When '''one of the diagnoses in Categories [[:Category:Arrhythmia|Arrhythmia]], [[:Category:Testing|Testing]] or [[:Category:Symptom/Sign|Symptom/Sign]]''' happens repeatedly during the same ward or unit stay, only code the first one.
 
If this happens repeatedly during the same ward or unit stay, only code it the first time it happens, regardless of whether it is an [[Admit Diagnosis]] or [[Acquired Diagnosis]], rather than each time it happens. See [[:Category:ICD10 codes only coded the first time|ICD10 codes only coded the first time]] for other diagnoses coded this way. [[Category:ICD10 codes only coded the first time]]
