Your doctor will diagnose obstructive uropathy with an ultrasound. Scans of your pelvic region and your kidneys will show if urine is backing up into your kidneys. Imaging tools can also point out blockages to your doctor. Removing the obstruction from blocked ureters is the main goal of treatment.
Tests and procedures used to diagnose urinary tract infections include: Analyzing a urine sample. Your doctor may ask for a urine sample for lab analysis to look for white blood cells, red blood cells or bacteria.
Treatment of urinary obstruction depends on the cause. Passing a catheter in the bladder may be all that is needed to relieve the obstruction (a catheter is a soft tube that is inserted into the urethra). Medication can sometimes help if the obstruction is due to an infection, or sometimes in the case of an enlarged prostate.

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.
