The International Classification of Diseases 10th Revision Procedure Classification System (ICD-10-PCS) has been developed as a replacement for Volume 3 of the International Classification of Diseases 9th Revision. The development of ICD-10-PCS was funded by the U.S. Health Care Financing Administration. ICD-10-PCS has a multi-axial seven character alphanumerical code structure, which provides a unique code for all substantially different procedures and which allows new procedures to be easily incorporated as new codes. ICD-10-PCS was under development for over five years and the initial draft was formally tested and evaluated by an independent contractor. The final version of the ICD-10-PCS was released in the spring of 1998. The design, development and testing of ICD-10-PCS are discussed.
国际疾病分类第十次修订本手术操作分类系统（ICD - 10 - PCS）已被开发出来，用以取代《国际疾病分类第九次修订本》第三卷。ICD - 10 - PCS的开发由美国医疗保健财务管理局资助。ICD - 10 - PCS具有多轴七位字母数字编码结构，为所有实质上不同的手术操作提供了唯一编码，并允许新的手术操作作为新编码轻松纳入。ICD - 10 - PCS的开发历时五年多，初稿由独立承包商进行了正式测试和评估。ICD - 10 - PCS的最终版本于1998年春季发布。本文讨论了ICD - 10 - PCS的设计、开发和测试情况。
