The '''pathogens''' are a list of possible entries that make up the sub-code for diagnoses categorized as [[Infections]].
The [[ICD10 Diagnosis List]] contains specific codes for a number of different bacteria, viruses, fungi/yeast, mycobacteria and miscellaneous types of organisms. The entire list can be found in category and subcategories:
Pathogens are drawn from the '''[[S_Pathogens]]''' table on your PDA and in the [[CCMDB.mdb]].
{{subcat collapsible|supercategory = Pathogens}}


== Pathogen Table ==
Pathogens are coded as their own diagnosis codes:
*For the most up-to-date list of pathogens, see your PDA or Diagnosis code book.  This is the list as of May 08 and for orientation only.
{{ListICD10Category | categoryName = Pathogens}}


'''*will update this list with a table.''' (trish pending)
They are always entered as [[Combined ICD10 codes]] with an [[Infections in ICD10|infection]], but not all infections require pathogens. See [[Template:ICD10 Guideline Infection]], [[Infections in ICD10]] for more info.


===Bacteria===
Information about pathogens can be found in the patient's chart's [[Lab and culture reports]]; see that page for specific use instructions.


***g-ve = gram negative
== NOS pathogens ==
***g+ve = gram positive
*In each of those categories there are a number of specific bugs with their own codes (e.g. B95.3 is Strep pneumoniae)
***R = Rod
*But obviously we can't list every bug of any type, so for each of those categories there is also a "wastebasket" code for "NOS".  For example, if the bug is a specific bacteria but it's not in our list, then use [[Bacteria, NOS]], etc.  These are:
***C = coccus
**[[Bacteria, NOS]]
**[[Virus, NOS]]
**[[Fungus or yeast, NOS]]
**[[Nontuberculous mycobacteria]]
**[[Other type of infectious organism, NOS]]


*Acinetobacter g-ve R
=== NOS vs Unknown in the context of pathogens  ===
*Actinobacillus actinomycetemcomitans g-ve C-B
*We must distinguish '''NOS''' from '''unknown'''.
*Bacteriods fragilis g-ve R
**''NOS'' means that we do know the bug, but it's not in our list of specific pathogens
*Borrelia burgdorferi (Lyme disease)[[http://www.phac-aspc.gc.ca/id-mi/lyme-fs-eng.php]]
**''[[Infectious organism, unknown]]'' means we assume that there IS in fact a pathogen, but we have no idea about it's actual identity.


*Campylobacter g-ve R
=== Special Codes ===
*Citrobacter diversus g-ve R
* [[Not an Infection (ICD10 pathogen alternative)]] - included for [[cross check]]s when entering [[:Category:Potential infection]]s
*Citrobacter feundii g-ve R
* [[Infectious organism, unknown]] - eg for negative culture
*Clostridium botulinum g+ve R
*Clostridium difficle g+ve R
*Clostridium perfingens g+ve R
*Clostridium tentani g+ve R
*Corynebacterium diphtheriae  g+ve R
*E Coli g-ve R
*Enterobacter g-ve R
*Enterococcus faecalis g+ve C
*Haemophlilus  influenzae g-ve  R  C  B
*Haemophilus ducreyi g-ve R
*Haemophilus  parainfluenzae g-ve R
*Kebsiella pneumoniae g-ve R
*Legionella sp – legionella pneumophilia  g-ve R [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Legionella_pneumophila]]


*Listeria monocytogenes g+ve R
{{Data Integrity Check List}}
*Moraxella catarrhalis g-ve R
*Morganella morganii g+ve R
*Mycoplasma pneumoniae
*Neisseria gonorrhoeae g-ve C
*Proteus mirabilis g-ve R
*Pseudomonas aeruginosa g-ve R
*Salmonella g-ve R
*Serratia g-ve R
*Shigella g-ve R
*Staphylococcus aureus g+ve C
*Staphylococcus epidermidis g+ve C
*Streptococcus agalactiae  Group B g+ve C
*Streptococcus pneumoniae g+ve C
*Streptococcus pyogenes  Group A g+ve C
*Streptococcus viridans g+ve C
*Treponema pallidum  (Syphilis)[[http://www.cdc.gov/std/Syphilis/STDFact-Syphilis.htm]]

*'''no infections without pathogens'''
*'''no non-infections with pathogens'''

* Sputums for AFB (Acid Fast Bacilli).  As per Dr. Kumar: a negative AFB culture is considered a '''negative culture''' and should '''not''' to be coded as '''NO C&S culture sent'''.--[[User:FLindell|FLindell]] 15:33, 6 August 2008 (CDT)
** Fran, what's an AFB, and how does this entry relate to the pathogens? Can you give a little more detail? Thanks--[[User:Ttenbergen|Ttenbergen]] 16:09, 6 August 2008 (CDT)
***AFB is defined as Acid Fast Bacilli, which is a laboratory test used to identify certain types of bacteria such as mycobacteria that cause TB.  There was a question from data collectors about how to capture this sputum sample.  I guess the fact that the sputum sample is used to categorize the pathogen is why the discussion was placed here.--[[User:JHutton|JHutton]] 12:49, 11 August 2008 (CDT)
 
* How do we code scabies ?cellulitis other parasite? Please let me know Thanks[[User:SKiesman|SKiesman]] 13:30, 17 November 2008 (CST)
**Don't code.  We haven't been tracking incidence of  scabies nor are we going to start. [[User:TOstryzniuk|TOstryzniuk]] 21:21, 17 November 2008 (CST)
