The phrase "ais code" is not correct in written English.
Did you mean "ais code" as a specific term or acronym? If you are referring to a specific code or standard, you can use it in contexts related to technology or coding.
Example: "Please ensure that the ais code is implemented correctly in the software update."
Alternatives: "AIS standard" or "AIS protocol".
The centres were asked to grade all injuries according to the Abbreviated Injury Scale (AIS) 2005 or 2005-update 2008 [ 20], reporting the whole seven digit AIS code.
Each approach may pair given AIS code with more than one ICD-9 code (mean number of pairs per AIS code: NTDB = 211, ICDMAP = 7, CIREN = 5), and some of the potential pairs are unrelated.
It should be noted that TBI cases may be allocated more than one AIS code.
The description for each AIS code is contained in the AIS dictionary.
A TBI patient may receive more than one AIS code whereas each patient should receive only one Marshall Class in the Marshall System.
Nevertheless, the AIS code 116002, allocated to superficial penetrating injury to the head, should be interpreted as not accompanied by brain injury.
While most crash research datasets use Abbreviated Injury Scale (AIS) codes to identify injuries, most hospital datasets use the International Classification of Diseases, version 9 (ICD-9) codes.
We felt this better represented the data prior to 2005 and post 2005 AIS coding changes and therefore improved reliability of our data.
The Abbreviated Injury Scale (AIS) coding system was used to classify the participants into the mild (NISS 1 3) and moderate (NISS 4 8) groups based on the NISS (MacEachen et al. 2010).
The injury database was screened for method of injury = sport, type of injury = blunt, region of injury = head, and abbreviated injury scale (AIS) severity score >= 2. The AIS was set at >=2 to avoid problems with changes in AIS coding that were implemented in 2010 in these ED but released in 2005 (Stewart et al. 2011).
For cases coded using ICD-10-CM, RISS (obtained from ICDPIC-R using the methods described) and ISSAIS (calculated by NTDB from AIS codes submitted by hospital trauma registrars) were compared after being categorized as recommended by Copes et al. (Copes et al., 1988) Observed mortality for each category of each method was compared.
