Collection and usage attributes

Guide for use:

CODE 1 Percutaneous coronary procedure arterial access site

Use this code when the person's bleeding is originating from the site of arterial access for a percutaneous coronary procedure. Procedures may include cardiac catheterisation, percutaneous coronary intervention, angiogram, intra-aortic balloon pump and/or arterial pressure monitoring sheaths.

CODE 2 Coronary artery bypass graft site

Use this code when the person's bleeding is originating from the site of a coronary artery bypass graft.

CODE 3 Gastrointestinal site

Use this code when the person's bleeding is originating from the gastrointestinal area with mechanical instrumentation.

CODE 4 Genitourinary site

Use this code when the person's bleeding is originating from the genitourinary area with mechanical instrumentation.

CODE 5 Intracranial site

Use this code when the person's bleeding is originating from an intracranial site with mechanical instrumentation.

CODE 6 Pulmonary site

Use this code when the person's bleeding is originating from a pulmonary site with mechanical instrumentation.

CODE 7 Pericardial site

Use this code when the person's bleeding is originating from the pericardium, following percutaneous coronary intervention. This code does not include bleeding that is secondary to a coronary artery bypass graft.

CODE 8 Other site(s)

Use this code when the person's bleeding is originating from a site with mechanical instrumentation that is not listed in codes 1-7, such as central line access.

CODE 9 Unidentified site

Use this code when the person has a fall in haemoglobin without an identifiable instrumented site of bleeding.

CODE 99 Not stated/inadequately described

Not for use in primary data collections.
