*why are we collecting this type of intervention, for what purpose and when should this be coded as a significant acquired DX problem? It is showing up in STB_CICU as one of the most common acquire codes?  Is this not part of standard orders for care for post surgical pts?  Some are applying this code when physio comes to see pts, others are would use this code if it is a significant reason impacting LOS. We are not consistent to be looking in charts if physio came and did the work or not. --Julie and Trish.  * I agree, most surgical patients get physio consults.  Is it important to track who gets physio consults or is this also for nurses who provide physical rehab care or is this for occupational therapy?? We have chest physio on the tiss. To me this is not a diagnosis and am wondering why it is even in the ICD 10 codes.--[[User:LKolesar|LKolesar]] 07:44, 2019 May 7 (CDT)}}
