Death certificate
I'm hoping someone can find an explanation for this "I (a)" bit. It comes up in a UK death certificate, under "Cause of death", as follows:
"8. Cause of death
I (a) Stroke
Certified by [Doctor's name] MD"
Then follows point 9.
Although the scan isn't 100%, I'm pretty sure the I is an I not a 1.

Roman numeral?
There may have been more than one possible primary cause of death, which could have been listed as I (a), I (b) etc.

| Thanks Ayman - but I posted this as an English monolingual question, and I'm mainly puzzled by the I (a) bit. Thanks again. |
