  2. Definition

    This codelist was taken from OpenCodelists, created by OpenSAFELY. We recommend viewing this Phenotype on the OpenCodelist website to view the most recent version.

    This lists contains codes used to identify people who may have had diabetes ketoacidosis (DKA). This list was conceived to identify DKA in a specific group of patients in a specific time period, therefore we have been permissive in including unspecific codes which may not be suitable for all studies.

  3. Methodology

    Using the OpenCodelists builder we used search terms

    • dka
    • ketoacidosis
    • acidosis

    Further discussion about further inclusion and exclusion can be seen in GitHub.
