  1. Probability of admission – further data sources and issues Colin Cryer IPRU, Univ of Otago, NZ Presented at the ICE on Injury Statistics Meeting, 7-8 September 2006, Washington DC

  2. Other data sources Colin Cryer, IPRU, Univ of Otago, NZ

  3. Issue: Coding frame • Several different coding frames used for diagnosis: eg. ICD-9, ICD-9-CM, ICD-10 • Options • Restrict study to just one of these (eg. ICD-10) • Include all • If all, is ICD-9 to ICD-10 translation good enough for comparison? • To resolve Colin Cryer, IPRU, Univ of Otago, NZ

  4. Issue: Specificity of codes • What specificity of ICD diagnosis code should be used to estimate probability of admission? • Issue • Too specific many diagnosis codes with too few cases • Less specific diagnoses with high Pr(Adm) may be hidden in heterogeneous groups. Colin Cryer, IPRU, Univ of Otago, NZ

  5. Issue: Accuracy of coding • Correspondence of ED and hospital discharge diagnosis codes (Source: Farchi, 7th World Conference) • 62.2% of linked cases, diagnosis concordant* • Higher concordance in older people, and less urgent care • Over 80% concordance for: • Fracture (upper and lower extremities, head and neck, spine, torso), lower extremity crushes/ amputation. *At the Barell matrix cell level Colin Cryer, IPRU, Univ of Otago, NZ
