In addition, the objective is to enable consistent adoption of SNOMED CT within the domain of adverse sensitivity data by providing guidance on the representation of relevant information with different levels of granularity, with and without the use of post-coordination. 

Scope

This implementation guide is intended to accelerate the consistent implementation of SNOMED CT within the domain of allergy, hypersensitivity and intolerance:

• Extending previous SNOMED International work on definitions of adverse sensitivity
• Surveying and summarizing the relevant interoperability standards
• Advising the SNOMED International community regarding best practice deployment of allergy data within the EHR and identifying the SNOMED CT content that would constitute best practice for use in electronic health records
• Addressing issues using SNOMED in day-to-day clinical practice
• Provide guidance in reconciling substances as allergens with clinical findings representing diseases and propensities as used in problem lists
• Leverage products and substances hierarchy for allergy decision support 

The scope of the work presented in this guide includes:
