Additional Info

  • The current ICD-10 codings of sepsis and its subsets is based on the SEPSIS-2 criteria from 2001. In 2017 the SEPSIS-2 criteria came out but ICD-10 doesn't reflect that yet.
  • If the sepsis is NOT accompanied by organ failure, or IS accompanied by shock, then this is NOT the correct code.
  • SIRS is defined as 2 or more of the following things:
    • Fever of more than 38°C (100.4°F) or less than 36°C (96.8°F)
    • Heart rate of more than 90 beats per minute
    • Respiratory rate of more than 20 breaths per minute or arterial carbon dioxide tension (PaCO 2) of less than 32 mm Hg
    • Abnormal white blood cell count (>12,000/µL or <4,000/µL or >10% immature [band] forms)
