The '''International Classification of Diseases''' ('''ICD''') is a globally used [[Diagnosis|diagnosticmedical classification]] toolused forin [[epidemiology]], [[health management]] and for [[diagnostics|clinical purposes]]. The ICD is maintained by the [[World Health Organization]] (WHO), which is the directing and coordinating authority for health within the [[United Nations System]].<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.who.int/about/en |title=About WHO |access-date=14 March 2014 |url-status=live |publisher=World Health Organization |archive-date=9 February 2014 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140209050225/http://www.who.int/about/en}}</ref> The ICD is originally designed as a [[health care]] classification system, providing a system of diagnostic codes for classifying [[disease]]s, including nuanced classifications of a wide variety of signs, symptoms, abnormal findings, complaints, social circumstances, and external causes of injury or disease. This system is designed to map health conditions to corresponding generic categories together with specific variations, assigning for these a designated code, up to six characters long. Thus, major categories are designed to include a set of similar diseases.
 
The ICD is published by the WHO and used worldwide for [[morbidity]] and mortality statistics, [[reimbursement]] systems, and automated decision support in health care. This system is designed to promote international comparability in the collection, processing, classification, and presentation of these statistics. Like the analogous ''[[Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders]]'' (which is limited to psychiatric disorders and almost exclusive to the United States), theThe ICD is a major project to statistically classify all health disorders, and provide diagnostic assistance. The ICD is a core statistically based classificatory diagnostic system for health care related issues of the [[Medical classification#WHO Family of International Classifications|WHO Family of International Classifications]] (WHO-FIC).<ref name="WHO-FIC">{{cite web|url=https://www.who.int/classifications/en |title=The WHO Family of International Classifications |publisher=World Health Organization |access-date=14 March 2014 |url-status=live |archive-date=22 December 2013 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20131222042324/http://www.who.int/classifications/en}}</ref>
 
The ICD is revised periodically and is currently in its 11th revision. The [[ICD-11]], as it is therefore known, was accepted by WHO's [[World Health Assembly]] (WHA) on 25 May 2019 and officially came into effect on 1 January 2022.<ref>{{Cite news|url=https://www.who.int/news-room/detail/25-05-2019-world-health-assembly-update|title=World Health Assembly Update, 25 May 2019|date=25 May 2019}}</ref> However,On widespread11 adoptionFebruary will likely take some time:2022, the USWHO onlystated adoptedthat [[ICD-10]] in 2015, {{as of|2018|lc=y}} some35 countries stillwere using ICD-9 and eventhe ICD-811.<ref>{{Citecite web |date author=2018-06-20WHO | title=InternationalICD-11 Classification2022 of Diseasesrelease | url=https://www.who.int/health-topicsnews/internationalitem/11-classification02-of2022-icd-11-2022-diseasesrelease |access- date=11 February 2022-03-06 | website=who.int | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/2018062001420420220210221848/https://www.who.int/health-topicsnews/internationalitem/11-classification02-of2022-icd-11-2022-diseasesrelease | archive-date=2010 JuneFebruary 20182022 | url-status=deadlive}}</ref> The [https://icd.who.int/browse11/l-m/en version for preparation] of approval at the WHA was released on 18 June 2018.<ref name="response">[https://www.who.int/classifications/icd/revision/icdprojectplan2015to2018.pdf ICD-11 project plan] WHO team for classifications, terminologies and standards/IER (12 May 2015) Retrieved on 2018-06-01.</ref>
 
The ICD is part of [[Medical classification#WHO Family of International Classifications|a "family" of international classifications]] (WHOFIC) that complement each other, also including the [[International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health]] (ICF) which focuses on the domains of functioning (disability) associated with health conditions, from both medical and social perspectives, and the [[International Classification of Health Interventions]] (ICHI) that classifies the whole range of medical, nursing, functioning and public health interventions.
 
The title of the ICD is formally the '''International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems''', although the original title, International Classification of Diseases, is still informally the name by which it is usually known.
 
In the United States and some other countries, the ''[[Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders]]'' (DSM) is preferred for the classification of mental disorders for some purposes.

==Versions of ICD==
 
===ICD-6===
The ICD-6, published in 1949, was the first to be shaped to become suitable for morbidity reporting. Accordingly, the name changed from International List of Causes of Death to International Statistical Classification of Diseases. The combined code section for injuries and their associated accidents was split into two, a chapter for injuries, and a chapter for their external causes. With use for morbidity there was a need for coding mental conditions, and for the first time a section on mental disorders was added .<ref name=Katsching>{{cite journal|last=Katsching|first=Heinz|title=Are psychiatrists an endangered species?

The International Conference for the Seventh Revision of the International Classification of Diseases was held in Paris under the auspices of WHO in February 1955. In accordance with a recommendation of the WHO Expert Committee on Health Statistics, this revision was limited to essential changes and amendments of errors and inconsistencies.<ref name="volume2"/>
 
===ICD-8a8===
The 8th Revision Conference convened by WHO met in Geneva, from 6 to 12 July 1965. This revision was more radical than the Seventh but left unchanged the basic structure of the Classification and the general philosophy of classifying diseases, whenever possible, according to their [[etiology]] rather than a particular manifestation.
During the years that the Seventh and Eighth Revisions of the ICD were in force, the use of the ICD for indexing hospital medical records increased rapidly and some countries prepared national adaptations which provided the additional detail needed for this application of the ICD.
 
In the US, a group of consultants was asked to study the 8th revision of ICD (ICD-8a) for its applicability to various users in the United States. This group recommended that further detail be provided for coding hospital and morbidity data. The American Hospital Association's "Advisory Committee to the Central Office on ICDA" developed the needed adaptation proposals, resulting in the publication of the International Classification of Diseases, Adapted (ICDA). In 1968, the United States Public Health Service published the International Classification of Diseases, Adapted, 8th Revision for use in the United States (ICDA-8a). Beginning in 1968, ICDA-8a served as the basis for coding diagnostic data for both official morbidity [and mortality] statistics in the United States.<ref name="volume2"/><ref name="cdc">{{cite web|url=http://wonder.cdc.gov/wonder/sci_data/codes/icd9/type_txt/icd9cm.asp|title=International Classification Of Diseases - 9 - CM, (1979)|website=Wonder.cdc.gov|access-date=11 December 2017}}</ref>

The final proposals presented to and accepted by the Conference in 1978<ref>{{cite journal | pmc = 1361216 | pmid=16178999 | doi=10.1111/j.1475-6773.2005.00444.x | volume=40 | issue=5p2 | title=Measuring diagnoses: ICD code accuracy | year=2005 | journal=Health Serv Res | pages=1620–39 |vauthors=O'Malley KJ, Cook KF, Price MD, Wildes KR, Hurdle JF, Ashton CM }}</ref> retained the basic structure of the ICD, although with much additional detail at the level of the four digit subcategories, and some optional five digit subdivisions. For the benefit of users not requiring such detail, care was taken to ensure that the categories at the three digit level were appropriate.
 
As the World Health Organization explains: "For the benefit of users wishing to produce statistics and indexes oriented towards medical care, the 9th Revision included an optional alternative method of classifying diagnostic statements, including information about both an underlying general disease and a manifestation in a particular organ or site. This system became known as the 'dagger and asterisk system' and is retained in the Tenth Revision. A number of other technical innovations were included in the Ninth Revision, aimed at increasing its flexibility for use in a variety of situations."<ref>{{citationCite web needed|author-link=World Health Organization |title=History of ICD |url=https://cdn.who.int/media/docs/default-source/classification/icd/historyoficd.pdf |access-date=FebruaryDecember 201619, 2023 |website=WHO}}</ref>
 
It was eventually replaced by ICD-10, the version currently in use by the WHO and most countries. Given the widespread expansion in the tenth revision, it is not possible to convert ICD-9 data sets directly into ICD-10 data sets, although some tools are available to help guide users.<ref>World Health Organization.

====International Classification of Procedures in Medicine (ICPM)====
====ICPM====
When ICD-9 was published by the World Health Organization (WHO), the [[International Classification of Procedures in Medicine]] (ICPM) was also developed (1975) and published (1978). The ICPM surgical procedures fascicle was originally created by the United States, based on its adaptations of ICD (called ICDA), which had contained a procedure classification since 1962. ICPM is published separately from the ICD disease classification as a series of supplementary documents called fascicles (bundles or groups of items). Each fascicle contains a classification of modes of laboratory, radiology, surgery, therapy, and other diagnostic procedures. Many countries have adapted and translated the ICPM in parts or as a whole and are using it with amendments since then.<ref name="volume2"/><ref name="cdc"/>
 
====ICD-9-CM (United States)====
The ''International Classification of Diseases, Clinical Modification'' (ICD-9-CM) iswas an adaptionadaptation created by the U.S.US [[National Center for Health Statistics]] (NCHS) and used in assigning diagnostic and [[procedure code]]s associated with inpatient, outpatient, and physician office utilization in the United States. The ICD-9-CM is based on the ICD-9 but provides for additional [[morbidity]] detail. It iswas updated annually on October 1.<ref>[[National Center for Health Statistics]], [[Centers for Disease Control and Prevention|CDC]].

Adoption was relatively swift in most of the world. Several materials are made available online by WHO to facilitate its use, including a manual, training guidelines, a browser, and files for download.<ref name="WHO-FIC"/> Some countries have adapted the international standard, such as the "ICD-10-AM" published in Australia in 1998 (also used in New Zealand),<ref>New Zealand Health Information Service.

====ICD-10-CM (United States)====
{{main|ICD-10-CM}}
 
Adoption of ICD-10-CM was slow in the United States. Since 1979, the US had required ICD-9-CM codes<ref>[http://wonder.cdc.gov/wonder/sci_data/codes/icd9/type_txt/icd9cm.asp International Classification Of Diseases - 9 - CM, (1979)]. Wonder.name="cdc.gov. Retrieved on 2014-06-20.<"/ref> for [[Medicare (United States)|Medicare]] and [[Medicaid]] claims, and most of the rest of the American medical industry followed suit. On 1 January 1999 the ICD-10 (without clinical extensions) was adopted for reporting mortality, but ICD-9-CM was still used for [[morbidity]]. Meanwhile, NCHS received permission from the WHO to create a clinical modification of the ICD-10, and has production of all these systems:
* [[ICD-10-CM]], for [[diagnosis code]]s, replaces volumes 1 and 2. Annual updates are provided.
* [[ICD-10-PCS]], for [[procedure codes]], replaces volume 3. Annual updates are provided.
 
On 21 August 2008, the [[US Department of Health and Human Services]] (HHS) proposed new code sets to be used for reporting diagnoses and procedures on health care transactions. Under the proposal, the ICD-9-CM code sets would be replaced with the ICD-10-CM code sets, effective 1 October 2013. On 17 April 2012 the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) published a proposed rule that would delay, from 1 October 2013 to 1 October 2014, the compliance date for the ICD-10-CM and PCS.<ref>{{cite web |url=https://www.cdc.gov/nchs/about/otheract/icd9/abticd10.htm |title=Classification of Diseases, Functioning, and Disability |publisher=[[U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention]] |access-date=29 October 2010 }}</ref> Once again, Congress delayed implementation date to 1 October 2015, after it was inserted into "Doc Fix" Bill without debate over objections of many.

ICD-10-CA is a clinical modification of ICD-10 developed by the [[Canadian Institute for Health Information]] for morbidity classification in Canada.

For the ICD-11, the WHO decided to differentiate between the core of the system and its derived specialty versions, such as the [[ICD-O]] for [[oncology]]. As such, the collection of all ICD entities is called the Foundation Component. From this common core, subsets can be derived. The primary derivative of the Foundation is called the ICD-11 MMS, and it is this system that is commonly referred to and recognized as "the ICD-11".<ref>{{Cite journal | first=Christopher G. | last=Chute | date=2018 | title=The rendering of human phenotype and rare diseases in ICD-11 | journal=[[Journal of Inherited Metabolic Disease]] | volume=41 | issue=3 | pages=563–569 | doi=10.1007/s10545-018-0172-5 | pmid=29600497 | pmc=5959961 | quote=<small>The primary linearization, and the one most users will recognize and likely believe is "the ICD-11", is the Mortality and Morbidity Statistics (MMS) linearization.</small>| doi-access=free }}</ref> MMS stands for Mortality and Morbidity Statistics.

== Usage in the United States ==
In the United States, the [[U.S.US Public Health Service]] published ''The International Classification of Diseases, Adapted for Indexing of Hospital Records and Operation Classification'' (ICDA), completed in 1962 and expanding the ICD-7 in a number of areas to more completely meet the indexing needs of [[hospital]]s. The U.S.US Public Health Service later published the ''Eighth Revision, International Classification of Diseases, Adapted for Use in the United States'', commonly referred to as ICDA-8, for official national morbidity and mortality statistics. This was followed by the ''ICD, 9th Revision, Clinical Modification'', known as ICD-9-CM, published by the [[U.S.US Department of Health and Human Services]] and used by hospitals and other healthcare facilities to better describe the clinical picture of the [[patient]]. The diagnosis component of ICD-9-CM is completely consistent with ICD-9 codes, and remains the data standard for reporting morbidity. National adaptations of the ICD-10 progressed to incorporate both clinical code (ICD-10-CM) and procedure code (ICD-10-PCS) with the revisions completed in 2003. In 2009, the U.S.US [[Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services]] announced that it would begin using ICD-10 on April 1, 2010, with full compliance by all involved parties by 2013.<ref Name="CMS_PressAug2008">{{Cite press release

==Mental health issuesconditions==
The various ICD editions include sections that classify mental and behavioural disorders. The ''ICD-10 Classification of Mental and Behavioural Disorders: Clinical Descriptions and Diagnostic Guidelines'' – also known as the "blue book" – is derived from Chapter {{rn|V}} of ICD-10 and gives the diagnostic criteria for the conditions listed at each [[Diagnosis code|category]] therein. The blue book was developed separately to, but coexists with, the [[Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders]] (DSM) of the [[American Psychiatric Association]]—though both seek to use the same diagnostic [[Nosology#Types of classification|classifications]]. A survey of psychiatrists in 66 countries comparing use of the ICD-10 and DSM-IV found that the former was more often used for clinical diagnosis while the latter was more valued for research.<ref>{{cite journal|last=Juan E.

A position already recognised by the DSM, as well as other classification systems.
 
The ICD is actually the official system for the US,{{Citation needed|date=March 2023}} although many mental health professionals do not realize this due to the dominance of the DSM.
==Mental health issues==
The ICD includes a section classifying mental and behavioral disorders (Chapter V). This has developed alongside the [[Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders]] (DSM) of the [[American Psychiatric Association]] and the two manuals seek to use the same codes. The WHO is revising their classifications in these sections as part the development of the ICD-11, and an "International Advisory Group" has been established to guide this.<ref>[https://www.who.int/mental_health/evidence/en/ Who | Mental Health Evidence And Research (Mer)]. Who.int. Retrieved on 2014-06-20.</ref> Section F66 of the ICD-10 deals with classifications of psychological and behavioural disorders that are associated with sexual development and orientation. It explicitly states that "sexual orientation by itself is not to be considered a disorder," in line with the DSM and other classifications that recognise homosexuality as a normal variation in human sexuality. The Working Group has reported that there is "no evidence that [these classifications] are clinically useful" and recommended that section F66 be deleted for the ICD-11.<ref>{{cite journal|title = Proposed declassification of disease categories related to sexual orientation in the ''International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems'' (ICD-11)|first1 = Susan D.|last1 = Cochran|first2 = Jack|last2 = Drescher|author-link2 = Jack Drescher|first3 = Eszter|last3 = Kismödi|first4 = Alain|last4 = Giami|first5 = Claudia|last5 = García-Moreno|first6 = Elham|last6 = Atalla|first7 = Adele|last7 = Marais|first8 = Elisabeth|last8 = Meloni Vieira|first9 = Geoffrey M.|last9 = Reed|journal = [[Bulletin of the World Health Organization]]|year = 2014|volume = 92|issue = 9|pages = 672–679|doi = 10.2471/BLT.14.135541|pmid = 25378758|pmc = 4208576}}</ref>
 
An international survey of psychiatrists in 66 countries comparing use of the ICD-10 and DSM-IV found that the former was more often used for clinical diagnosis while the latter was more valued for research.<ref>{{cite journal|last=Juan E.

A psychologist has stated: "Serious problems with the clinical utility of both the ICD and the DSM are widely acknowledged."<ref>{{cite journal|last=Geoffrey M.
