Revision as of 21:28, 23 April 2014

24 - ESBL or MRO (extended spectrum beta-lactamase), MRO (meropenem-resistant organism other than Stenotrophomonas)

If both the pathogen name and the ESBL status are know, code the pathogen.

Question: From: Trish Ostryzniuk Subject: RE: code specific pathogen for an infection or if ESBL then code that?

Example: UTI due to E.Coli which is also ESBL on C&S. No past medical history of ESBL.

What would be the priority to code this type of case:

a. UTI due to E.Coli or

b. UTI due to ESBL

Currently we cannot code both UTI due to E.Coli PLUS UTI due to ESBL .

Answer: From: Anand Kumar

UTI with E coli
