3. What is ICD-10 ?
International Statistical Classification of Diseases and
Related Health Problems (Tenth Revision) is a system of
coding created by the World Health Organization (WHO)
that notes various medical records including diseases,
symptoms, abnormal findings and external causes of injury.
Classification= Standard (established Common Language)
Grouping Of Diseases by a set of principles.
International= as this Classification that is agreed upon by 195
countries.
Disease= any Deviation from normal health.
5. What is ICD-10 ?
• ICD: is International Classification of Diseases
introduced by WHO which translate diagnosis of
diseases and other health problems from Words
into an Alphanumerical Code to be used
universally.

7. Version vs Revision
There are 9 Revisions produced by WHO before
the current revision which is ICD 10.

9. WHO Family of International
Classifications(FIC)
FIC was created in order to provide a Common Language
for using health information both nationally and
internationally.
The WHO Family of International Classifications in Health
consists of Reference Classifications, Derived Classifications
and Related Classifications.
These Classifications are the building blocks of health
information used for measures to help provide the best possible
health to all people.

11. So, Classifications are Essential
•There are many diseases, and one needs to establish a
Common Language for reporting and data analysis.
•Standard grouping of diseases by a set of principles is
called classification.
12. ICD makes Diseases count
•To make people count, we first need to be able to count
people.
• ICD allows the counting of diseases, injuries, symptoms,
reasons for factors that influence health status, and external
causes of disease and death, such as accidents.
13. Benefits &purpose Of Using ICD
ICD
• Data Standardization and interpretation
ICD
• Easy Data Storage, retrieval & documentation
ICD
• Allow Counting for diseases,injuries, symptoms, reasons for encounter
ICD
• Allow counting for factors that influence health status, and external causes
of disease and death, such as accidents
ICD
• forming a Common Framework and language to report, compare and use
health information both nationally and internationally
ICD
• Data Comparison within populations over time and between different
population at the same point of time
15. ICD-10 has the potential to improve
patient care:
1. Precise description of diseases
2. Better data to fully comprehend patient
medical history
3. Ability to track public health trends in more
detail
4. Streamlined and accurate billing
16. Use of ICD Codes
•The ICD is designed to serve Mortality & Morbidity in:
Public Health, Epidemiology, Prevention, Managing
Health Care, Allocation Of Resources, Outcomes
Monitoring, In Research, Clinical Context And Primary
Care.
•Information is Reported, Categorized, Analyzed,
Presented, and decisions are based on these information
at any level of a health system.
18. ICD-10 Grouping
•In ICD-10 the information about Diseases and Conditions
and their causes is grouped as follows:
• Communicable diseases
• General diseases that affect the whole body
• Local diseases arranged by site
• Developmental diseases
• Injuries
• External causes
Variable Axial
19. AVAILABILITY OF ICD-10
ICD-10 comes either as:
1. Print form (3-volume-set)
2. WHO browser
3. WHO on-line browser:

20. COMPONENTS OF ICD-10
ICD-10 comes as a 3-volume-set of manuals
I - Tabular List of Disease Conditions
II - Instructions for Coding
III - Alphabetic Index of Disease Conditions
24. I-Volume 1
The Tabular List, is an alphanumeric listing of diseases,
disease groups and health related problems in 22 chapters. It
contains Inclusions and Exclusions notes and some coding
rules.
Volume I has 4 main components:-
•A short list of 3-character Categories
•A detailed list of (4& 5)-character Subcategories for all
diseases & causes of injury
•A comprehensive list of the Morphology of Neoplasms.
•Specialized short-lists for mortality & morbidity coding.
25. VOLUME 1
CHAPTERS
eg. Chapter X=Diseases of the Respiratory System (J00-J99)

27. Chapters of Volume 1
has 22 Chapters: arranged in Latin Numbers
NB: When referring to a chapter, you should call it by
its chapter number and not by the letters of the
codes associated with it.
• Chapters I – XVII provide codes to all diseases
• Chapter XVIII covers Symptoms & Signs
• Chapter XIX codes for physical injuries & poisonings
• Chapter XX provides codes only for EXTERNAL causes
of morbidity & mortality
• Chapter XXI compiles codes for all factors influencing health
status & contact with health services of a person NOT
currently sick (eg. Fitness tests, immunizations, contraceptive
management, ante- & postnatal care, etc.)
• Chapter XXII codes for Special Purposes
28. Chapters I – XVII (A-Q) provide codes to all Diseases
• Some are associated with Particular Body Systems.
Chapter XI relates to Diseases of the digestive system
Chapter X is for Diseases of the respiratory system.
•Others are associated with Special Diseases – (these are to capture
types of diseases which might affect either the Whole body or many
different sites or are considered Systemic).
Chapter II Neoplasms
Chapter XV Pregnancy, Childbirth and the Puerperium.
29. Diseases of a specific body system
VI-Nervous
VII-Eye
VIII-Ear
IX-Circulatory
X-Respiratory
XI-Digestive
XII-Skin
XIII-MsSk
XIV-GU
XXII-Special Purposes
Special diseases
I-Infections
II-Neoplasms
III-Blood
IV-Endocrine
V-Psych
XV-Obestet
XVI-Perinatal
XVII-C Anomalies
XIX-Nature of Inj &Pois
30. Chapter XX is for coding External causes of morbidity and
mortality.
Chapter XXI is for coding Factors influencing health status
and contact with health services.
We call these external factors.
31. Chapter XVIII is used to code Symptoms, signs and abnormal clinical and
laboratory findings, not elsewhere classified.
IT IS THE ONLY GENERAL CHAPTER
32. Chapters of Volume 1
A+B = AntiBiotic = infection (bacterial & others) = 1
C+½D = Cancer = 2
½D = blooD = 3
E = Endocrinal (+ nut. & metab.) = 4
F = Foolish = Psychiatric = 5
G = NeuroloGical = 6
H = Head
I = Ischemic Heart = 9
J = = 10
K = exKreta = GIT = 11
L = DermatoLogy = 12
M = MsSk = 13
N = uriNe = GU = 14
O = Obs = 15
P = Paby = Perinatal = 16
Q = Qongenital = 17
R = Rest = Symptoms & Signs = 18
ST = SiTe (nature) of injuries & poisonings = 19
VWXY = EXTERNAL causes of injuries & poisonings = 20
Z = ViZit = contact with health services, not currently sick = 21
U = codes for Special PUrposes = 22
Eye =⅔H = 7
Ear =⅓H = 8
33. Chapter number
Title of the chapter
Range of the chapter (3-character categories)
Inclusions & exclusions at the
chapter level
34. Within each chapter, codes are grouped into blocks.
Blocks are groups which represent related conditions.
You will see a list of the blocks at the beginning of each
chapter.
Volume 1
35. The ICD-10 is divided into chapters. Each chapter is identified by a Roman numeral
(i.e. I, II, III, IV, V etc.) and a title.
The Chapters are further divided into blocks which group together categories
having some common factor.
Blocks are divided into categories (3-character codes), and these in turn may be
subdivided into subcategories (4-character). Certain codes also have a 5th optional
supplementary characters to add more detail.

41. 5-character additional (optional) sub-categories:
ICD-10 allows certain conditions to be classified at the
5th Character level.
These additional SUB-CATEGORIES are found in:
Chapter XIII
Subdivisions by anatomical site (M46.25)
Chapter XIX
Subdivisions to indicate open & close fractures.
Also, internal injuries, with or without open wound
(S42.21)
Chapter XX
Subdivisions to indicate the type of activity being
undertaken at the time of the event (V05.13)
42. Notes
In some countries and data collection
systems, the point before the 4th character
may not be used, but for the purposes of
this course the point should be included in
all exercises.
Wherever possible, you should code to the 4-
character level because health information is
more useful if it is more specific.
Not all codes in ICD-10 have 4th characters,
e.g. G20 for Parkinson’s disease.
(M462)
(M46.2)
44. The 2nd Volume of ICD-10 has the
following main components:-
Introduction
Description
Instructions (how to use the ICD-10)
Important rules & guidelines for the
use of the classification for coding
mortality and morbidity data.
Statistical presentation
History of ICD include WHO-FIC
45. Volume 2 contains rules & guidelines for the use
of the classification for coding mortality and
morbidity data.
47. The 3rd Volume is the INDEX to Volume 1.
It has 3 sections:-
1. Alphabetical Index to all known diseases &
causes of injuries
2. External causes of injury
3. Tables of Drugs & Chemicals
48. Volume 3
The Alphabetical Index, is an Alphabetical List of the
diseases and conditions which have codes in the
Tabular List.
50. The Index contains:
• The 4th character list is provided to be used with categories
O03–O06 and O08. (Section I)
• A Table of Neoplasms (Section I)
• A Table of Land Transport Accidents (Section II)
52. Rule Number 1
Volumes 1 and 3 must be used together
( inseparable) to correctly find codes for each case
(e.g. cause of death or diagnosis).
First, check the Index for a code representing your
diseases. Then, confirm your choice in the Tabular List
53. Rule Number 2
The Special Disease Categories Take Priority
Over The Body System Categories.
54. Example
Ali has a Neoplasm of the lung.
Would his illness be coded under:
•Chapter II Neoplasms or
•Chapter X Diseases of the Respiratory System?
55. Rule Number 3
In Volume 1, British spelling is used but in Volume 3,
American Spelling is used.
57. Conclusion
The International Classification of Diseases is
A way to capture mortality and morbidity data for
reporting
Allows comparison of frequencies of e.g. causes of
death from community level up to the whole world.
