Injury, Poisoning and External Causes

Conditions caused by an external agent or exposure rather than by disease arising from within the body, following ICD-10 Chapter XIX (Injury, Poisoning and Certain Other Consequences of External Causes). Belongs here: a disorder caused by an environmental exposure and a disorder caused by workplace conditions not already classified by the organ it damages. Does not belong here: an occupational disease that is classified by the organ system it damages, such as an occupational lung disease, grouped under diseases of the respiratory system.
