For example, the proportion of SUDI coded as sudden infant death syndrome (R95) ranged from 32.6% in Japan to 72.5% in Germany. The proportion of deaths coded as accidental suffocation and strangulation in bed (W75) ranged from 1.1% in Germany to 31.7% in New Zealand. Japan was the only country to consistently use the R96 code, with 44.8% of SUDI attributed to that code. The lowest, overall, SUDI rate was seen in the Netherlands (0.19\/1000 live births (LB)), and the highest in New Zealand (1.00\/1000 LB). SUDI accounted for one-third to half of postneonatal mortality in 2002\u20132010 for all of the countries except for the Netherlands.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The proposed set of ICD-10 codes encompasses the codes used in different countries for most SUDI cases.
