This chapter presents the content within SNOMED CT that may be used to support the described use cases. This may include:
For all of the above, examples should be included. Please note that the title of this section may be updated to be more descriptive in relation to the scope of this project (e.g. "Allergy Content in SNOMED CT", or "Epilepsy Content in SNOMED CT" . Notes on target audience for this chapter:

Hypersensitivity encompasses both allergy and non-allergic hypersensitivity. The top-level organizing nodes representing hypersensitivity, allergy, and non-allergic hypersensitivity are referred to as conditions (representing disease states), dispositions (propensities to develop a reaction), and processes (pathological processes underlying the reactions). The disjunctive nature of these conditions is modeled using general concept inclusions (GCIs). Hypersensitivity conditions, including allergy and non-allergic hypersensitivity, are defined in terms of a pathologic process relationship to specific processes in the qualifier value hierarchy.

Allergic conditions are defined as kinds of hypersensitivity diseases, propensities, and reactions with an immunologic basis and are modeled with a pathologic process of the Allergic process (qualifier value) hierarchy. Allergic process (qualifier value) is a child of both the Hypersensitivity process (qualifier value) and Abnormal immune process (qualifier value), and thus allergic diseases and reactions, unlike their non-allergic counterparts, will classify under both Hypersensitivity condition (finding) and Disorder of immune function.

Intolerance
Intolerance (to a substance) is a propensity to an adverse reaction, which is not an allergy or a non-allergic hypersensitivity, and may be idiosyncratic and/or individually specific (as noted in FHIR® Release 4). 782197009 |Intolerance to substance (finding)|is thus a sibling to 609433001 |Hypersensitivity disposition (finding)|and is modeled as shown below:
