| *I have a dumb question in our old books code 359 kidney infections/abcesses (ei.pyelonephritis/urosepsis) and code 360 was just for cystitis (bladder infection) in our new book code 51 says only Cystitis (bladder infection) does not say Urosepsis
| |
| *definition: Can be used interchangeably to describe either
| |
| *(A)urinary tract infection(UTI) or
| |
| *(B) the rare occurrence of bacterial seeding into the blood stream due to an UTI causing a generalised infection.
| |
| *So my question is we now include urosepsis to code 51? Is this a correct understanding of the use of code 51? (SKiesman, Jan 8 2009 10:54am)
| |
| | |
| *Question is never dumb.
| |
| *First thing, please '''get rid of you old code book,''' you should have an updated one. These code were migrated to the infection section June 26.06. I am not sure why you are still using old code book?
| |
| *[[Urosepsis]] is a term used imprecisely to denote infection ranging from urinary tract infection to generalized sepsis which may result from such infection.
| |
| * for our purpose the definition of [[Urosepsis]] is: septicemia/bacteremia resulting from urinary tract infection.
| |
| | |
| *If localized bladder infection (cystitis) only code 51 - subcode with applicable pathogen
| |
| | |
| *if the DX is [[Urosepsis]] - which mean it is know or suspected that the infection has gone into bloodstream, then '''also code with''' [[Septicemia/Bacteremia/Fungemia]] (46) with subcode that is applicable. [[User:TOstryzniuk|TOstryzniuk]] 14:11, 8 January 2009 (CST)
| |
| | |
| *Yes it seems that Doc's use the DX of urosepsis when referring the localized bladder infection.

| ** I should have clarified better of course I am not using the old book what I wanted to say is the old book had urosepsis the new book omitted urosepsis Our confusion here at the Vic started when you used the code 51 and called it urosepsis and in the new code book code51 is only cystitis.
