This diagnosis is a part of ICD10 collection.
Additional Info
- Even though ICD-10 has not yet been modified to reflect it, WE are using the 2016 consensus definition of sepsis and septic shock (JAMA 315(8):801-10, 2016). These new definitions completely do away with talking about the Systemic Inflammatory Response Syndrome (SIRS).
- In the 2016 definitions we have just 2 subcategories:
- Sepsis is life-threatening organ dysfunction caused by a dysregulated host response to infection -- NOTE this was the 2001 definition of "severe sepsis"
- Septic shock is a subset of sepsis in which profound circulatory, cellular and metabolic abnormalities are associated with a greater risk of mortality than with sepsis alone
- Shock refers to: absolute or relative hypotension OR systemic evidence of hypoperfusion (e.g. organ failure(s), elevated serum lactate).
- Septic shock is shock due to proven or presumed infection.
Alternate ICD10s to consider coding instead or in addition
- Sepsis (SIRS due to infection, without acute organ failure)
- Severe sepsis (SIRS due to infection with acute organ failure)
- Shock, septic
- Puerperal (post-delivery) infections or sepsis
- Shock, NOS
- Shock, cardiogenic
- Shock, hypovolemic shock or hemorrhagic shock
- Toxic shock syndrome
- Bacteremia, NOS AND Fungemia, NOS -- these are laboratory manifestations, and while it's OK to code them if present, if you do so you should also code the clinical manifestation (such as sepsis, etc).
Candidate Combined ICD10 codes
- Also code the causative infection.
