A mapping algorithm for International Classification of Diseases 10th Revision codes for congenital heart surgery benchmark procedures.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Administrative billing data are critical to many initiatives in congenital heart surgery. Mapping algorithms for International Classification of Disease, 10th Revision diagnosis and procedure codes to clinical registry procedure definitions will allow identification of surgical cases and account for patient and procedural factors within administrative data. Our objectives were to develop mapping logic to crosswalk International Classification of Disease, 10th Revision procedure codes to 10 Society of Thoracic Surgeons Congenital Heart Surgery Database benchmark and beta-test the algorithm.

Methods

Patients undergoing Society of Thoracic Surgeons Congenital Heart Surgery Database benchmark procedures from 2015 to 2019 were identified and served as the gold standard
