Differences in Disease Capture by Rank for ICD-9-CM and ICD-10-CM for Causes of Mortality: Accidents
| Diseases Related to Mortality: Accidents | ICD-9-CM Rank | ICD-10-CM Rank | Explanation |
| Pedestrian injured in collision with pedal cycle | 3 | 5 | I-10 many more codes/more specific |
| Pedestrian injured in collision with two- or three-wheeled motor vehicle | 3 | 5 | I-10 many more codes/more specific; no codes in I-9 to state that it is unspecified whether traffic or nontraffic |
| Pedestrian injured in collision with car, pickup, or van | 4 | 5 | Number of codes same but I-10 description more detailed |
| Motor vehicle related | 3 | 5 | I-10 much more specific and includes injury; no codes in I-9 to state that is unspecified whether traffic or nontraffic |
| Pedestrian injured in collision with heavy transport vehicle or bus | 3 | 5 | I-10 more codes/more specific |
| Pedestrian injured in collision with railway train or railway vehicle | 3 | 5 | I-10 provides more codes/categories |
| Pedestrian injured in collision with other nonmotor vehicle | 3 | 5 | I-10 provides more categories with more descriptive terminology |
| Pedestrian injured in other and unspecified transport accidents; pedal cycle rider injured in transport accident | 3 | 5 | I-10 more descriptive with additional codes |
| Pedal cycle rider injured in collision with pedestrian or animal | 2 | 5 | I-10 more descriptive with additional codes |
| Pedal cycle rider injured in collision with other pedal cycle | 3 | 5 | I-10 more descriptive with additional codes |
| Pedal cycle rider injured in collision with two or three wheeled motor vehicle | 3 | 5 | I-10 more descriptive with additional codes |
| Pedal cycle rider injured in collision with car, pickup truck, or van | 3 | 5 | I-10 more descriptive with additional codes |
| Pedal cycle rider injured in collision with railway train or railway vehicle | 3 | 5 | I-10 more descriptive with additional codes |
| Motor vehicle related (fractures and other injuries) | 3 | 5 | I-10 much more descriptive with additional codes |
| Falls | 3 | 5 | Although number of codes do not differ much, I-10 has more detailed terminology |
5= Diagnosis is fully captured by the code/codes
4=Diagnosis is almost fully captured by the code/codes
3=Diagnosis is partially captured by the code/codes
2=Diagnosis is less than partially captured by the code/codes
1=Diagnosis is not captured by the code/codes
