Description

This is a list of ICD-10 codes associated with suicide deaths. This particular set of codes relates to sequelae of intentional self-harm; injury or poisoning of undetermined intent. There are also other codes that are relevant for suicide deaths, but this is the subsection related to sequelae.

The following codes appear under the section for Y87; -Y870 Sequelae of intentional self-harm (included) -Y871 Sequelae of assault (excluded) -Y872 Sequelae of events of undetermined intent (included)

Methodology

The list of codes is available in the ICD-10 section on self-harm. The list was reviewed by clinical colleagues in the National Patient Safety team and were flagged as being relevant for suicide deaths.


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.
