Identifying the Underlying Cause of Death accurately is crucial for effective healthcare policy and planning. The World Health Organization recommends using the ICD-10 system to standardize death certificate coding, a task often supported by semi-aut...
OBJECTIVES: Administrative data are commonly used to inform chronic disease prevalence and support health informatic research. This study assessed the validity of coding comorbidities in the International Classification of Diseases, 10th Revision (IC...
BACKGROUND: International Classification of Disease (ICD) codes can accurately identify patients with certain congenital heart defects (CHDs). In ICD-defined CHD data sets, the code for secundum atrial septal defect (ASD) is the most common, but it h...
BACKGROUND: International Classification of Diseases (ICD) codes utilized for congenital heart defect (CHD) case identification in datasets have substantial false-positive (FP) rates. Incorporating machine learning (ML) algorithms following case sele...
