Gangrene, NOS | can we use this code for necrosis or necrotic wounds? Lisa Kaita 11:57, 2024 April 17 (CDT) | 2024-04-17 5:03:39 PM |
Hemothorax or hemopneumothorax, nontraumatic | Just wondering whether this code could be combined with iatrogenic causes similar to the guideline for:
Guideline for Iatrogenic Pneumothorax According to our general rule of not coding iatrogenic events as traumas, code an iatrogenic pneumothorax as
Plus the most appropriate of the following; Pneumothorax, tension, nontraumatic Pneumothorax, nontension, nontraumatic Pneumothorax, nontraumatic, NOS Thanks, Pamela Piche 08:55, 2024 March 19 (CDT)

Iatrogenic, mechanical complication/dysfunction, internal prosthetic device or implant or graft NOS | At our last TASK meeting the decision was made to exclude spontaneous rupture of an ETT cuff or cuff leak, but we are wondering if this is correct based on what is listed in the includes section of this page and what is in Iatrogenic, mechanical complication/dysfunction, internal orthopedic prosthetic device or implant or graft or bone device and Iatrogenic, mechanical complication/dysfunction, cardiac or vascular prosthetic device or implant or graft, NOS Lisa Kaita 12:37, 2024 March 20 (CDT) | 2024-03-20 5:37:32 PM |
Myocardial infarction, acute (AMI), NOS | ICD 10 has this code for STEMI:
2024 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code I21.3
ICD 10 has this code for NSTEMI: 2024 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code I21.4
Would it be less labor intensive for collectors to be able to use these codes instead of MI codes dependent upon development (or not) of Q waves as this is problematic to determine. Thank you, Pamela Piche 07:49, 2024 April 5 (CDT)

Sepsis (SIRS due to infection, without acute organ failure) | How hard of a rule is lactate >2? If they meet the criteria for septic shock with the exception of a high enough lactate, can we code septic shock Lisa Kaita 12:17, 2024 April 17 (CDT) | 2019-03-09 9:24:42 PM |
Sepsis (SIRS due to infection, without acute organ failure) | When the progression is very fast eg. admitted at 0100 with severe sepsis, lactate 1.7, then at 0220 lactate is now 2.7 do we use the admit severe sepsis and code the septic shock as acquired? Lisa Kaita 12:17, 2024 April 17 (CDT) | 2019-03-09 9:24:42 PM |
Severe sepsis | How hard of a rule is lactate >2? If they meet the criteria for septic shock with the exception of a high enough lactate, can we code septic shock Lisa Kaita 12:17, 2024 April 17 (CDT) | 2019-10-31 3:04:29 PM |
Severe sepsis | How hard of a rule is lactate >2? If they meet the criteria for septic shock with the exception of a high enough lactate, can we code septic shock Lisa Kaita 12:17, 2024 April 17 (CDT) | 2022-02-17 10:56:05 PM |
Severe sepsis | When the progression is very fast eg. admitted at 0100 with severe sepsis, lactate 1.7, then at 0220 lactate is now 2.7 do we use the admit severe sepsis and code the septic shock as acquired? Lisa Kaita 12:17, 2024 April 17 (CDT) | 2019-10-31 3:04:29 PM |
Severe sepsis | When the progression is very fast eg. admitted at 0100 with severe sepsis, lactate 1.7, then at 0220 lactate is now 2.7 do we use the admit severe sepsis and code the septic shock as acquired? Lisa Kaita 12:17, 2024 April 17 (CDT) | 2022-02-17 10:56:05 PM |
Shock, septic | How hard of a rule is lactate >2? If they meet the criteria for septic shock with the exception of a high enough lactate, can we code septic shock Lisa Kaita 12:17, 2024 April 17 (CDT) | 2019-01-10 7:32:04 PM |
Shock, septic | When the progression is very fast eg. admitted at 0100 with severe sepsis, lactate 1.7, then at 0220 lactate is now 2.7 do we use the admit severe sepsis and code the septic shock as acquired? Lisa Kaita 12:17, 2024 April 17 (CDT) | 2019-01-10 7:32:04 PM |
STB ICUs VAP Rate, CLIBSI Rate Summary |
| 2024-04-08 4:27:53 PM |
Stroke, NOS | we need clarification on when to use this code, eg. if there is a history where it says a history of stroke, or if on CT they comment remote lacunar infarcts? Lisa Kaita 12:01, 2024 April 17 (CDT) | 2024-04-17 5:01:53 PM |
Template:ICD10 Guideline Sepsis | How hard of a rule is lactate >2? If they meet the criteria for septic shock with the exception of a high enough lactate, can we code septic shock Lisa Kaita 12:17, 2024 April 17 (CDT) | 2024-04-17 5:17:33 PM |

ICU Database Task Group Meeting – Jan 11, 2023
Copied here as starting point for 2023, please edit/overwrite
- Present: Allan, Gail, Julie, Michelle, Mindy, Stephanie, Tina, Val, Pagasa, Mailah
- Minutes prepared by: AG
- Action items in BOLD
1. Transition to Database Server#Shared Health - Nothing new about either of the possible alternative options for hosting the database.
2. Controlling Dx Type for ICD10 codes - Regarding the task to improve data collector diagnosis assignment into the 3 "bins" of admission diagnosis, acquired diagnosis and comorbid diagnosis.
- Lisa indicated that for a first pass on this, she will distribute all the codes among all the collectors.
3. New item: Clarification of Pulmonary emphysema or bullous disease without COPD. Allan modified this Wiki entry to make it clearer.
4. New item: Regarding Sudden cardiac death (and died)
- After discussion we recognized that we have no need to specifically code patients' cause of death. We know it occurred by virtue of the Dispo field. Thus we agreed to remove this item from the list of ICD-10 codes, and to have Julie go into all records where it has been recorded and remove it. Allan modified the Wiki page also.
5. New question: It was noticed that an error occurs if a diagnosis of Influenza is recorded (which is an implied bug) and one attempts to combine it with a Nosocomial problem code. Tina will fix this.
6. Followup item from long ago: Seeking to get ABGs at Grace Hospital to be included in the Lab Info System (LIS).
- The last time we tried for this, in 2015, the resp therapy group at Grace was not interested in being required to manually logging this information into LIS, as IS done at HSC and St. B.
- We think they may be more open to it now -- so Allan will ask Heather Smith to raise it with them.
- If they indeed now are willing, then Allan will talk to Dr. Soroko about getting it implemented.
8. Next Task meeting January 11, 2023 at 11 am
2022...
