Wiki Measles, Sequela

[RaveenaS]

I took a quiz and got half of the answer correct. I’m wondering how one looks up the code for ‘childhood measles from 10 years ago?” I’ve looked under Measles, nothing that suggests it’s a past disease; I’ve looked under Sequela, and Measles is not a subterm. What’s the best process of finding the code? I don’t want an answer of the actual code, I want to know the best process of finding the correct code since it’s not listed as a subterm. Thank you!

Look under SEQUELA, Infectious disease, specified.

You're correct in stating that Measles is not listed under Sequela, so you need to find the general term to describe it. In this case, it's "Infectious disease".
