why not, it's the same kind of usage I used at slide #39.
create table icd10 (q tsquery, code text);
insert into icd10 values(to_tsquery('diabetes & mellitus'), '[E11]');
select * from icd10 where to_tsvector('patient was suspected to suffer
from diabetes mellitus') @@ q;
q | code
-----------------------+-------
'diabet' & 'mellitus' | [E11]
