Overview
•Multiple cause of death data
• ICD revisions and modifications
•Matrices for ICD classification• External Cause of Matrix (ICD-9, ICD-9 CM, ICD-10)
• Barell Injury Diagnosis Matrix (ICD-9 CM)
• Injury Mortality Diagnosis Matrix (ICD-10)
•Present 2002 multiple cause data using ICD-10 injury diagnosis matrix
•Discuss some methodological considerations
Multiple cause data for injury deaths
Up to 20 conditions mentioned on death certificate including …
•External cause of injury•Underlying cause•*U,V,W,X,Y codes
•Injury diagnoses•S and T codes
•Other diagnoses•A,B,C…R codes
External cause
•External cause of death
•Always selected as underlying cause for injury deaths
•Mechanism (e.g. car crash, firearm)
•Intent (e.g. unintentional, suicide)
•External cause matrix •Cross classifies by mechanism &
intent
•Gaining widespread national and international use
External cause matrix-basic structure

Suffocation
Etc…..
ICD revisions and modifications in US
• International Classification of Diseases
•Classifies ALL health conditions
•9th and 10th revisions•ICD-9 Mortality: 1979 - 1998 •ICD-10 Mortality: 1999 - present
•Clinical modifications for morbidity•ICD-9 CM currently in use in US •ICD-10 CM developed – implementation?
Barell Matrix
•Standard for presenting injury morbidity data
•Body region by nature of injury
• ICD-9 CM codes
•STIPDA recommended as method to present morbidity data
•Chartbook from NCHS on National Hospital Discharge Survey and included in annual tables
ICD-10 Injury mortality diagnosis matrix
• Over 1,200 ‘S’ or ‘T’ codes describe fatal injuries
• Summarized ….
•Body region (e.g. thorax, extremities)•43 17 5 categories
•Nature (e.g. fracture, open wounds)•19 16 categories

Injury deaths, US, 2002
•161,269 deaths with underlying cause injury
•246,065 injuries mentioned on death certificate
•1.5 injury diagnoses per death
•Ratio varied by cause & intent
Multiple injury deaths
Many methods to analyze. For example:
•Total mentions of injury diagnoses
•Any mention in a category (selected)
•Main injury or first listed injury
•Weighted total mention –
weight = 1/total number of injuries per death
Number of Mentions: ‘Total’, ‘Any’ & ‘Weighted total’
