Left/right eye and wet AMD and laterality in general

Thank you all for discussion.

Here is follow up on this topic. Above in the thread, we indicated ideally targeting international edition.

As of today, the request was processed. (made in US content request system using batch mode). Thank you !

There is no field/column in CRS for the submitter to indicate edition (international or national).

Q1 Is there a way to submit content in a national CRS and specify international edition as target edition? How exactly? If it was decided to go to national extension during processing of the request (in absence of desired edition field) - is there a way to appeal that decision before the submission is processed? (once done in national extension, it is more difficult to post-hoc correct it)

Q2 What is the process exactly of submitting a promotion of concept from national extension to international edition?

Q3: Given instructions of (see link below): “Requests that meet inclusion criteria for the International Release are addressed by ….”. We think our request met those criteria. (needed by more than 1 country) (represented by OHDSI vocabulary WG with international representatives)
