WebMD defines sinusitis as “an inflammation, or swelling, of the tissue lining the sinuses. Normally, sinuses are filled with air, but when sinuses become blocked and filled with fluid, germs (bacteria, viruses, and fungi) can grow and cause an infection.”.
The National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases explains that paranasal sinuses are inflamed due to infection, which causes pain, drainage problems, and mucus build-up. Anyone who has experienced sinusitis can identify with the pain associated with the swelling.
According to Wikipedia, the paranasal sinuses “are a group of four paired air-filled spaces that surround the nasal cavity (maxillary sinuses), above the eyes (frontal sinuses), between the eyes (ethmoid sinuses), and behind the ethmoids (sphenoid sinuses). The sinuses are named for the facial bones in which they are located.”.
Recurrent acute – four or more acute episodes per year. According to the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases: Acute sinusitis (acute rhinosinusitis) causes the cavities around nasal passages (sinuses) to become inflamed and swollen. This interferes with drainage and causes mucus to build up.
Be sure your EHR can handle the detail required for the new sinusitis codes. Now that electronic health records (EHRs) are commonplace, it’s important to have a good understanding of what they will look like after ICD-10 has been implemented.
