Charlson Comorbidities in ICD10 codes

Details with Explanation

• The original description by Charlson of what has become the Charlson Comorbidity Index (J Chr Dis 40(5):373-383, 1987) was oriented towards identifying the cumulative burden of pre-existing medical conditions for the purpose of taking account of comorbid conditions that might alter mortality in longitudinal research studies. She identified, by manual chart review, a set of 17 conditions to which were applied weights, resulting in a composite "Charlson Score". Furthermore, in her original schema, these weights were modified by age.

Points are not included in the listings because the score depends on the combination of diagnoses. For example, if a patient has two diagnoses from the same Charlson component, they are only counted once. Also, if a patient has diagnoses from a lesser and more severe component of the same type (e.g. Diabetes without and with complications), only the higher one counts.

This will appear empty but here is where you would edit the content of the table above. {{wikiline ICD10 Charlson | ICD10 = AIDS (disease due to HIV) | ICD10_Code= B24 | Charlson = AIDS/HIV }}

How this page works

#Listing of ICD10 comorbid codes contains a semantic query that lists the data.

#Semantic annotations contains calls to Template:ICD10 Charlson which populates the semantic data that drive the listing. That part can be populated directly from column "wikiline" of the S ICD10 Charlson Comorbids query.
