  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.

  3. Methodology

    We have prepared this codelist to identify the presence of a mechanical or metal valve. We did not include codes like "prosthetic " as it does clearly identify metal/mechanical valves.
