Summary

How to design and record the coding system of human diseases in order to facilitate statistical researches is a crucial task in the field of medical diagnoses and the research of human diseases,. A unified coding system can serve as the common language for doctors to discuss diseases, and also a basis for determining the amounts for health insurance reimbursement. The management of building diseases requires comprehensive inspection tests and integrated records of all aspects in order to create a complete, effective database management mechanism to allow for effective usage and application. In current building disease research the primary focus is often on one single building damage problem and seldom on the research of all aspects of building diseases. The main reason for this oversight is the lack of existing database resources for building diseases, and this results in greater difficulty for researchers to acquire complete data and information on building diseases. The important key element of creating a building disease database is the categorization and coding of building diseases. The research of building medicine disease coding began with building medicine's analogous module of building medical records (BMRs.) The most commonly used disease coding system in the medical field, The International Classification of Diseases, Ninth Revision, Clinical Modification (ICD-9-CM), serves as an analogous basis to develop classification and coding references suitable for building diseases. This study takes into consideration the description, case, method of treatment and other characteristics to research on an analogous basis and create the operational standard for building disease classification coding - International Classification of Building Diseases (ICBD). A database is built by following the ICBD standard. Next, the ICBD should be recorded in digital BMRs to facilitate future statistical applications of disease database research. The establishment of the ICBD coding module and the database system, together with the already presented Building Medical Records, can provide building management personnel with a basic platform for online analysis or knowledge acquisition from which building disease records, management of building disease classification, and continued future expansion can be conducted. This database can also be used as a basic reference for future building health diagnoses, maintenance and upkeep analysis, building life cycle extension plans and budget allotment as well as many other management tasks. This study first uses the qualities of expandability, storage possibilities, common qualities, and feasibility in digital databases as target requirements to create a common ICBD coding system to be used in building disease database designs. The database uses the tiers of building disease historical data as the basis for the building maintenance management platform.
