An attribute value reference set is a component reference set used to apply a tagged value to a SNOMED CT component . The pattern of the attribute value reference set is similar to that of the association reference set, despite the fact that the components referenced in the valueId attribute must be a subtype of the concept 900000000000491004 | Attribute value| , which include concepts such as:
An 900000000000480006 | Attribute value type reference set| allows a value from a specified range to be associated with a component. This type of reference set can be use for a range of purposes where there is a requirement to provide additional information about particular concepts, descriptions or relationships. In the International Edition of SNOMED CT an 900000000000480006 | Attribute value type reference set| is for example used to indicate the reason why components have been inactivated.
