Mild alcohol intoxication – http://id.who.int/icd/entity/1443836552

Mild alcohol intoxication is a clinically significant transient condition that develops during or shortly after the administration of alcohol that is characterised by detectable impairment in areas of functioning that require intact motor coordination, attention, or judgement, but with little or no disturbance in level of consciousness. The severity of alcohol intoxication should be recorded based on clinical assessment rather than based on measures of the concentration of alcohol in the blood or breath.
