Description
This is a codelist of all ethnicity codes which ever appear in TPP. SNOMED codes with a zero count are excluded from the codelist.
We are aware that some of the individual codes contained in this codelist are offensive and upsetting. Although these terms are outdated and no longer in routine use, it is necessary to include them in codelists due to the historic nature of the data that is being analysed.
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.
