Topic based on our discussion during the TUG meeting of 20260310.

Please use this post to submit concepts that you think do not belong in SNOMED because they are obsolete or you think they are unlikely to be used (e.g., some qualifier values or unusual professions).

We could potentially add this topic to agenda for the SNOMED Business Meetings in Vienna, 2026.

A LOT of _event_ concepts that were derived verbatim from ICD

For example those under 242175002 |Accident to watercraft causing mechanical injury (event)|, such as 215561002 |Struck by boat or part thereof after fall or jump from damaged boat, occupant of small unpowered boat injured (event)| and 215565006 |Struck by boat or part thereof after fall or jump from damaged boat, water skier injured (event)| (among many others)
