CCI component 2 codes - what was done
Procedure:	Control of Bleeding
CCI 2 code:	13
CCI Collection Mode:	CCI collect each

This procedure is a part of CCI Collection. This is one of the CCI component 2 codes - what was done.

Additional Info

• Use ONLY this code among the "what was done" part of CCI when constructing a procedure from components that is to control bleeding
  • Thus, includes doing so by ANY/ALL methods -- e.g. surgically, embolization, banding (e.g. of varices), etc.
  • So, use this code, not any of the other CCI components for "what was done" --
  • If not actively bleeding see Occlusion or Repair
• This identifies efforts to control bleeding, not remove or evacuate blood or a hematoma or clot.
  • Example: Continuous bladder irrigation for hematuria is not a method to stop bleeding but simply to get it out of there so it doesn't clot and cause obstruction; thus that would not be included here.
• To create a CCI code to indicate procedure to control bleeding from components -- combine this code PLUS the "body part" code -- for control of bleeding esophageal varices combine it with (T) Esophagus

Includes

• Blakemore tube to control esophageal variceal bleed
• banding
• embolization
• clipping- Padlock Clip system, for treating bleeding or perforations related to duodenal ulcers
