Cumulative Official WHO Updates to ICD 10 - 1996 - 2001

ICD-10 diagnosis codes for hip fracture are as follows: S72.0 Fracture of neck of femur S72.1 Petrochanteric fracture S72.2 Subtrochanteric fracture Restricting this indicator to admissions for people who are 60 years old and over will eliminate small number concerns in the lower age groups which would significantly bias the results of the standardisation calculation. ................
