Abstract
Background: The most recent and 11th revision of the International Classification of Disease (ICD-11) is in use as of January 2022, and countries around the globe are now preparing for the implementation of ICD-11 and transition from the 10th revision (ICD-10). Translation of current coding is required for historical comparisons.
Methods: We applied the World Health Organization (WHO) mapping tables to current Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) Lists of ICD-10 coding of underlying causes of death to assess what ICD-11 codes look like in an Alberta sample of causes of death (COD). We prepared frequency tables for a single year of COD in Alberta based on the CDC grouping of COD.
Results: The mapping success rate at the ICD-10 code level for the adult population (> 18 years) was 96.6% and 100% for children (1-17 years) and infants (< 1 year). The mapping success rate by patient was 99.5% for the adult population patient deaths and 100% for children and infants. We mapped ICD-11 codes to identify the ten most frequently reported underlying COD in Alberta for 24,645 deaths in adults, children, and infants in 2017.
Conclusions: Apart from two codes, all ICD-10 codes could be mapped to ICD-11 for underlying COD. These findings suggest that the ability to translate from the two iterations of coding will be feasible for future applications of health services data.
期刊介绍:
Population Health Metrics aims to advance the science of population health assessment, and welcomes papers relating to concepts, methods, ethics, applications, and summary measures of population health. The journal provides a unique platform for population health researchers to share their findings with the global community. We seek research that addresses the communication of population health measures and policy implications to stakeholders; this includes papers related to burden estimation and risk assessment, and research addressing population health across the full range of development. Population Health Metrics covers a broad range of topics encompassing health state measurement and valuation, summary measures of population health, descriptive epidemiology at the population level, burden of disease and injury analysis, disease and risk factor modeling for populations, and comparative assessment of risks to health at the population level. The journal is also interested in how to use and communicate indicators of population health to reduce disease burden, and the approaches for translating from indicators of population health to health-advancing actions. As a cross-cutting topic of importance, we are particularly interested in inequalities in population health and their measurement.
