The World Health Organization (WHO) International classification of diseases (ICD) is the most commonly employed diagnostic coding method used in health-related administrative data, currently at its tenth revision (ICD-10).
The most common single overdose-related code used was “T50.9: Other and unspecified drugs, medicaments and biological substances”. The official WHO definition states the ‘T50.9’ code is applicable when substances are ‘not elsewhere classified’, listing examples of “acidifying agents, alkalizing agents, immunoglobulin, immunologicals, lipotropic drugs and parathyroid hormones and derivatives” [ 31 ]. These substances are highly unlikely to be the most common primary cause of drug overdose in our cohort of PWID with a known predilection for the use of heroin, other opioids and stimulants. Our findings therefore suggest that, in clinical practice, it appears ‘T50.9’ is being adopted as a means to classify encounters where ‘unknown’ or ‘unspecified’ substance (s) are involved. The ‘F19.-’ category, encompassing codes F19.0-F19.9, was the most common diagnostic category seen in the cohort, representing “mental and behavioural disorders due to multiple drugs and psychoactive substances”. Once again, this category is non-specific, referring to ‘multiple drugs’ but not implicating any specific agent or drug class. WHO recommends ‘F19.-’ codes are used in cases when “two or more psychoactive substances are known to be involved but it is impossible to assess which substance contributed most” or “when the exact identity of some or all the psychoactive substances being used is uncertain or unknown” [ 31 ]. It is plausible that, despite clinicians’ intensive efforts in ED, the specific substances involved in a drug overdose cannot be identified. However, the high frequency use of this code within a cohort of known PWID with relatively stable drug usage patterns [ 19] suggests that other contextual factors, such as a lack of understanding of the importance of detailed clinical documentation for surveillance efforts, insensitive data collection tools and competing priorities in a busy ED, may be influencing non-specific coding practices as well. Studies have shown insufficient awareness about ICD-10 coding practices amongst both clinicians and trained coders [ 16, 22] and there has been criticism that the significantly abridged ICD-10 codes do not adequately capture all substances, particularly new and emerging drugs, forcing clinicians’ diagnoses to be mapped back to inappropriate codes [ 15 ]. It is unclear, however, whether increasing the number and specificity of codes available will yield more accurate data. Our study revealed that majority (83%) of overdose encounters with F or T code diagnoses had only a primary diagnosis recorded, despite the option for clinicians to record up to three. In the context of general medical or surgical presentations, a single diagnosis may be appropriate and reflect single organ system dysfunction, however in the context of drug poisoning or overdose, co-ingestion is increasingly common and warrants numerous diagnostic entries to reflect each involved substance. In the busy ED setting, broad non-specific headings such as ‘other and unspecified drugs’ or ‘multiple drugs and psychoactive substances’ may appear convenient and all-encompassing default options to indicate polysubstance overdose, rather than individually entering multiple different agents.
There was a wide dispersion of F and T codes within the cohort, implicating up to seven different drug classes and 18 different substances as primary causes of overdose. Within our cohort, whose patterns of drug use have been well characterised and predominantly involve the use of heroin, other opioids and stimulants [ 5 ], this suggests a high degree of misclassification of overdoses and poisonings within the ED. It is well recognised that ED clinicians face numerous diagnostic challenges in classifying drug overdoses. A prospective observational study in a large, tertiary ED in Melbourne, Australia showed that clinicians’ impressions of the substances involved in suspected recreational drug overdose matched laboratory blood tests in 78% of cases, however this figure dropped to 46% when exploring opioids specifically [ 24 ]. In a culture where co-ingestion is increasingly common, and pre-hospital naloxone administration (an opioid antagonist) is widely available, the classic opioid poisoning toxidrome of pupillary meiosis, respiratory depression and stupor may not manifest [ 25 ]. Toxicological assays are not yet rapid or reliable enough to be clinically useful in acute overdose [ 26] and precise identification of the causative agent may be clinically irrelevant in the ED context with critically unwell, obtunded or agitated patients who require immediate, symptom directed, supportive care regardless of aetiology [ 25 ]. Many overdoses are managed by ambulance services in the community itself without requiring subsequent hospitalisation [ 27, 28, 29 ], however Victorian ambulance clinical practice guidelines recommend that patients who have not responded within ten minutes to naloxone treatment in the community or have other complicating features should be brought to hospital [ 30 ]. This increases the complexity of the ED casemix, further challenging clinicians’ abilities to accurately identify the substances involved in overdoses or poisonings. An additional effect of this on ICD-10 coding may be that, even if an opioid overdose is the underpinning primary event, the clinical diagnosis chosen in ED may pertain to the complicating features necessitating transportation to ED, rather than the overdose itself. For example, a clinician may enter a diagnosis reflecting ‘polysubstance overdose’ because the patient failed to respond to community administered naloxone or record only the medical complications of overdose such as aspiration pneumonia. These coding practices limit the sensitivity and specificity of ICD-10 codes in detecting overdose presentations.
There is a disconnect between the idealised usage of the ICD-10 codes and its application in everyday practice. Broad, non-specific coding with single primary diagnoses are frequently employed within EDs to classify drug overdoses and therefore reliance on diagnoses alone when examining ED data will likely significantly underestimate incidence of drug overdose for any specific drug. Nonetheless, EDs are at the coal face of serious overdoses and can still play a valuable role in drug surveillance. Further work is needed to determine the best way to use ED data in syndromic surveillance.
People who inject drugs (PWID) experience disproportionate morbidity and mortality related to their drug use [ 1, 2 ]. Opioid overdose, in particular, is a leading cause of mortality amongst PWID [ 1 ]. Non-fatal opioid overdose is common amongst PWID [ 3, 4, 5, 6] and associated with an increased risk of subsequent fatal overdose [ 7, 8 ]. Monitoring overdose occurrence therefore presents a key surveillance target and a potential opportunity to inform interventions to reduce opioid related deaths.
