	* Positive (+ ve) blood cultures		* Positive (+ ve) blood cultures
	* Note: Septicemia/Bacteremia/Fungemia may be the working DX that the physician is treating but we cannot use the term septicemia unless there are positive blood cultures. If a source is not identified by cultures then use fever NYD. A septic patient just means that they likely have an infection somewhere, it does '''not'''mean they have septicemia. Again, the term "septicemia" is only used if the patient has a pathogen isolated in the blood!		* [[Unknown Pathogen]] only used for septicemia if the patient was transferred from a hospital where positive blood cultures were found but it is unclear which organism it was because it was not included in the documentation sent with the patient.

	* Unknown ~~pathogen (68)~~ only used for septicemia if the patient was transferred from a hospital where positive blood cultures were found but it is unclear which organism it was because it was not included in the documentation sent with the patient.
	** what if unknown for other reasons? how is this different from normal use of code 68? {{discussion}} Ttenbergen 17:28, 2014 October 2 (CDT)
