Icd10Code
On this page
A diagnosis's ICD-10 code, with its dot: I21.9.
Use it to record a diagnosis in a form health systems share. For clinical concepts beyond diagnoses, use SnomedConcept.
Shape
One value, held as text in one set form, with no parts: S52.521A.
Example
Icd10Code("I21.9")Icd10Code(raw) checks the text, and text that isn't one breaks the format rule.
text.parse(raw, as: Icd10Code) reads one from text that comes from outside. Text that isn't one at all fails malformed, such as I219, i21.9 or 121.9.
Good to know
- Write it in capitals with its dot.
I219is refused. ==tells you whether two are the same.<andlist.sort_bydon't take it.- A field that holds one counts as personal data (
health), so you don't mark it yourself.
In JSON
A string, in a request, a response or json.write:
"I21.9""J45""S52.521A"
Details
Text form, storage, how it is shown, and operations
Icd10Code is in the group Health, and has been in Jadpo since 0.1.0.
Text form
text.from writes one standard text form, the same form text.parse reads back: I21.9, J45 and S52.521A.
How it is stored
It is stored in one column named for the field, of type text. J45 is stored as 'J45'.
How it is shown to people
text.format(value, locale:) shows it to people in their locale.
With locale: Locale.en_gb:
| Value | Shown |
|---|---|
I21.9 |
I21.9 |
J45 |
J45 |
S52.521A |
S52.521A |
Operations
It also takes text.parse, text.from, text.format, json.read, json.write and ==. How every standard type behaves says how they work.
