OSIICS / OSICS - VERSION HISTORY
Please make an acknowledgement of OSIICS / OSICS whenever you use this in a commercial project or scientific paper
As usage has expanded, partly due to its free availability, OSICS has been revised many times. A recent study found that OSICS-8 led to a fair degree of agreement between 3 coders (Rae K, Britt H, Orchard J, Finch C. Classifying sports medicine diagnoses: a comparison of the International classification of diseases 10-Australian modification (ICD-10-AM) and the Orchard sports injury classification system (OSICS-8). British Journal of Sports Medicine 2005;39:907-911). OSICS was considered superior to ICD-10-AM in this respect and was significantly faster to use when applied to sports medicine diagnoses.
OSICS was updated to version 6 in 1998, version 7 in 2000 and version 8 in 2002. In 2005, it was determined that, for some purposes, there were permanent inadequacies in a three character coding system. Therefore, a four character system was created in 2007. It was named OSICS version 10 as it was envisaged that there would still be a role for a three character system and that when OSICS-8 was updated it should be called OSICS-9. Minor updates which only change a few codes can be made, with versions progressing using a decimal point (for example, the most recent version is OSICS-10.1 which is only marginally different to OSICS-10).

OSICS-9
Excel version of OSICS9 [XLS file]
Print version of OSICS9 [PDF file]
Database version of OSICS8-10 [MDB file]
OSICS-9 was released in 2010 and is an updated version of OSICS-8. Like OSICS-8, it is a 3 character system. The three digit system still retains a potential advantage of having fewer choices for the user and therefore finding an applicable code from a shorter list may be easier.

OSICS-9 is presented in the paper: John Orchard, Katherine Rae, John Brooks, Martin Hägglund, Lluis Til, David Wales, Tim Wood.

OSICS 10.1

Print version of OSICS10.1 [PDF file]
Database version of OSICS8-10 [MDB file]
OSICS-10.1 was released in 2010 and is a slightly updated version of OSICS-10. OSICS-10.1 is very similar to the original version 10 but contains a few minor modifications.
Like OSICS-10, OSICS-10.1 uses a 4 character system. OSICS 10.1, by virtue of a greater number of codes, is able to give more comprehensive diagnostic differentiation and hence greater diagnostic accuracy than a 3 digit system
