| Guide for use: | All therapies prescribed during pregnancy should be recorded. Therefore more than one code can be selected when reporting this item. CODE 2 Oral hypoglycaemic This code includes the options of sulphonylurea, biguanide (e.g. metformin), alpha-glucosidase inhibitor, thiazolidinedione, meglitinide, combination (e.g. biguanide and sulphonylurea), or other. CODE 3 Diet and exercise This code includes the options of generalised prescribed diet; avoid added sugar/simple carbohydrates (CHOs); low joule diet; portion exchange diet and uses glycaemic index and a recommendation for increased exercise. CODE 9 Not stated/inadequately described To be recorded by data entry personnel (state/territory health authority) if the data field is left blank or is inadequately completed in the perinatal data collection form or extract. Clinicians should not record Code 9. |

Collection and usage attributes | |
| Collection methods: | Jurisdictions that record perinatal data using the ICD-10-AM should apply the following codes: 'Code 1 Insulin' is equivalent in the ICD-10-AM to a code in the range O24.1–24.9 used in conjunction with the fifth character '2' (insulin treated). 'Code 2 Oral hypoglycaemic' is equivalent in the ICD-10-AM to a code in the range O24.1–24.9 used in conjunction with the fifth character '3' (oral hypoglycaemic therapy). 'Code 3 Diet and exercise' is equivalent in the ICD-10-AM to a code in the range O24.1–24.9 used in conjunction with the fifth character '4' (other; diet; exercise; lifestyle management). For example, for a mother who has pre-existing Type 2 diabetes mellitus and uses oral hypoglycaemic therapy and insulin, this would be coded in the ICD-10-AM as O2412 and O2413 and would be reported against this data item using Codes 1 and 2. |
