Dear Members, 

The October 2019 SNOMED CT® Alternative Stated Relationship file DEMONSTRATION release is now available to SNOMED International Members, from the MLDS distribution site.

This DEMONSTRATION release provides Members with the opportunity to see the Stated Relationship records as calculated in relation to the January 2019 International Edition, as if the OWL Axiom migration had never happened.  It therefore offers up an alternative view to either that of the July 2019 International Edition release, or from that of the February 2019 Complete OWL file Demonstration release package.  It is NOT a continuation of either the Production International release, or the previous Complete OWL file demonstration releases.  The purpose is solely to provide a view to the community which isolates modelling changes that could impact their products and systems.  For example, assisting in the identification of extension content that was modelled in alignment with now improved/deprecated modelling patterns and editorial policies.  

The DEMONSTRATION release package is distributed for evaluation purposes only. It must not be used in production clinical systems or in clinical settings, or distributed to Affiliate Licensees or any third parties at this time.  

All files distributed to SNOMED International Members for the October 2019 DEMONSTRATION Release are available from the “October 2019 v0.1 *DEMONSTRATION ONLY*” version in the “Offline & Alpha/Beta versions” section of the “SNOMED CT International Edition” project, which can be found on the “SNOMED Releases” page in MLDS, accessed here (please ensure that you login to MLDS first):

The SNOMED CT DEMONSTRATION release contains SNOMED CT Stated Relationship files in Release Format 2 (RF2) only, distributed in a zipped file archive (the Release Notes are located separately in the same repository as normal):
