*Many acutely ill (especially critically ill) patients develop/acquire weakness while in hospital

*But, there are a variety of different causes of such weakness, including related to problems with nerves (neuropathies) and muscles (myopathies). While there are some ways to distinguish among these (e.g. use of EMG/NCV testing) this is almost never done because other than avoidance, there are no real treatments for any of these, i.e. they're all treated with rehabilitation.

*Here are the specific diagnostic codes we have to cover these various causes:

**Acquired neuropathies:

***[[Critical illness polyneuropathy (peripheral)]]

***[[Peripheral neuropathy or polyneuropathy, NOS]]

**Acquired myopathies:

***[[Muscle, wasting/atrophy NOS]] -- this INCLUDES weakness/wasting/atrophy due to deconditioning

***[[Myopathy, drug-induced]]

***[[Muscle disorder/myopathy (primary or secondary), NOS]]

***[[Muscle, disorder NOS]]

**When it's not even clear whether the problem is due to muscle or nerves

***[[Other and unspecified symptoms and signs involving the nervous and musculoskeletal systems]]
