What is an ESBL infection? ESBL stands for extended spectrum beta-lactamase. It's an enzyme found in some strains of bacteria. ESBL-producing bacteria can't be killed by many of the antibiotics that doctors use to treat infections, like penicillins and some cephalosporins. This makes it harder to treat.
Objective. Multidrug resistance (MDR) and extended spectrum beta lactamase (ESBL) producer Gram negative bacteria are considered as a major health problem, globally. ESBL enzyme hydrolyses the beta lactam ring of third generation cephalosporins, which alters the structure of the antibiotic.Nov 7, 2017

Some germs, such as Escherichia coli (E. coli) and Klebsiella, produce an enzyme called extended spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL). This enzyme makes the germ harder to treat with antibiotics. ESBL can cause a variety of illnesses, including: Urinary tract infections (UTIs)Jan 5, 2021
Enteroinvasive Escherichia coli infection A04. 2 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes.

In healthy people, this often means urinary tract infections. ESBL germs have also been identified in people returning to the United States after traveling abroad, especially to places where these germs are more commonly found. Top of Page.
Use soap and water or alcohol-based hand sanitizer. ESBL-producing germs live in the gastrointestinal (GI) tract, so it is especially important to clean your hands after using the bathroom and before eating or preparing food.
Infections caused by ESBL-producing germs are treated with antibiotics, but because they are resistant to many commonly prescribed antibiotics, treatment options might be limited. People with these infections sometimes need to be hospitalized for treatment with IV antibiotics. Carbapenem antibiotics, which are typically reserved for highly ...
These infections most commonly occur in people with exposure to healthcare, including those in hospitals and nursing homes. However, unlike many other resistant germs, ESBL-producing Enterobacterales can also cause infections in otherwise healthy people who have not been recently been in healthcare settings. In healthy people, this often means ...
Carbapenems are one of the few remaining antibiotics that can treat ESBL-producing germs, but resistance enzymes that destroy these antibiotics are on the rise, too. The more we rely on this important class of antibiotics, the greater the risk of spreading resistance to them.
Instead of taking oral antibiotics at home, patients with these infections might require hospitalization and intravenous (IV) carbapenem antibiotics. Carbapenems are one of the few remaining antibiotics that can treat ESBL-producing germs, but resistance enzymes that destroy these antibiotics are on the rise, too.
Z16.12 is a valid billable ICD-10 diagnosis code for Extended spectrum beta lactamase (ESBL) resistance . It is found in the 2021 version of the ICD-10 Clinical Modification (CM) and can be used in all HIPAA-covered transactions from Oct 01, 2020 - Sep 30, 2021 .
When an Excludes2 note appears under a code it is acceptable to use both the code and the excluded code together. A “code also” note instructs that two codes may be required to fully describe a condition, but this note does not provide sequencing direction. The sequencing depends on the circumstances of the encounter.
