Additional Info
- This is intended for such openings that they come in with, i.e. had PRIOR to the start of this database record.
- Of course during the database record when the artificial opening was created, the sole correct code is a CCI code for that procedure, e.g: Chest tube, left in place
- This applies equally if the artificial opening is still patent, but there is no longer a device in it.
Includes:
- Ileal conduit (urostomy)
- PD catheter
- Nephrostomy tube
- Mitrofanoff procedure, also known as the Mitrofanoff appendicovesicostomy, is a surgical procedure in which the appendix is used to create a conduit, or channel, between the skin surface and the urinary bladder.
Excludes:
- The following artificial openings which have their own codes:
- having an indwelling Foley, as Foleys do not go through an "artificial opening". Indeed we are NOT currently capturing the presence of an indwelling Foley.
Past medical history codes
Past medical history codes should only be captured as Comorbid Diagnoses that represent previous procedures or medical situations. Their names usually follow the pattern "Past history of X" or "X, has one". See Category:Past medical history for a list.
