Construct a concept map that shows how a population of bacteria can develop resistance to antibiotics.
Vsevolod [243]

The attached picture shows how bacteria gain antibiotic resistance. Firstly, a few individuals attain a beneficial mutation in their genetic material that accords them the capability to survive in an antibiotic. The individuals are hence able to survive and reproduce more than those individuals without the mutation. There is, therefore, a genetic shift in the population in favor of the resistant genotype. After generations, the whole population becomes antibiotic resistant.

SSSSS [86.1K]

The correct answer is 97761 * 2, L6050, Z44.8, Z89.11.  

In the CPT index when one looks for Prosthetics/Training, then one is directed towards 97761. The code is repeated for every 15 minutes. As 30 minutes are spent in training, so 2 units are reported. In the HCPCS level II codebook when one looks for Disarticulation/Wrist prosthesis, one is directed towards codes L6050, L6055. On the basis of description, the prosthesis is reported with code L6050.  

In the alphabetic index of ICD-10-CM, when one looks for fitting/device NOS/prosthetic (external), then one is directed towards the code Z44.8. In the index when one looks for the absence of organ or part (complete or partial)/wrist and hand (acquired) then one is referred towards the code Z89.11.
