Additional Info
Regarding the transplant, and ESRD
- Use this code to indicate that the person has had a kidney transplant PRIOR to the current database record, and that it is functioning.
- Need this because there's no other code for that -- i.e. they don't have either ESRD or acute renal failure.
- The transplant doesn't need to be functioning perfectly, so this code could co-exist with any of the acute renal failure or chronic renal failure codes (except for ESRD), see below.
- If you use this code, do NOT also code the ESRD that was the reason the person got the kidney transplant (i.e. Chronic kidney disease (end-stage kidney disease, ESRD), Stage 5), because having had ESRD is implicit in having had a kidney transplant.
How to use this in regard to patient moving through their hospital admission
- These notes are to resolve possible ambiguity for the situation where the patient received the transplant during the current hospitalization.
- Of course if the transplant occurred during a prior hospitalization, then this code can be used.
- But what about if the transplant was done during the current hospitalization, and they move from place to place within the hospital?
- If the person was admitted to the service directly after the transplant surgery, this code isn't used. For example, patient came in for elective transplant, had it, and came directly to SICU. In that case the SICU database record would have ESRD as an admitting diagnosis, and the transplant would be indicated by a CCI procedure code for it. So the SICU database record would not list Past history, transplanted kidney.
- Continuing that example, after SICU the person routinely went to the ward for further routine postop convalesence, then again ESRD is an admitting diagnosis, and the transplant would be indicated by a CCI procedure code for it. So again this ward database record would not list Past history, transplanted kidney.
- But, if the person was in SICU post-transplant, then went to a surgery ward where they developed new problem such as DKA, and was then transferred to your Medicine ward, in that case it would be appropriate to code Past history, transplanted kidney.
- So in brief, if a person had the kidney transplant during the current hospitalization, you'd only code Past history, transplanted kidney in the current database record if the reason for being admitted to your unit (ward or ICU) was a different problem, i.e. not the kidney transplant.
