*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.

**~~It includes doing~~ so ~~by ANY/ALL methods -- e.g. surgically, embolization, banding (e.g. of varices), etc~~.

**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.

**So for example, create a code to indicate ~~generic~~ procedure to control bleeding ~~of esophageal varices~~ from components ~~by using~~ this PLUS the "body part" code '''[[(T) Esophagus]]'''

*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]]'''

*But this way of coding generic procedures to control bleeding does NOT indicate the method used to do so -- but it is often possible to create another CCI code (and combine it with the "Control of Bleeding" CCI code) to indicate the method also

**For example you can combine the CCI component for Therapeutic intervention on the blood vessel of interest with the "what was done" CCI component code of '''~~[[Occlusion]]~~''' to ~~indicate~~ banding~~, or~~ embolization~~, or surgical ligation, etc.~~

'''Includes'''

***But to do this you have to use the Therpeutic body part component code for the correct vasculature -~~- e.g.~~ for ~~esophageal~~ bleeding ~~you need~~ to code the veins draining the esophagus, which for the upper esophagus would be '''[[(T) Other Vessels of Head, Neck, Spine, NOS]]''' and for the lower esophagus would be '''[[(T) Thoracic Vessels, NOS]]'''

* Blakemore tube to control esophageal variceal bleed

* banding

* embolization

* clipping- Padlock Clip system, for treating bleeding or perforations related to duodenal ulcers

*For drainage or evacuation of blood, hematoma, or clot, use '''[[Drainage, Evacuation]]'''
