Description

This list contains dm+d entries for adrenaline auto-injectors, commonly know as pens, which are used by people when they experience an emergency allergic reaction.

Methodology

All dm+d codes from adrenaline pens from brands that are commonly available in the UK were included. They are

  • Epipen
  • Jext
  • Emerade

Additionally we have included preparations were the BNF codes begins 0304030C0 and the preparation appears to be a pen from its BNF name. We have excluded ampoules as we don't antipate the primary usage of these are for anaphylactic emergency.

Codelists are developed by a broad community of users for individual study purposes, which may or may not meet the needs of other studies. They should not be thought of as universal definitions of a particular condition.

We don't offer any guarantees about what they do or don't identify. Users should carefully check that any codelist meets their needs, and seek clinical input where appropriate.

* dm+d codelists can be downloaded with codes mapped to changed VMPs included - this is the default for an OpenSAFELY project. See the documentation on keeping codelists up to date for more details.


* Note that this is the full list of explicitly included dm+d codes for this codelist. An OpenSAFELY project will by default also include previous or subsequent codes for any included VMPs that may have changed code. See the documentation on keeping codelists up to date for more details.
