These values are inherited from V3. "High" does exist but in a different hierarchy - 75540009 |High (qualifier value)|

Severe does have a synonym of "High Grade"

Should we flag up this apparent inconsistency?

418471000|Propensity to adverse reactions to food (disorder)|

or 414285001|Food allergy (disorder)|

419511003|Propensity to adverse reactions to drug (disorder)|

or 416098002|Drug allergy (disorder)|

But very questionable whether (a) passing either of this pair 'adjectival modifier' codes is any more useful than passing the words 'low' and 'high;

and (b) the wisdom and clinical safety of passing a coded clinical statement stating 'high risk' that does not also explicitly include 'of what?'.

Would it be better/safer to pass as new clinical finding codes along the lines of 'high risk of adverse reaction' ?

Actually, the exact meaning of the original valueset is in fact not to grade the likelihood of an adverse event but rather of whether, should an adverse event occur,it is likely to be clinically significant one. A high probability of only trivial reactions would be graded 'low risk'. So passing only 'low risk' may be especially clinically rather ambiguous.
