In most cases, second-degree burns are caused by:Very hot water.Flames.Skin that briefly comes in contact with a hot object.Sunburn.Chemicals.Electricity.
Superficial dermal burns are initially the most painful. Even the slightest change in the air currents moving past the exposed superficial dermis causes a patient to experience excruciating pain. Without the protective covering of the epidermis, nerve endings are sensitized and exposed to stimulation.
CPT Code 16020 Dressings and/or debridement of partial-thickness burns, initial or subsequent; small (less than 5% total body surface area).
Note: CPT® code 16000 is for initial treatment of first-degree burns only, whereas codes 16020, 16025, and 16030 are for initial and subsequent visits for treatment of second- and third-degree burns.
Superficial partial-thickness burns characteristically form blisters within 24 hours between the epidermis and dermis. They are painful, red, and weeping and blanch with pressure (picture 2). These burns generally heal in 7 to 21 days, and, though scarring is unusual, pigment changes can occur.
2nd-degree burn. This type of burn affects both the epidermis and the second layer of skin (dermis). It may cause swelling and red, white or splotchy skin. Blisters may develop, and pain can be severe. Deep second-degree burns can cause scarring.
First-degree (superficial) burns. First-degree burns affect only the outer layer of skin, the epidermis. The burn site is red, painful, dry, and has no blisters. Mild sunburn is an example. Long-term tissue damage is rare and often consists of an increase or decrease in the skin color.
ICD-10-CM Code for Pain in hand and fingers M79. 64.
Second-degree burns indicate blistering with damage extending beyond the epidermis partially into the layer beneath it (dermis) Third-degree burns indicate full-thickness tissue loss with damage or complete destruction of both layers of skin (including hair follicles, oil glands, & sweat glands)
ICD-10 makes a distinction between burns and corrosions: Burn codes apply to thermal burns (except sunburns) that come from a heat source, such as fire, hot appliance, electricity, and radiation. Corrosions are burns due to chemicals.
Burn Types. A burn is tissue damage with partial or complete destruction of the skin caused by heat, chemicals, electricity, sunlight, or nuclear radiation. Proper selection of burn codes requires consideration of the location of the burn, severity, extent, and external cause in addition to laterality and encounter.
According to the American Burn Association, an estimated 486,000 hospital admissions and visits to hospital emergency departments occur annually for burn evaluation and treatment in the United States.
The descriptions of codes in the T20-T28 range are first defined by an anatomical location of the body affected by burn or corrosion.
