Codes for common indirect causes of maternal death


Indirect deaths may also be coded using codes in other chapters of the ICD. However, for correct coding it is
essential that reporting on the death certificate mentions clearly in Part 1 that there was mutual aggravation
between the condition and the pregnancy. The list below includes common indirect causes of maternal
death. Rare diseases are covered by the “Other – specify” label. There is an ICD code for most medical and
surgical conditions and coders will follow rules as described in Volume 2 of ICD-10. Countries may wish to
expand this list to include disease common to the country or region (e.g. melanoma in Australia, cancer of
the cervix in South Africa). :

Annex B2: Tabular List of Chapter 15 codes that describe


conditions which are unlikely to cause death but may have
contributed to the death (contributory condition)

Codes from Annex B1 are preferred. Codes from this block should not be selected as the underlying cause of
death if any condition in Annex B1 is present.

When the cause is unspecified, code to “Unknown, Group 8” according to MRG 1244: It is often difficult to
identify a maternal death, particularly in cases of indirect obstetric causes. If there is any doubt that the
cause of death is obstetrical, for example if the conditions entered in Part 1 are not obstetrical but there is a
mention of pregnancy or delivery in Part 2, additional information should be sought from the certifier. This is
particularly important in countries where maternal mortality rate is high. If no additional information can be
found, deaths with a mention of pregnancy and delivery in Part 1 should be considered obstetrical, but not
deaths where pregnancy or delivery is mentioned in Part 2 only.

Further modifications as published in the 11th revision of the ICD may result in changes.

deaths

In order to group and tabulate a perinatal death, the user needs information on the timing
of the perinatal death (antepartum/intrapartum/neonatal) as well as the ICD-10 cause of
death code. The information provided about the cause of death and the maternal condition
should meet the ICD-10 coding rules for assigning a specific code before any tabulation
can be undertaken. The codes included below are indicative for tabulation of data; for
coding deaths, ICD-10 version:2016 and ICD-10 volume 2: instruction manual (2010)
should be utilized.6

ICD-10 codes for maternal
conditions in perinatal death

In order to group and tabulate a perinatal death, the user needs information on the timing
of the perinatal death (antepartum/intrapartum/neonatal) as well as the ICD-10 cause of
death code. The information provided about the cause of death and the maternal condition
should meet the ICD-10 coding rules for assigning a specific code before any tabulation
can be undertaken. The codes included below are indicative for tabulation of data; for
coding deaths, ICD-10 version:2016 and ICD-10 volume 2: instruction manual (2010)
should be utilized.8
