About

Description

A collection of non-specific codes relating to acute respiratory illnesses (ARI) not including pathogen specific codes. Adapted from WHO definition of Influenza-like-illness, whereas with the primary care ARI codelist (see references) fever and cough can be used to build a build a full ILI profile, in secondary care this is more difficult so just the ARI codelist is used. To be used to detect influenza cases with more sensitivity, rather than specificity.

Methodology

Codelist checked by Charlotte Warren-Gash. For full outcome phenotypes see Github issue in references

Codelists are developed by a broad community of users for individual study purposes, which may or may not meet the needs of other studies. They should not be thought of as universal definitions of a particular condition.

We don't offer any guarantees about what they do or don't identify. Users should carefully check that any codelist meets their needs, and seek clinical input where appropriate.
