== Additional Info ==
== Additional Info ==
*This code does double duty as: (a) an infectious disease NOS, or (b) as pathogen NOS as part of the buglist.
*This is a wastebasket code to be used for a specific infectious disease for which there is no specific ICD10 code.
'''Includes'''
*Disseminated infections, but combine the source with it, if known.
*Mycotic aneurysm (link this code with applicable [[:Category:Aneurysm|Aneurysm]] code)


{{discussion}} is it cat "Infection with implied pathogen" or "Infection requiring pathogen"? Fix above, and also the required bug and number
=== Septic embolism ===
*There are 2 existing codes for specific types of septic emboli:
**[[Pulmonary embolism (thromboembolism), septic]]
**[[Pulmonary embolism, septic obstetrical thromboembolism]]
*But those 2 codes don't cover septic emboli that are not PEs, i.e. elsewhere -- to code those use [[Combined ICD10 codes]] with this code plus the appropriate code from [[:Category:Venous thromboembolism]]/[[:Category:Arterial thromboembolism]].
 
=== Latent TB ===
* An individual with latent TB has a (+) skin or immunologic test for TB but no active organ involvement. It was agreed to code it as [[Infectious disease NOS]] with [[Mycobacterium tuberculosis (M. TB)]]
