*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.

*~~When using~~ this code ~~as pathogen NOS it represents that the pathogen HAS been isolated and identified, but that specific bug is not in our buglist.~~

'''Includes'''

**If instead of that, the bug is unknown (~~don't even know whether it's a bacteria, virus, etc~~)~~, then use code '''~~[[~~Infectious organism, unknown~~]]~~'''~~

*Disseminated infections, but combine the source with it, if known.

*Mycotic aneurysm (link this code with applicable [[:Category:Aneurysm|Aneurysm]] code)

* latent TB - An individual with latent TB has a (+) skin or immunologic test for TB but no active organ involvement combine with [[Mycobacterium Tuberculosis]]

=== 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]].

{{discussion}} is it category "Infection with implied pathogen" or "Infection requiring pathogen" or maybe "potential infection"? Fix above, and also the required bug and number... The problem is we are using this as both, a pathogen, and an infectious disease. We will use those categories as cross checks at some point, so need to get this right.
