Significant complications tracked on medicine units.--[[User:TOstryzniuk|TOstryzniuk]] 20:35, 24 November 2009 (CST)
  Legacy - this list was set up when CCMDB had LIMITED slot for complication codes.  6 expanded to 9. We no longer have limited fields, therefore this list is no longer necessary.
*NOTE:Dr.Dan Roberts had previously provided this list of “specific complications” that he wanted to track on medicine wards. --[[User:TOstryzniuk|TOstryzniuk]] 20:48, 23 November 2009 (CST)

Content removed so it doesn't show in searches; see article history for details.


1.''' Central Line complication''' (requires transfusion or surgery)
**86000 - '''[[Central Line Related Blood stream Infection (CLR-BSI)]]'''  (see [[UPL]] for subcode 1-95 - not all subcodes apply and we have no rules to exclude any)
**98003  Pneumothorax – 2nd to central line insertion
**98102  Hemothorax – 2nd to central line insertion
**98201  Significant bleed - 2nd to central line - Femoral Artery/vein
**98203  Significant bleed - 2nd to central line - Pulmonary Artery
**98203  Significant bleed - 2nd to central line - subclavian arter/vein
**98205  Significant bleed - tamponade 2nd to central line
**98300  Stroke due to central line
**98500  Ischemia 2nd to central line (swan ganz, IJ, Subclavian)
**98900  Loss or broken guidewire with central line insertion
**99000  Arterial insertion of venous central line (malpositioning of PA or IJ into carotid artery or LV).


2. '''DVT''' '''[[Art/Ven Embolus/Thrombus]]''' -do you just want just lower extremity DVT or any other type?
[[Category:Legacy Data]]
**13200  (code by itself is mixed bag of Arterial or venous embolus or Thrombus)
**13201  Femoral (lower extremity)
**13202  Popiteal (lower extremity)
**13203  Subclavian (upper extremity/thorax-armpit, collar bone area)
**13204  Superior mesenteric (abdomin)
**13205  Post Operative (anywhere in body)
**13206  Internal Jugular (upper extremity/thorax –neck area)
**13208  Axillary (upper extremity/thorax-armpit - collar bone area)
**13209  Innominate (upper extremity/thorax -)
***13606 aortic – '''Excluded''' because this is generally a paradoxical embolization of DVT thrombus into the aorta. Our code is a mixed bag of arterial venous embolus or thrombus so don’t include for DVT.
 
3. '''[[Ulcers - Decubitus only]]'''
**94500  Decubitus ulcer only (used without subcode if stage unknown)
**94501  stage 1 surface reddening

**94504  full layer to bone
 
4. '''[[HAP-Hospital Acquired Pneumonia]]'''
**3800  ([[UPL]] subcodes 1-95 (exclude subcode 59, see below))
**3600  ([[UPL]] subcodes 1-95 (Pneumonia if not sure if hosp or community acquired, exclude subcode 59)) 
 
5. '''Aspiration Pneumonia''' '''[[Aspiration (early presentation, documented aspiration)]]'''
**3859  hospital acquired aspiration pneumonia
**  [[Pneumonia Etiology not clear | 3659]]  Pneumonia Etiology not clear (not sure where acquired)  (see discussion [[Pneumonia Etiology not clear | here]])
 
6.'''[[Pulmonary Embolus]]'''
**1300 Pulmonary Embolus (used without subcode if reason is unknown)

 Legacy - this list was set up when CCMDB had LIMITED slot for complication codes.  6 expanded to 9.  We no longer have limited fields, therefore this list is no longer necessary.
