Dxs Collectors have asked about

  • Muscle Spasm Pamela Piche 08:44, 2018 June 18 (CDT)
  • hypoalbuminemia as a medical sign? It is fairly common with differing etiologies and sometimes treated with HSA replacement on medical units. Pamela Piche 10:25, 2018 May 22 (CDT)
  • mild cognitive impairment/decline be included to capture the intermediate stage between expected cognitive decline of normal aging and the more-serious decline of dementia? Pamela Piche 10:38, 2018 May 22 (CDT)
  • Septic Emboli: no specific code even though it is a very significant problems with endocarditis patients which can cause widespread clotting to any blood vessels which causes strokes, ischemia to many organs, etc. }}
  • Vasculitis: only options are Vasculitis limited to skin, NOS or Necrotizing vasculopathy/vasculitis, NOS}}
  • Intra-abdominal abscess: only options are intestine, anus, liver, peritonitis. No pancreatic abscess (do have pancreatitis and pseudocyst).
  • Medication/therapy non-compliance...I see the need for some reflection of this issue in a diagnostic code as I have frequent admission/ re-admissions for non-compliance with medications and/or therapies especially dialysis.--Llemoine 14:31, 2018 February 22 (CST)
  • Intrauterine death with chorioamnionitis. Could use Medical abortion, with complication and link it to bacterial infection NOS but this still does not deal with the intrauterine death as the problem. --LKolesar 10:11, 2018 April 20 (CDT)
  • meth/methamphetamine related dxs - I recently had this on one of my patients and I ended up using psychoactive substance NOS, chronic abuse/dependence/addiction. When I googled meth, it came up as a psychoactive drug.--LKolesar 11:52, 2018 February 13 (CST) }}
  • list of pages that need to be updated to mention meth/methamphetamine if we want it coded so. Ttenbergen 19:12, 2018 April 10 (CDT)
