Reference to Word 'changes'
 
The
new
systems
have
introduced
changes
in
the
way
cause
of
death
information
is
handled
and
coded
.
The
main
change
is
a
new
automated
system
to
code
causes
of
death
.

As
well
as
the
benefits
derived
from
automation
,
ONS
has
thus
brought
the
coding
rules
into
line
with
international
practice
.
However
,
all
these
changes
have
an
effect
on
data
from
1993
when
compared
with
figures
for
earlier
years
.

The
two
main
changes
arise
from
a
revised
interpretation
of
WHO
Coding
Rule
3,
and
from
the
absence
of
medical
enquiries
.
More
details
of
the
changes
and
their
effects
on
data
are
