An electronic representation of the International Classification of Diseases, 10th Revision (ICD-10) was developed using XML. This facilitates integration into healthcare information systems, supporting interoperability.

Area of Science:

  • Health Informatics
  • Medical Terminology
  • Computer Science

Background:

  • The International Classification of Diseases, 10th Revision (ICD-10) is the diagnostic standard.
  • Electronic representation of ICD-10 content, semantics, and rules is needed for modern healthcare systems.
  • European efforts (CEN/TC 251) aim for standardized healthcare classification systems.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop an electronic representation of the ICD-10.
  • To facilitate integration into existing information systems and coding software.
  • To support interoperability across different languages and versions.

Main Methods:

  • Utilized the Extensible Markup Language (XML) for electronic representation.
  • Leveraged XML's framework, technologies, and standard tools for processing.
