1 MedDRA 9.1 Review MedDRA Version Changes - General Remarks MedDRA 9.1 Changes Overview MedDRA Version 9.1 Terminology Frequency Distribution

2 MedDRA Changes - General Remarks There are two possible types of changes to MedDRA terminology: simple changes and complex changes. Simple changes are changes to the existing terminology that involve terms at the PT and LLT levels. There are two types of Simple changes: (1) changes introduced by subscribers request and (2) Maintenance changes (also referred to as Associate changes). Maintenance changes are generated as a byproduct of other changes requested by subscribers, or changes introduced by the MedDRA Management Board to preserve consistency within the dictionary. Complex changes involve modifications to HLT, HLGT, and SOC terminology. Currently, the initial MedDRA terminology version release in one specific year (5.0, 6.0, 7.0, 8.0, 9.0) includes both simple and complex changes, and the subsequent release in the same year (5.1, 6.1, 7.1, 8.1, 9.1) represents a simple change of terminology. These changes are based on MedDRA subscribers terminology change requests and on MedDRA terminology maintenance needs identified by MedDRA s maintenance organization reviewers. Please note that as a consequence of implementing some of these changes (e.g. demoting a multiaxial PT, adding a new HLT, etc.) it may be necessary to break the multiaxial links, to re-link the replacement terms, and/or to enable additional terms to be included within a particular SOC. All these changes may require modifications to your existing MedDRA coding, guideline development, and data retrieval practices. Back to MedDRA 9.1 Review

3 MedDRA 9.1 Changes: Overview MedDRA Terminology Version 9.1 released in September 1, 2006 contains simple changes only. These changes include the addition of new LLTs and PTs, LLTs promotions and demotions, LLT changes in the hierarchy (moved under another PT and Primary SOC reassignments), PTs demotions and Primary SOC changes, SSC changes including LLT & PT terms text changes, SMQ changes, and Currency changes.
