In addition to the standard properties, the following properties are defined for SNOMED CT:

PropertyData TypeComments
inactivebooleanWhether the code is active or not (defaults to false). This is derived from the active column in the Concept file of the RF2 Distribution (by inverting the value)
sufficientlyDefinedbooleanTrue if the description logic definition of the concept includes sufficient conditions. This is derived from the definitionStatusId value in the Concept file of the RF2 distribution (i.e. If 900000000000073002 |Sufficiently defined concept definition status| then true).
moduleIdcodeThe SNOMED CT concept id of the module that the concept belongs to.
normalFormstringGenerated Normal form expression for the provided code or expression.

In addition, any SNOMED CT relationships where the relationship type is subsumed by 410662002 |Concept model attribute| automatically become properties. Properties that represent SNOMED CT concept model attributes are referred to using their concept id, rather than their human readable term.

For example, the laterality property is represented using the conceptId for 272741003 |Laterality|:concept id '272741003', rather than the term 'laterality':

PropertyData TypeComments
272741003
code

The value of the laterality attribute in the definition of the given code or expression.

272741003
code

The equivalent URI for the Laterality property is http://snomed.info/id/272741003 (see the code system definition).

Note that when a $lookup operation is performed on a SNOMED CT concept, servers SHALL return the full URI for the edition and version being used (see above) in the version property. Other properties are at the discretion of the server and the client.
