Additional Info
- Use this code together with Chronic kidney disease (end-stage kidney disease, ESRD), Stage 5 in comorbs, to identify ESRD patients on chronic HD.
- If the ICU space is merely borrowing the ICU space to dialyze a patient, the patient should not be entered into our database. See Definition of an ICU admission#We don't include dialysis-only admissions
Should this ever be used as an Admit Diagnosis or Acquired Diagnosis or should the CCI codes be used in that setting? |
