Proteus mirabilis is a common pathogen responsible for complicated urinary tract infections (UTIs) that sometimes causes bacteremia. Most cases of P. mirabilis bacteremia originate from a UTI; however, the risk factors for bacteremia and mortality rates from P. mirabilis UTI have not been determined.
Proteus mirabilis is a Gram-negative bacterium which is well-known for its ability to robustly swarm across surfaces in a striking bulls'-eye pattern. Clinically, this organism is most frequently a pathogen of the urinary tract, particularly in patients undergoing long-term catheterization.
The most common clinical manifestations of Proteus infection are urinary tract infections (UTIs). In general, UTIs are more common in individuals aged 20 to 50 years and most common in women of this age group. In otherwise healthy women, Proteus accounts for 1% to 2% of all UTIs (E.
0 Urinary tract infection, site not specified.
P. mirabilis infection can be diagnosed by the isolation of the organism from lesions or affected organs. The organism grows quickly with a characteristic swarming pattern that tends to overgrow most other bacteria on the plate.
How is Proteus mirabilis transmitted? The bacterium spreads mainly through contact with infected persons or contaminated objects and surfaces. The pathogens can also be ingested via the intestinal tract, for example, when it is present in contaminated food.
Proteus mirabilis (indole negative) is the most frequent Proteus species associated with urinary tract infections, but indole-positive Proteus species like Pr. vulgaris, which are more often resistant to ampicillin, may also cause urinary tract infections. These species are often associated with an alkaline urine.
Urinary tract infections (UTIs) and catheter-associated urinary tract infections (CAUTIs) involving Proteus mirabilis are typically complicated by the formation of bladder and kidney stones (urolithiasis) and permanent kidney damage 6), and may progress to bacteremia and potentially life-threatening sepsis 7).
For hospitalized patients, therapy consists of parenteral (or oral once the oral route is available) ceftriaxone, quinolone, gentamicin (plus ampicillin), or aztreonam until defervescence. Then, an oral quinolone, cephalosporin, or TMP/SMZ for 14 days may be added to complete treatment.

ICD-10 code Z87. 440 for Personal history of urinary (tract) infections is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Factors influencing health status and contact with health services .
The ICD-9 code 599.0 is an unspecified urinary tract infection (ICD-10 N39.
Bacterial vaginosis (BV), also known as vaginal bacteriosis or Gardnerella vaginitis, is a disease of the vagina caused by excessive growth of bacteria. Common symptoms include increased vaginal discharge that often smells like fish. The discharge is usually white or gray in color. Burning with urination may occur. Itching is uncommon.

This is the official exact match mapping between ICD9 and ICD10, as provided by the General Equivalency mapping crosswalk. This means that in all cases where the ICD9 code 041.6 was previously used, B96.4 is the appropriate modern ICD10 code.
Avoid coding unspecified UTI (N39.0) when specific site infection is mentioned. For example if both cystitis and UTI are mentioned it is not necessary to code UTI, instead code only cystitis. Urosepsis – This does not lead to any code in the alphabetic index.
Infection can happen in any part of the urinary tract – kidney, ureter, bladder or urethra. It is called as Cystitis, Urethritis and Pyelonephritis based on the site.
Urinary Tract infection (UTI) is a very common infectious disease occurs commonly in aged women. As age goes up there will be structural changes happening in kidney. Muscles in the bladder, urethra and ureter become weaken. Urinary retention gets increased in the bladder and this creates an environment for bacterial growth.
Urethritis. It is not necessary to mention the infectious agent when using ICD N39.0. If the infectious organism is mentioned, place the UTI code primary and organism secondary. Site specified infection should be coded to the particular site. For example, Infection to bladder to be coded as cystitis, infection to urethra to urethritis.
Uti (urinary tract infection) after procedure. Clinical Information. A bacterial infectious process affecting any part of the urinary tract, most commonly the bladder and the urethra. Symptoms include urinary urgency and frequency, burning sensation during urination, lower abdominal discomfort, and cloudy urine.
if you think you have a uti, it is important to see your doctor. Your doctor can tell if you have a uti by testing a sample of your urine. Treatment with medicines to kill the infection will make it better, often in one or two days.
Infections affecting stuctures participating in the secretion and elimination of urine: the kidneys, ureters, urinary bladder and urethra. Inflammatory responses of the epithelium of the urinary tract to microbial invasions. They are often bacterial infections with associated bacteriuria and pyuria.
In most cases the manifestation codes will have in the code title, "in diseases classified elsewhere.". Codes with this title are a component of the etiology/manifestation convention. The code title indicates that it is a manifestation code.
The guidelines indicate to code the underlying infection and if the organism is not document use the A41.9. In this case the under lying infection is the UTI, the organism is specified as the proteus, so there is no A41 code to add.
Sepsis was combined with the infection which is the UTI then the organism. In ICD-9 the code for sepsis due to infection was 995.91 which was never allowed first listed you had to code the infection first listed. The infection required an organism. That is why the guidelines stated that if an organism was not documented you used the septicemia code. Now for ICD-10 the codes are all very different and there is no code for sepsis due to infection. The guidelines indicate to code the underlying infection and if the organism is not document use the A41.9. In this case the under lying infection is the UTI, the organism is specified as the proteus, so there is no A41 code to add. Basic coding guidelines, when the documentation indicates that an underlying condition is responsible for the current condition, you code the underlying condition first. So code the UTI first. The UTI is the reason for the sepsis. The UTI was caused by the presence of the proteus organism.#N#Thank your supervisor for me.
If the type of infection or causal organism is not further specified, assign code A41.9, Sepsis, unspecified organism. The Proteus is the underlying infection.
If the patient is admitted with a localized infection and the patient does not develop sepsis or severe sepsis until after the admission, the localized infection is coded first, followed by the appropriate codes for sepsis or severe sepsis. Sepsis almost always begins with localized infection.
the coding clinic say that sepsis is a systemic infection, I am not referring to the code but the word systemic infection, coding clinics unless change or updated can be apply to both ICD 9 and 10. if the body reacts to an infection it means that you are infected. Tonsillitis, Bronchitis, Cystitis is a reaction to infection and consider as an infective disease. If the body has response systemically to an infective agent means that your body has a systemic infection and that is sepsis.
But the condition of sepsis should always be a secondary code, with the underlying infection first listed.
it is true that if the sepsis is due to non-infectious process and the reason for the admission is the non-infectious disease, the non-infectious such as trauma should become the principal diagnosis but if the sepsis is present on admission and meet the criteria for principal diagnosis the sepsis should be coded first.
