This project aims to enhance antibiotic stewardship and infection prevention through the use of SNOMED CT for structured indication registration in antibiotic prescribing. By linking each prescription to a standardized, SNOMED CT-based indication, we ensure precise and interoperable clinical data, which is essential for improving antibiotic use across healthcare systems. As part of the early-phase HOST project, we are implementing SNOMED CT within the electronic health record (EHR) to systematically code clinical indications for every antibiotic prescription. This structured approach improves documentation of the clinical rationale behind antibiotic use, making it transparent and consistent. Beyond supporting better decision-making at the point of care, the indication registry also facilitates secondary uses of data for quality improvement, antimicrobial stewardship, and research. While still in its initiation phase, we anticipate that this approach will enable the development of a data-driven antibiotic policy, reduce unnecessary antibiotic use, and help mitigate resistance. By using SNOMED CT, a standardized and globally recognized clinical terminology, we ensure both local and international interoperability, positioning the project to contribute to the long-term sustainability of integrated healthcare. This work underscores the value of structured clinical terminology in an information-driven healthcare environment, helping create a more transparent, evidence-based approach to antibiotic prescribing while fostering the integration of health data across systems and institutions.

This work underscores the value of structured clinical terminology in an information-driven healthcare environment, helping create a more transparent, evidence-based approach to antibiotic prescribing while fostering the integration of health data across systems and institutions. Description This project focuses on enhancing antibiotic stewardship and infection prevention by implementing SNOMED CT for structured indication registration within antibiotic prescribing workflows. As part of the early-phase HOST initiative, our primary aim is to integrate SNOMED CT into our electronic health record (EHR), KWS, to systematically capture the clinical rationale behind each antibiotic prescription. By linking prescriptions to standardized SNOMED CT-based indications, we aim to support better clinical decision-making, ensure consistency in documentation, and enable meaningful secondary data use for quality monitoring, policy development, and research. Though currently in its initiation phase, the project is designed as a scalable, interoperable model for sustainable, evidence-driven antimicrobial management. Scope SNOMED CT was selected for its comprehensive clinical scope, standardized structure, and robust international interoperability, making it the most widely adopted clinical terminology system globally. As the mandated national standard in Belgium, its adoption aligns with strategic guidance from national healthcare bodies such as the eHealth Platform, while also ensuring seamless alignment with international standards such as HL7, ICD, and LOINC. This dual compliance guarantees consistency with both national policy and global healthcare interoperability frameworks, fostering cross-border data exchange and collaboration. Using SNOMED CT ensures that antibiotic prescribing data are not only precise and clinically meaningful but also interoperable across systems and borders. Its structured approach supports data reuse for stewardship, research, and policy development, helping to address both immediate clinical needs and long-term public health goals such as combating antimicrobial resistance. By adopting SNOMED CT, Belgium not only strengthens its national health data infrastructure but also positions itself as an active participant in the global digital health landscape, enabling cross-border patient care, interoperable EHR systems, and worldwide clinical research initiatives. How SNOMED CT will be used SNOMED CT is being implemented within the EHR as the standardized terminology for capturing the clinical indication behind each antibiotic prescription. Every prescribing action is linked to a coded indication, mapped to a corresponding SNOMED CT concept that accurately represents the clinical reason for treatment. The indication registry serves not only as a foundation for better care at the point of prescription but also enables robust secondary use of data for quality improvement, antimicrobial stewardship, surveillance, and research. The goal is to make this process embedded and streamlined within the clinical workflow, minimizing manual input while ensuring rich, standardized data capture.

- Syadem and SNOMED collaboration supports vaccination information interoperability
Syadem and SNOMED collaboration supports vaccination information interoperability Back 25 Apr 2024 Back SNOMED International is excited to announce a new collaboration with France-based company SYADEM that aims to deliver a comprehensive terminology system to health organizations, enabling them to accurately represent administered vaccines. SYADEM owns and manages the Unified Nomenclature of Vaccines ( NUVA ), a terminology used to capture, interpret, and process records of administered vaccines. SYADEM participates in the European Vaccination beyond COVID (EUVABECO) project, which is co-funded by the European Commission under the eU4Health program. By mid 2026, EUVABECO will deliver implementation plans for innovative vaccination practices to EU Member States. The plans will support the operationalization of several tools including a portable European Vaccination Card (EVC). NUVA is the intended code system for documenting administered vaccines in the EVC. Through a five-year agreement, this collaboration aims to facilitate the creation of comprehensive vaccination histories for individuals over time, regardless of the original vaccine source and data format. As part of the agreement, SNOMED CT and SYADEM will collaborate to integrate NUVA content as an extension in SNOMED International’s Community Content Area. Furthermore, they will define processes for ensuring content alignment and, where relevant, NUVA concepts will be included in the SNOMED CT International Edition. The collaboration will harmonize NUVA and SNOMED CT terminologies, offering users flexibility in code selection, facilitating smooth implementation. SNOMED CT is a comprehensive, multilingual healthcare terminology created for use by healthcare professionals. It enables the care of individuals to be captured in electronic health records, facilitating information sharing, decision support and analytics for safe and effective health information exchange. NUVA, developed by vaccinologists, is both a vocabulary and a comprehensive knowledge base. Its purpose is to capture vaccine information that is relevant for clinical decision-making, regardless of the record’s format - either digital or paper. It then acts as a universal coding system that enhances the transcription and transferability of vaccine information across various terminologies, complementing rather than replacing existing systems. NUVA and SNOMED CT complement each other: NUVA provides codes for current and historical vaccines, while SNOMED CT provides codes that represent the foundational concepts for contextualizing this vaccine information. The SNOMED International Drug Extension User Support Group has endorsed the approach, recognising that the collaboration facilitates a unified approach to the collection of vaccine information over time. SNOMED International CEO Don Sweete says, “In addition to providing a solution that will meet both clinical and regulatory requirements globally, the collaboration will demonstrate the benefits of using SNOMED CT as a foundation to model. When we talk about SNOMED CT as the global language of health, this is what we mean,” he adds. “We get closer to making that a reality with every new content-focused collaboration. The COVID-19 pandemic consolidated for everyone the need for greater healthcare data interoperability, and this partnership moves that forward.” Jean-Louis Koeck, Scientific Director at SYADEM, shared, “SYADEM is dedicated to making NUVA a common good, publicly available to any user. Furthermore, we are exploring the possibility of transitioning ownership of NUVA to a community of stakeholders in the near future, as part of our dedication to shared health advancements. Our collaboration with SNOMED CT represents a significant milestone in this journey.” Contact info@snomed.org for more information.

Hungary joins a community of 49 Members globally within the SNOMED community. It is the fifth following the announcement of EU funding for Member states wishing to adopt SNOMED CT. Hungary Hungary joins a community of 49 Members globally within the SNOMED community. It is the fifth following the announcement of EU funding for Member states wishing to adopt SNOMED CT. Contact Details Website: www.eszfk.hu Email: snomed@eszfk.hu Appointed Representatives General Assembly: TBA Member Forum: Zoltán Falussy and Krisztián Iszak News articles Since launching an electronic patient record system in 2017, Hungary’s efforts to further digitize its healthcare system were spurred in part—as in many countries—by the COVID-19 pandemic. Despite the early adoption of electronic health data collection, data quality and the need for standardization remain major issues. The National eHealth Infrastructure (EESZT) ensures technical interoperability, but semantic interoperability continues to be a challenge. Hungary’s strategic goal is to improve data quality and introduce standardized terminology to ensure effective integration and management across the entire healthcare system, with the aim of strengthening the country’s healthcare resources, infrastructure, and service delivery. Joining SNOMED International represents an important milestone in strengthening the semantic interoperability of Hungary’s digital health records. The adoption of SNOMED CT will support the standardized, structured, and computable representation of clinical information - including diagnoses, clinical findings, procedures, and other health concepts - across interconnected systems. Among the notable initiatives supporting the development of digital health in Hungary is a recent study in which Hungarian researchers, as part of the European Health Data and Evidence Network (EHDEN) project, mapped more than 6,000 inpatient and outpatient care codes to SNOMED CT. The goal of the EHDEN project is to reduce the time required to provide responses in real-world health research by establishing the necessary infrastructure within a pan-European, consolidated network, fostering collaboration in research methodologies, and supporting education within the framework of open scientific collaboration.
