....lack of tools ensuring good quality and exhaustiveness of diagnosis encoding. Chute et al. reported that only up to approximately 60 of encoding fully matches the original diagnosis [12] Jollis et al. showed that correlation ratios between claims and clinical databases ranged from 0.09 to 0. 86 [13]. We analysed and manually re encoded more than 3,000 consecutive diagnoses issued di rectly from the department of Medicine s discharge letters and found similar results [14] Such data are used for economic measurements, clinical and epidemiological studies and their quality is a serious ....

....should be used. This may mean using information obtained from another procedure or a diagnosis, but then the clinical accuracy of the source should be considered. For example, although ICD diagnosis codes are used for billing purposes, they have been shown to be unreliable for clinical purposes [34]) The tenth criterion relates to the type of domain experts to use in order to determine the reference standard. This choice is also dependent on objectives of the study and is only applicable if the reference standard is to be determined by domain experts. One option is to use the experts who ....
