Validation of ICD‐9‐CM codes for major genitourinary birth defects in Military Health System administrative data, 2006–2014
Abstract
The Department of Defense Birth and Infant Health Research program is dedicated to birth defects research and surveillance among military families. Here, we assess and refine the validity of International Classification of Diseases, Ninth Revision, Clinical Modification (ICD‐9‐CM) codes for selected genitourinary birth defects in the Military Health System (MHS). We additionally outline methods for the calculation of positive predictive value (PPV) and negative predictive value (NPV), sensitivity, and specificity using a stratified sampling design.
