This diagnosis is a part of ICD10 collection.
Additional Info
- This can apply to any of the mycobacteria -- TB or any of the atypical mycobacteria
- For this code, we only are seeking info about resistance of a mycobacterium to the "classic" anti-TB drugs:
- ciprofloxacin (Cipro)
- moxifloxacin (Avelox)
- levofloxacin (Levaquin)
- norfloxacin (Noroxin)
- ofloxacin (Floxin)
- Antimycobacterials (anti-TB drugs): Ethambutal (Ethambutol; Etibi), Isoniazid (INH), Rifabutin (mycobutin), Pyrazinamide (rifater), Rifampicin, Rifampin, Streptomycin,ethionamide, prothionamide, cycloserine, terizidone

Is that list above right? You had a manual list that included both, but I split them out to make them consistent with our pharmacy collection. |
This is not a standard ICD10 code but a ICD10 CA code. We added it for the following reason:
See Non-standard ICD10 Diagnoses for other codes like this. |
- examples of antimyocobacterials: isoniazid (INH), rifampin, ethambutol, pyrazinamide, and streptomycin
Alternate ICD10s to consider coding instead or in addition

Candidate Combined ICD10 codes
Infections
Infections in ICD10 have combined coding requirements for some of their pathogens. Any that have antibiotic resistances would store those as Combined ICD10 codes as well. If the infection is acquired in the hospital, see Nosocomial infection, NOS. See Lab and culture reports for confirmation and details about tests. See Infections in ICD10 for more general info.
Possible Simultaneous Presence of Multiple Different Types of Infection in a Single Site
- This refers to the situation where there may be simultaneous infection with multiple types of organisms -- e.g. 2 of bacteria, virus, fungus. While a classic example is a proven viral pneumonia (e.g. influenza) with a suspected/possible bacterial pneumonia superimposed, this kind of thing can occur in places other than the lungs, e.g. meningitis.
- The "signature" of this is typically the patient being treated simultaneously with antimicrobial agents for multiple types of organisms. BUT don't confuse this with there being infections at DIFFERENT body sites.
- As per our usual practice, we will consider a diagnosis as present if the clinical team thinks it's present and are treating it, with the exception that the team initially treated for the possible 2nd type of infection but then decided it likely was NOT present and stopped those agents.
- And remember that Infectious organism, unknown is used when the the specific organism is unknown (this could be not knowing the TYPE of organism, or suspecting the type but not having identified the specific organism of that type), while when the organism has been identified but it's not in our bug list, THEN use Bacteria, NOS, Virus, NOS or Fungus or yeast, NOS.
Attribution of infections
Antibiotic resistance
Antibiotic resistance is coded as Combined ICD10 codes of the condition/pathogen and the resistance. See Antibiotic Resistant Organism for more info.
