Full titles differ between systems:

IPC:

Measuring for diagnostic purposes; Identification of persons > Measuring characteristics of blood , e.g. gas concentration or pH-value > using optical sensors, e.g. spectral photometrical oximeters

CPC:

Measuring for diagnostic purposes (radiation diagnosis A61B6/00; diagnosis by ultrasonic, sonic or infrasonic waves A61B8/00); Identification of persons > Measuring characteristics of blood in vivo, e.g. gas concentration or pH-value (non-radiation detecting or locating of foreign bodies in blood A61B5/06) > using optical sensors, e.g. spectral photometrical oximeters

Of 4 combined children, 2 exist in both systems.

2 codes are CPC-only extensions.

IPC defines codes here since 2006.
