| Résumé | Background: Congenital anomalies (CA) are one of the leading causes of infant mortality and long-term disability. Many jurisdictions rely on health administrative data to monitor these conditions. Case definition algorithms can be used to monitor CA; however, validation of these algorithms is needed to understand the strengths and limitations of the data. This study aimed to validate case definition algorithms used in a CA surveillance system in British Columbia (BC), Canada.
Methods: A cohort of births between March 2000 and April 2002 in BC was linked to the Health Status Registry (HSR) and the BC Congenital Anomalies Surveillance System (BCCASS) to identify cases and non-cases of specific anomalies within each surveillance system. Measures of algorithm performance were calculated for each CA using the HSR as the reference standard. Agreement between both databases was calculated using kappa coefficient. The modified Standards for Reporting Diagnostic Accuracy guidelines were used to enhance the quality of the study.
Results: Measures of algorithm performance varied by condition. Positive predictive value (PPV) ranged between approximately 73%–100%. Sensitivity was lower than PPV for most conditions. Internal congenital anomalies or conditions not easily identifiable at birth had the lowest sensitivity. Specificity and negative predictive value exceeded 99% for all algorithms.
Conclusion: Case definition algorithms may be used to monitor CA at the population level. Accuracy of algorithms is higher for conditions that are easily identified at birth. Jurisdictions with similar administrative data may benefit from using validated case definitions for CA surveillance as this facilitates cross-jurisdictional comparison. |
