COADEX coding system | Patients, n (%) |
---|---|
Current relevance (the patient has been exposed to allergen prior to the current episode of dermatitis, and improves when the exposure ceases) | 319 (49.3) |
Doubtful relevance (Relevance difficult to assess, no traceable relationship between the positive test and the disease | 91 (8.8) |
Exposed (a history of previous exposure but not resulting in dermatitis from that exposure) | 140 (13.5) |
