform connecting phenotypes to genotypes across species, bridging basic and applied research with semantics-based analysis. It is also a central component of one of the 13 driver projects in the Global Alliance for Genomics and Health strategic roadmap. As part of the agreement, the organizations will work together to develop mapping conventions by which both maps will be created, along with use cases. Both organizations will also collaborate on quality assurance, promoting the maps to their respective stakeholders and defining and agreeing upon an ongoing maintenance and updating process and policy for the developed maps. Press Release: February 2023: SNOMED and the Monarch Initiative collaborate to develop two-way maps for HPO Subscribe to SNOMED International news Stay up to date on SNOMED news, features, developments and newsletters by subscribing to our news service.
