* Now that this query is actually running (as of May 9) we are getting false positives where the following medical or iatrogenic things are asking for a mechanism:  
** [[Respiratory tract, foreign body in]] -- incl in categ of no mech required
** [[Respiratory tract, foreign body in]] -- incl in categ of no mech required
** [[Rib, fracture, injury/trauma]] (eg. in context of CPR)
** [[Rib, fracture, injury/trauma]] (eg. in context of CPR) -- if due to CPR, the "mechanism" code is [[Mechanism of injury: other NOS]]
** [[Iatrogenic, mechanical complication/dysfunction, dialysis catheter]] -- incl in categ of no mech required
** [[Iatrogenic, mechanical complication/dysfunction, dialysis catheter]] -- incl in categ of no mech required
* Laura suggested using [[Mechanism of injury: other NOS]], but do we want something more specific?
* See [[:Category:Iatrogenic mechanism]] for another curve ball... some of those may need to be ''allowed'' (but not required) as mechanisms - or do they? }}

* Another possibility would be to introduce the concept of "potential trauma" and change the cross check similar to potential infection. We would need to identify all dxs on the wiki that are potential traumas and might need to be coded with mechanisms. Or, we could decide to do away with this cross check because it's too much trouble? Ttenbergen 20:28, 2019 May 27 (CDT)}}
