What is the difference between ICD-9 and ICD-10?
In an amazing political move, a sentence recently was inserted into a must-pass bill in Congress – the SGR patch – that delayed ICD-10 for at least another year. It had nothing to do with the SGR. It was little-noticed and seldom mentioned. Too late, the ICD-10 proponents mobilized. The bill passed. And ICD-10 was again delayed!

Definition. Urinary retention is defined as the inability to completely or partially empty the bladder. Suffering from urinary retention means you may be unable to start urination, or if you are able to start, you can't fully empty your bladder.
ICD-10 | Retention of urine, unspecified (R33. 9)
Voiding dysfunction is a broad term, used to describe conditions where there is inconsistent coordination within the urinary tract between the bladder muscle and the urethra. This results in incomplete relaxation or overactivity of the pelvic floor muscles during voiding (urination).
The definition of oliguria is low urine output, while anuria means no urine output. Polyuria means excessive urine production. Paying attention to urine has been a medical tool for thousands of years.
Urinary retention can be attributed to two causes — either obstruction or non-obstruction. If there is an obstruction (for example, bladder or kidney stones), a blockage occurs and urine cannot flow unimpeded through your urinary track. This is the basis for acute urinary retention and is potentially life threatening.
Chronic urinary retention develops over time. People with chronic urinary retention can urinate but cannot completely empty the urine from their bladders. Many people with chronic urinary retention do not know they have the condition because they may not experience any symptoms.
Here are some of the dangers of holding your pee: If you don't empty your bladder often enough, or go a couple of days without emptying it all the way, it can result in a urinary tract infection (UTI). If you hold your pee as a matter of habit, your bladder can start to atrophy. Over time, you may develop incontinence.
Introduction. Post-void residual volume (PVR) is the amount of urine retained in the bladder after a voluntary void and functions as a diagnostic tool.
