ICD-11 definition : !markdown Categories in this chapter are provided for occasions when circumstances
other than a disease, injury or external cause classifiable elsewhere are recorded
as diagnoses or problems. This can arise in two main ways: 1. When a person who may
or may not be sick encounters the health services for some specific purpose, such
as to receive limited care or service for a current condition, to donate an organ
or tissue, to receive prophylactic vaccination or to discuss a problem which is in
itself not a disease or injury. 2. When some circumstance or problem is present which
influences the person's health status but is not in itself a current illness or injury.
Such circumstance or problem may be elicited during population surveys, when the person
may or may not be currently sick, or be recorded as additional information to be borne
in mind when the person is receiving care for some illness or injury.;
