Users of New Zealand public hospital discharge data can have a high degree of confidence in the injury diagnoses coded under ICD-9-CM-A. A similar degree of confidence is warranted for E-coding at the group level (for example, fall), but not, in general, at higher levels of specificity...
Each approach may pair given AIS code with more than one ICD-9 code (mean number of pairs per AIS code: NTDB=211, ICDMAP=7, CIREN=5), and some of the potential pairs are unrelated. The mappings were evaluated using two comparative metrics coupled with qualitative inspection by an expert...
This rate in the transition month to ICD-10-CM (October 2015) decreased by 41 visits per 100,000 persons (p-value <0.0001), compared to September 2015, and remained low through December 2017, due to the exclusion of "unspecified injury of head" (ICD-10-CM code S09.90) in the ...

Adult patients (≥ 18 years old) diagnosed with sepsis identified from the International Classification of Diseases 9th Edition (ICD-9) code were selected from the MIMIC-III v1.4 database. Patients with AKI before admission to the ICU were excluded. For patients with more than one ICU stay...

Patients with AP were identified using the International Classification of Diseases, 9th Revision (ICD-9) code 5770 and the International Classification of Diseases, 10th Revision (ICD-10) code K85. Sepsis is defined as suspected or documented infection and an acute increase in SOFA score of ≥...
Most patients with TBI had an ICD-9 code for TBI in a single year (81.3%) vs multiple years (18.7%), and the adjusted risk of dementia was similar in both groups (single-year HR, 3.46; 95% CI, 3.34-3.58; multiple-year HR, 3.41; 95% CI, 3.23-3.60). Cox proportional hazards ...
