SNOMED International and the International Dysphagia Diet Initiative have signed an agreement to incorporate the IDDSI Framework v2.0 content into SNOMED CT enabling use in electronic records globally. The IDDSI framework consists of a continuum of 8 levels (0 - 7), where drinks are measured from Levels 0 – 4, while foods are measured from Levels 3 – 7. The framework provides a common terminology to describe food textures and drink thickness.
