Additional Info
This is a wastebasket code that includes:
- noninfectious peritonitis
- pneumoperitoneum
- Encapsulating peritoneal sclerosis (EPS) is a complication of peritoneal dialysis (PD)
- Peritoneal adhesions
The peritoneum is the serous membrane that forms the lining of the abdominal cavity. It covers most of the intra-abdominal organs, and is composed of a layer of mesothelium supported by a thin layer of connective tissue.
Alternate ICD10s to consider coding instead or in addition
- Peritoneal tissue/peritoneum, primary malignancy
- Intestinal adhesion(s) without obstruction / Intestinal adhesion(s) with obstruction
- Hemoperitoneum
- Peritonitis, infectious
- Peritoneal tissue/peritoneum, primary malignancy
- Peritoneum, metastatic malignancy to it (also code primary site)
Candidate Combined ICD10 codes
Infections
Infections in ICD10 have combined coding requirements for some of their pathogens. Any that have antibiotic resistances would store those as Combined ICD10 codes as well. If the infection is acquired in the hospital, see Nosocomial infection, NOS. See Lab and culture reports for confirmation and details about tests. See Infections in ICD10 for more general info.
