Coding for Open Wounds. An open wound is an injury that causes a break in the skin or mucous membrane. In ICD-9-CM, open wounds are classified to categories 870 to 897.
T81. 31 - Disruption of external operation (surgical) wound, not elsewhere classified. ICD-10-CM.
Sternal dehiscence is the process of separation of the bony sternum, which often is accompanied by mediastinitis (infection of the deep soft tissues). In thoracic and trunk reconstruction, plastic surgeons play a crucial role in addressing wound healing issues and reconstructive techniques of the chest wall.
A sternotomy is a procedure that allows your doctor to reach your heart or nearby organs and blood vessels. First the doctor made a cut (incision) in the skin over your breastbone (sternum). Then the doctor cut through your sternum.
The types of open wounds classified in ICD-10-CM are laceration without foreign body, laceration with foreign body, puncture wound without foreign body, puncture wound with foreign body, open bite, and unspecified open wound. For instance, S81. 812A Laceration without foreign body, right lower leg, initial encounter.
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.
Encounter for change or removal of nonsurgical wound dressing. Z48. 00 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes. The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM Z48.
code 12020 (Treatment of superficial wound dehiscence; simple closure), which has a global period of 10 days, or. code 13160 (Secondary closure of surgical wound or dehiscence; extensive or complicated), which has a 90-day global period.
9XXA for Complication of surgical and medical care, unspecified, initial encounter is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Injury, poisoning and certain other consequences of external causes .
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.
Codes 97605 and 97606 are used for placement of a non-disposable wound vac device, while codes 97607 and 97608 are used if the wound vac is disposable.
The Current Procedural Terminology (CPT®) code 20103 as maintained by American Medical Association, is a medical procedural code under the range - Wound Exploration-Trauma (eg, Penetrating Gunshot, Stab Wound) Procedures on the Musculoskeletal System.
The words “cut” and “laceration” are often interchangeable. Both words indicate that your skin has been damaged by a sharp object, like a knife or shard of glass. In most cases, the wound will bleed. However, a cut is usually referred to as being a minor wound while a laceration is often more serious.

Main term entries in the ICD-10-CM index for open wounds can be either the type of wound (e.g., puncture), or the term wound, open. Using either term will allow the coder to find the correct type of wound and anatomical location by using the indented subterms. For example, if you look up puncture wound of the abdomen in the index using the main term Wound, open and then go to the subterms Abdomen, wall, puncture, an instructional note will guide you to “see” Puncture, abdomen, wall.#N#Example 1:
Type of wound — Open wounds include: Abrasions: Shallow, irregular wounds of the upper layers of skin. Caused by skin brushing with either a rough surface or a smooth surface at high speed. Usually present with minor to no bleeding, with some pain that subsides shortly after initial injury.
Lacerations are generally caused by trauma or contact with an object. Incisions: Typically the result of a sharp object such as a scalpel, knife, or scissors.
An initial encounter is a visit for the purpose of deciding what treatment is required to repair the wound. Subsequent equates to aftercare treatment. Sequela are complications or conditions that arise as a direct result of a wound. Type of wound — Open wounds include:
Penetrating wounds can be life threatening, causing serious injury, especially if involving vital organs, major blood vessels, or nerves. Gunshot wounds: These are considered to be penetrating wounds that are exclusively caused by bullets from firearms (guns, rifles, etc.).
Depending on the depth and site of the wound, an incision can be life threatening, especially if it involves vital organs, major blood vessels, or nerves. Punctures: Small, rounded wounds that result from needles, nails, teeth (bites), or other tapered objects.
The puncture wounds on the patient’s hands are not gaping and I think the risks outweigh the benefits of any type of suture closure. The wounds are quite small and I think suturing them would likely increase their risk of infection. IMPRESSION: Dog bite.
A chest injury is any form of physical injury to the chest including the ribs, heart and lungs. Chest injuries account for 25% of all deaths from traumatic injury. Typically chest injuries are caused by blunt mechanisms such as motor vehicle collisions or penetrating mechanisms such as stabbings.

This is the official approximate match mapping between ICD9 and ICD10, as provided by the General Equivalency mapping crosswalk. This means that while there is no exact mapping between this ICD10 code S21.109A and a single ICD9 code, 875.0 is an approximate match for comparison and conversion purposes.
