Chapter: XX External causes of morbidity and mortality

ICD-10 Codes range: V01-Y98

Number of Diseases: 2775

This chapter in the ICD-10 classification includes the environmental events, circumstances, and conditions that cause illness (morbidity) or death (mortality). This can cover a wide range of situations such as traffic accidents, falls, drownings, exposure to harmful substances, and the effects of natural disasters. It also includes intentional harm such as self-harm, assault, and warfare. This category does not include specific medical conditions, but instead, the external reasons that such conditions or injuries occurred. Understanding this chapter is key for prevention strategies, safety regulations, and public health planning aimed at reducing these external risks and their associated health impacts.
