Because it is possible that an injury event may be classifiable into more than one of these categories, the following prioritization has been established for assigning codes: First coding priority is given to sports. If the injury event involved sports it should be coded as a 1 (Sports) regardless of whether it involved assault, transport or a fall. Code 1 would be appropriate whenever the ICECI Injury Activity Axis would be coded as "sports and exercise during leisure time" (ICECI Injury Activity code 4) regardless of coding on other ICECI Axes. Second priority is given to Assault. If the event did not involve sports but it did involve an assault, then the event should be coded as a 2 (Assault) regardless of whether it involved transport or a fall. Code 2 would be appropriate whenever the ICECI Intent of Injury Axis would be coded as "assault" (ICECI Intent of Injury code 3) and the ICECI Injury Activity Axis would not be coded as "sports and exercise during leisure time" (ICECI Injury Activity code 4) regardless of other ICECI Axes. Third priority is given to Transport. If the event was neither sports nor assault related but it involved transport, then the event should be coded as 3 (Transport) regardless of whether it involved a fall. Code 3 would be appropriate whenever the ICECI External Cause of Injury Axis would be coded as "transport injury event" (ICECI External Cause of Injury code 1.1) and ICECI Intent of Injury Axis would not be coded as "assault" (ICECI Intent of Injury code 3) and ICECI Injury Activity Axis would not be coded as "sports and exercise during leisure time" (ICECI Injury Activity code 4). Fourth priority is given to Fall. If the event was neither sports, assault nor transport related and it involved a fall then it should be coded as 4 (Fall). Code 4 would be appropriate whenever the ICECI External Cause of Injury Axis would be coded as "falling, stumbling, or jumping" (ICECI External Cause of Injury code 1.5) and ICECI Intent of Injury Axis would not be coded as "assault" (ICECI Intent of Injury code 3) and ICECI Injury Activity Axis would not be coded as "sports and exercise during leisure time" (ICECI Injury Activity code 4). Use code 5 (other traumatic cause) for all other known (specified) traumatic causes whenever codes 1 through 4 of this etiology variable do not apply. Paralysis secondary to surgical procedures when the patient does not have a neurological deficit prior to surgery would be coded in this category. Use code 6 (non-traumatic cause) if there is impairment of the spinal cord or cauda equina function that is not caused either directly or indirectly by an external event.

Choose one. This element does not relate to the timeframe associated with the period following diagnosis of NTSCI.

Refer to the Classification Principles and the other extensive instructions in the data set documentation. If the etiology is being classified in a project to a level of detail that does not have any corresponding item in the table for that etiology then 'N/A' (not applicable) should be entered to indicate that the detail is not missing.

Record the date/time according to the ISO 8601, the International Standard for the representation of dates and times (http://www.iso.org/iso/home.html). The date/time should be recorded to the level of granularity known (e.g., year, year and month, complete date plus hours and minutes, etc.).
