Definition/Introduction Dehiscence is a partial or total separation of previously approximated wound edges, due to a failure of proper wound healing. This scenario typically occurs 5 to 8 days following surgery when healing is still in the early stages.
Wound dehiscence is a surgery complication where the incision, a cut made during a surgical procedure, reopens. It is sometimes called wound breakdown, wound disruption, or wound separation. Partial dehiscence means that the edges of an incision have pulled apart in one or more small areas.
Punctures usually occur when a pointed object, such as a nail, pierces the skin. A gunshot wound is a puncture wound. Puncture wounds do not bleed much unless a blood vessel has been injured. However, an object that goes into the soft tissues beneath the skin can carry germs deep into the body.
Burn Wound Burn wounds can be classified based on the extent of the injury: First-degree burns affect only the epidermis and may cause redness and pain. Second-degree burns affect the epidermis and the dermis and may cause blisters. Third-degree burns reach into the fatty layer under the skin and may destroy nerves.
To code skin tears, begin in the alphabetic index under “INJURY, SUPERFICIAL,” and iden- tify the site of the injury. For example, if the patient has a skin tear because he or she has hit a leg on a wheelchair, look up Injury, Su- perficial, leg, which takes you to S80. 92-.
If “flank pain” is all you have to work with from the documentation, then R10. 9 is the code to use.
ICD-10 code: K57. 92 Diverticulitis of intestine, part unspecified, without perforation, abscess or bleeding.
R10. 2 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes.
Our coders are trying to decide which ICD-10-CM code (s) would be best to describe a gunshot wound, and the x-ray shows the bullet or bullet fragments. If we use "open wound" there is no option for "with foreign body". Some coders are thinking "puncture" or "laceration" because they both give the option of "with foreign body".
