Under general anesthesia, a provider excises one chalazion from each upper eyelid. What cptâ® and icd-10-cm codes are reported?

1 answer:

6 0

Although chalazion surgery is not regarded as serious surgery, anaesthetic is used throughout the procedure. You might have a local anaesthetic that only affects the region around your eyes or a general anaesthetic that puts you to sleep for the surgery, depending on your health requirements, age, and medical history.

Whether a single or several chalazia are removed under these circumstances, the codeCPT 67808 is utilised for excisions requiring general anaesthesia and/or hospitalisation. Similarly for icd-10-cm codes are as follows-

For chalazion right upper eyelid ICD-10-CM Code H00.11

For chalazion, left upper eyelid, ICD-10-CM code H00.14

Aftercare is involved post surgery, antibiotics are prescribed. Steroid ointment is given in some cases

Blood coagulation is initiated by either the intrinsic or extrinsic pathway. The final step inboth pathways would be:

Murrr4er [49]

Answer:The final step in both pathways would be the activation of factor X, leading to conversion of prothrombin II to thrombin IIa. Option C.

Explanation: blood coagulation is the processes that leads to blood clot formation. The blood clot formed is made up of fibrin and platelets, which forms hemostatic plug over a wound site. The blood coagulation is made up of two partways that led to the formation of clot. The intrinsic pathway also called contact activation pathway and the extrinsic pathway which is also known as the tissue factor pathway. The both pathways are connected by a common pathway whereby factor X is activated leading to leading to conversion of prothrombin II to thrombin IIa. Thrombin then converts fibrinogen to fibrin( blood clot). I hope this helps. Thanks.
