MORBIDITY

Long-term implementation

Validated attack rate/incidence by subtype of stroke: validated annual subtype (ischaemic, subarachnoidal haemorrhage, intracerebral haemorrhage) of stroke events (first or recurrent) per 100,000 population. ICD codes: non-fatal (occlusion and stenosis of cerebral arteries and cerebral infarction: ICD-9 434, 436; ICD-10 I66; I63, I64 ; subarachnoid haemorrhage: ICD-9 430, ICD-10 I60 ; intracerebral haemorrhage and other non-traumatic intracranial: ICD-9 431-432, ICD-10 I61-I62 ; unspecified acute stroke: ICD-9 436, ICD-10 I64); fatal (ICD-9 430-438 ; ICD-10 I60-I69, G45)

Prevalence of stroke: number of subjects who survived a cerebrovascular event per 100,000 population. ICD code: occlusion, stenosis, thrombosis of cerebral arteries and not specified (ICD-9 434, 436; ICD-10 I66, I64); subarachnoid haemorrhage (ICD-9 430; ICD-10 I60); intracerebral haemorrhage and other non-traumatic intracranial (ICD-9 431-432; ICD-10 I61-I62)
