The definition did not change. Databases released after this date will include the new labels. # All ICD codes are tested for validity prior to generating this variable. Those deemed invalid are classified as Unknown/missing/invalid COD. Those deemed valid but not meeting the definition of any above grouping are classified as Other Cause of Death. The following documents contain an enumeration of valid ICD-8, ICD-9, and ICD-10 causes of death. '+' This variable can be created with or without Mesothelioma (C45) and Kaposi Sarcoma (C46) as separate groupings. The table above documents both possibilities. Note that this is only possible with ICD-10. $ ICD-8 code 192.5 is coded to Other Endocrine including Thymus for age at death <20 years and Soft Tissue including Heart for age at death 20+ years. * External causes of injury and poisoning.
