There are different syntaxes, or \u201cflavors, \u201d for writing regular expressions – Perl is the most common. The injury<\/a> and drug overdose<\/a> indicator definitions operationalized as Perl regular expressions can be used in statistical programs to identify the presence of included ICD-10-CM codes in ED and hospitalization datasets.[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.24.0″ _module_preset=”default” custom_margin=”-28px|auto||auto||” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.24.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.24.0″ _module_preset=”default” text_font_size=”15px” min_height=”47px” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n Notes About Regular Expressions:<\/strong><\/p>\n \nMost injury codes in ICD-10-CM have 7 characters. As outlined in the indicator definitions, regular expressions include codes that are missing a 7th character for encounter type, and codes truncated any further than this are excluded. Some codes only have 3-6 characters by design (T30-T32, Y07, Y09). This is accounted for and noted where necessary.\n<\/p>\n \nCapture Groups<\/strong> \u2013 parentheses () \u2013 are utilized to improve readability of the regular expressions. Each regular expression is formatted as follows:\n<\/p>\n Capture Group 1<\/strong> \u2013 search pattern for the first 6 characters of the ICD-10-CM code<\/p>\n \u2022 Where applicable, the pipe symbol \u2013 alternation | \u2013 is used within Capture Group 1 to gather multiple 6-character sub-expressions representing the various codes included in the indicator.<\/p>\n \u2022 BLUE<\/span> and YELLOW<\/span> colors are used to show the alternation pattern within Capture Group 1.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n Capture Group 2<\/strong> \u2013 search pattern for the 7th character of the ICD-10-CM code<\/p>\n \u2022 The same 7th character inclusion criteria are generally shared by all codes included in the indicator.<\/p>\n \u2022 PURPLE<\/span> color is used to show Capture Group 2.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n \nThe regular expressions should be updated annually to include any CMS modifications to the code set that affect the indicator definitions.\n<\/p>\n \nIf you are using SAS, PRX functions can be used in the DATA step to harness Perl pattern matching features.\n<\/p>\n \nIf you are using R with these regular expressions replace \u2018\\\u2019 with \u2018\\\\\u2019 and use the option \u2018perl = TRUE\u2019 and \u2018ignore.case = TRUE\u2019 when applicable. In addition, R users can simplify the aforementioned Capture Group 2 by replacing \u201c$|\\b\u201d with \u201c$\u201d.\n<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.24.0″ _module_preset=”default” text_font_size=”15px” min_height=”104px” custom_margin=”-14px||13px|||” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.24.0″ _module_preset=”default” custom_margin=”-45px|auto||auto||” custom_padding=”||0px|||” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.24.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.24.0″ _module_preset=”default” custom_margin=”-44px|auto||auto||” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.24.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_accordion icon_color=”#006AC1″ _builder_version=”4.24.0″ _module_preset=”default” hover_enabled=”0″ border_radii=”on|8px|8px|8px|8px” box_shadow_style=”preset2″ global_colors_info=”{}” sticky_enabled=”0″][et_pb_accordion_item title=”Introduction ” open_toggle_text_color=”RGBA(0,0,0,0.6)” _builder_version=”4.24.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” toggle_font=”||||||||” open=”off”]<\/p>\n This toolkit includes several ICD-10-CM validation datasets:<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_accordion_item][et_pb_accordion_item title=”Purpose ” _builder_version=”4.24.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” open=”off”]<\/p>\n Developing statistical programs that are 100% accurate can be challenging. Often programmers can identify errors within their programs by examining the output. However, if the output seems reasonable, errors in the program may go undetected.\u202f A validation dataset can be used to ensure that your statistical program obtains consistent and accurate results. A validation dataset is a \u201cfake\u201d dataset for which answers to specific questions are either known\u202f<\/span>a priori<\/span><\/i>\u202for agreed upon by a \u201ckey of three\u201d.\u202f\u202f This toolkit contains a \u201ckey of three\u201d for the general injury validation dataset only. See the\u202f<\/span>Glossary<\/span><\/a>\u202fof Terms\/Abbreviations and Concepts for further explanation of this concept.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n \u202f<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/span>Analysts working with ICD-10-CM coded injury and overdose data can run their statistical analysis programs on the validation datasets and compare their results to an \u201canswer key\u201d, to make sure their program is functioning in the expected manner. Using a validation dataset can help analysts reconcile any programming errors and can also ensure that people using different statistical packages or different approaches to programming are obtaining accurate results.\u202f<\/span>The validation datasets included in this toolkit contain fictitious data; therefore, they should not be used for any purposes other than validation of statistical programming.<\/span><\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_accordion_item][et_pb_accordion_item title=”Background ” _builder_version=”4.24.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” open=”off”]<\/p>\n Jurisdictions are frequently asked to collaborate and share data with organizations such as CSTE and CDC for a wide range of projects. With the advent of ICD-10-CM, statistical programs must be updated to reflect the new coding schema with all its added complexities. Not all jurisdictions have the capacity or time to internally validate statistical programs. Currently, there are very few resources publicly available to help practitioners validate statistical programs for analyzing ICD-10-CM coded data.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>\u202f<\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n The intent behind the ICD-10-CM Standardized Validation Dataset project is to provide a simple way for analysts to check the accuracy of their statistical analysis programs, providing the programmer confidence in the results. The tools give jurisdictions an opportunity to work with other jurisdictions on a common dataset and to share programming ideas and techniques. These datasets could also serve as training tools for students and new staff.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n \u202f<\/span>Since its inception, the utility of this approach has been demonstrated through various projects.
