Within the EPR, SNOMED CT is used for the metadata and in the exchange formats, see here.
SNOMED CT is designed so that the International Edition can be complemented by creating extensions to meet national or local requirements. Since December 2021, the Swiss Extension is available and includes translations in German, French and Italian.
The guidance for Switzerland is that the version
element should only be added when using codes from the Swiss extension.
In the following sections, the usage in instances and value sets is illustrated exemplarily.
To illustrate how the SNOMED CT codes (international vs. Swiss extension) are used in instances, examples of the CH EMED exchange format are shown below.
