The version of <strong>SNOMED</strong> CT in which this change was made.<br />

Length<br />

Several changes may be made during internal maintenance between one release and the next but only the<br />

net result of these changes is recorded in the distributed Component History Table. Therefore, no more than<br />

one change is recorded for each component in each <strong>Release</strong> Version.<br />

The format for this field is the ISO format date of the release, not the date of the individual change to the<br />

component.The format is "yyyymmdd" so for a release on 10 December 2002 the value would be "20021210".<br />

Please refer to Content History (3.2.7) for details about the special considerations for the <strong>Release</strong> Version<br />

values used for the <strong>SNOMED</strong> CT First <strong>Release</strong> that merged the <strong>SNOMED</strong> RT and Clinical Terms Version 3<br />
