*
*[[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.
