Notes

3 items

From V00-Y99:

  • This chapter permits the classification of environmental events and circumstances as the cause of injury, and other adverse effects. Where a code from this section is applicable, it is intended that it shall be used secondary to a code from another chapter of the Classification indicating the nature of the condition. Most often, the condition will be classifiable to Chapter 19, Injury, poisoning and certain other consequences of external causes (S00-T88). Other conditions that may be stated to be due to external causes are classified in Chapters I to XVIII. For these conditions, codes from Chapter 20 should be used to provide additional information as to the cause of the condition.

From Y07:

  • Codes from this category are for use only in cases of confirmed abuse (T74.-)
  • Selection of the correct perpetrator code is based on the relationship between the perpetrator and the victim
