In the given scenario, icd-10-cm code reported is H02.423.

What is icd-10-cm code?

The ICD-10-CM is a morbidity classification developed by the United States that is used to classify diagnoses and reasons for visits in all health care settings.

Upper eyelid drooping is caused by a muscle disorder (myogenic). Look for Ptosis/eyelid in the ICD-10-CM Alphabetical Index, which states to see Blepharoptosis.

Look for Blepharoptosis and you'll be directed to H02.423, where the sixth character indicates laterality.

The sixth character of three stands for bilateral. There is only one code for both eyelids, not two separate codes.

This, this should be the icd-10-cm code.

Certain biological determinants of health may increase a population’s risk of environmentally caused health problems.
Solnce55 [7]

Answer: b. The elderly have a higher risk from toxic pesticides because they are less able to eliminate environmental toxins.

Explanation:

The older adults are expected to have health problems after a pesticide exposure. This is because of the fact that their metabolism is slow and the liver and kidneys are not able to remove the pesticides from the body. The liver and kidney may get injured during the exposure of the high doses of pesticides.

The longer a pesticide stay in the body of an old person this may result in more severe injury. As the body is slow in metabolism that is the conversion of the chemicals in the pesticides into less toxic metabolites. Thus the elderly people will not be able to eliminate the toxin from the body. The toxin will damage the vital organs and can lead to death.

The nurse suspects that an older adult client has a basal cell carcinoma. what finding did the nurse use to make this clinical d
777dan777 [17]

The nurse suspects that an older adult patient has features of basal cell carcinoma appearing in form of a small dome-shaped lesion with a pearly surface on the face.

What is Basal cell carcinoma?

The most prevalent type of skin cancer that is not melanoma is basal cell carcinoma (BCC).

  • It is a tumour that causes localized damage and has a variety of clinical and histological characteristics.
  • When viewed at low power magnification, a basaloid epithelial tumour emerging from the epidermis is the primary characteristic of basal cell carcinoma.
  • Normally, the palisade-like basaloid epithelium forms a fissure from the surrounding tumour stroma.

The nuclei grow congested in the centre, with scattered mitotic figures and visible necrotic bodies.

The presence of a mucinous stroma serves as a helpful distinguishing factor from other basaloid cutaneous tumours. Additionally, some tumours may exhibit foci of regression, which are regions of eosinophilic stroma devoid of basaloid nests.

Hence, the answer is a small dome-shaped lesion with a pearly surface on the face.
