Inflammation of the prostate or prostatitis ICD stands out on its list under several numbers. It all depends on the form of the pathology and the nature of its origin.
What is ICD
There is a regulatory document in the medical community that is reviewed periodically by the World Health Organization. It contains a list of all diseases and pathologies that occur in humans. It's called the International Classification of Diseases (ICD). Its main goal is to provide assistance in studying the patient's condition and to create optimal conditions for this by systematically registering the available data. Data is collected from around the world and coded under certain labels. It can be supplemented and downloaded at any time for further study.
Bitan! The ICD table contains classes and groups marked with codes. One title can contain several forms and manifestations of the same disease. The entry is organized in alphabetical order for ease of reference.
Prostate diseases according to ICD-10
The list of diseases includes:
- acute prostatitis ICD 10 41, 0;
- chronic prostatitis ICD 10 41. 1;
- prostate abscess - 41, 2;
- prostatocystitis - 41, 3;
- other inflammatory conditions of the prostate - 41, 8;
- unidentified inflammatory gland disease - 41, 9.
An ordinary person does not need to know the coding of an ICD. Only a doctor can decipher and encrypt the diagnosis.
Prostatitis according to ICD-10
Code of prostatitis according to ICD 10 - 41. If benign hyperplasia develops in the organ, then the disease is marked with another number. Adenoma of the prostate code according to ICD 10 in adults is registered with numbers from 40 to 51. These titles include various fibromas and fibroids.
It is one of the most common urological diseases that affect men of any age. In general, the inflammatory process in glandular tissue is most often observed in a chronic form with no visible acute signs at first.
Experts classify the disease according to the nature of the course:
- acute, occurs in 50% of patients older than 30-35 years. Mainly associated with bacterial infections;
- chronic. It does not manifest for a long time and can develop in the background of an infectious process.
Due to the occurrence occurs:
- bacteria that occur inside the organ;
- it is not bacterial, in which pathological changes take place in a predominantly chronic form;
- viral, in which the whole genital area suffers.
By the nature of structural changes differ:
- fibrous shape. Glandular tissue growth occurs fairly rapidly and requires radical treatment. Clinically similar to prostate adenoma ICD of which 40, 0;
- calculation. It occurs when stones form in the tissues of the glandular organs. It is considered a precursor to cancer;
- stagnant form. It occurs with physical inactivity, prolonged abstinence from sex.
Causes and symptoms
Glandular pathology, both chronic and acute, is directly related to an irregular lifestyle, addiction to smoking and alcohol, and poor physical activity.
The main reasons why the disease develops even in young men are:
- infections transmitted during sexual contact: gonococci, Escherichia coli, chlamydia, etc. Frequent change of sexual partners increases the risk of developing the disease;
- congestion in the pelvic organs associated with impaired blood circulation;
- sedentary, sedentary lifestyle, physical inactivity;
- prolonged abstinence from sex, abuse of drugs that prolong sexual intercourse, deliberately delaying ejaculation during intimacy to prolong it;
- reduced immunity;
- psycho-emotional stress, severe stress;
- physical overload;
- hypothermia;
- endocrine system failure;
- unbalanced diet;
- dependencies.
The signs of the development of acute and chronic inflammation of the prostate are similar. The doctor will help identify the form of the disease after examination and diagnosis.
Features
The acute form is accompanied by severe clinical symptoms, and all tissues of the glandular organ are involved in the pathological process. Therefore, the disease is painful, severe: with an increase in body temperature, signs of general intoxication.
The patient complains of:
- heaviness and pain in the groin, pelvic region, lower back;
- a feeling of tightness in the rectum;
- increased urge to urinate, including at night;
- pain in the urethra after ejaculation and bladder emptying.
In the chronic form of the disease in the lower abdomen, some men experience pain of varying intensity, erection problems and potency. In 95% of cases, the disease is practically asymptomatic.
ICD codes for acute and chronic prostatitis
Chronic prostatitis ICD code 41. 1 with any harmful factors may worsen. Acute inflammation of ICD 41. 0 leads to edema of glandular tissue, which is fraught with acute urinary retention.
Such diseases, in the absence of appropriate treatment, lead to serious complications:
- bladder obstruction;
- development of male infertility;
- narrowing and scarring of the urethral canal;
- recurrent cystitis;
- pyelonephritis and other diseases affecting the kidneys;
- fertilization of glandular tissue, which requires urgent medical intervention;
- sepsis, which most commonly develops in immunocompromised individuals.
Diagnosis of pathology
In some cases, a single rectal examination and acquaintance with the patient's complaints is sufficient to make a diagnosis. However, inflammation is mainly diagnosed by laboratory and instrumental methods of examination.
The patient is referred to:
- blood and urine tests to determine infections and inflammation;
- prostate secretion analysis;
- ultrasound examination of the prostate, kidneys, bladder;
- urethrocytoscopy;
- MRI of the pelvic organs;
- PSA blood tests;
- biopsy;
- X-ray.
One of the most effective diagnostic methods is rectal digital examination of the prostate. Although in an acute form, the organ is very sensitive and the procedure can bring severe pain to the patient.
Treatment tactics
Chronic prostatitis, whose ICD code is listed in the International Registry of Diseases, requires complex treatment. The patient is advised to correct his diet, change his lifestyle, give up harmful addictions and start eating properly.
Also named:
- Medications. It helps relieve pain, relieves inflammation, activates the regeneration of damaged cells of the glandular organ. Suppositories are mostly used, as well as antibiotics.
- Prostate massage. It is considered the most effective method of removing stagnant processes in the gland. It is performed independently or with the help of experts. The procedure is considered inconvenient, but must be performed without error.
- Balneotherapy. With the help of mineral waters in sanatoriums, men manage to cope with the chronic form. It is also useful to drink healing water and bathe in it.
- Physiotherapy. Thermal physiotherapy gives excellent results. It helps in the rapid assimilation of drugs, alleviating general symptoms and increasing blood circulation in the problematic organ.
- Diet is an important step in therapy. The convalescent diet should contain vitamins, fiber, amino acids and mineral compounds. You will need to refrain from unhealthy foods (pickles, marinades, smoked meats, fried, fatty foods). The list of desirable products includes sour milk drinks, lean meat and fish, nuts, dried fruits, pumpkin seeds.
Surgery is rarely used for chronic inflammation, when other methods of treatment do not give a positive effect or purulent processes have begun.
Acute require the use of drugs, the use of microenemas, rectal suppositories, analgesics, painkillers. The patient is shown bed rest and refusal of intimacy. As soon as the acute period passes, prostate massage and physiotherapy are prescribed. It is very important to choose the necessary medications for this type of disease. This is possible only after an accurate diagnosis. What means will be prescribed and in what dose, says the specialist.
Prophylaxis
In order not to develop and worsen prostatitis, ICD code 10 in adults is listed under number 41, you must adhere to the following rules:
- lead an active and healthy lifestyle If it is not possible to visit the gym, it is necessary to do morning exercises, warm up during the working day and walk more. Some kind of gym will serve as a staircase by which a person climbs to his apartment every day;
- avoid hypothermia of the body: do not sit on a cold surface, dress according to the weather, etc. ;
- with constipation, include in the diet foods that relax the intestines, take mild laxatives. If the disorder becomes persistent, it is advisable to consult a specialist;
- regulates sex life. Prolonged sexual abstinence is the first step toward the development of glandular disease. If you do not have a permanent sexual partner, you can temporarily replace it with masturbation, but you should not interfere in this activity;
- avoid promiscuous sex without barrier contraception. Sexually transmitted diseases may not be noticed at first, but they severely damage glandular tissue causing an infectious form of prostatitis;
- at the slightest suspicion of a sexually transmitted infection you should consult a venereologist or urologist. Just go through the examination to find out what is the reason for the appearance of unpleasant symptoms;
- it is necessary to visit a urologist at least once a year to rule out the possibility of developing the disease.
Reviews
- "International classification is of little importance in the treatment of prostate inflammation of any etiology, as the ICD 10 code allows you to pinpoint the type of disease, formulate a diagnosis, and implement effective therapeutic measures. "
- "My father had a prostate adenoma. The doctor deciphered the ICD code when his diagnosis was made. The phase is quite neglected, the gland has almost tripled. The operation was scheduled and succeeded. Recovery was delayed because old age (over 60) and other chronic diseases were felt. There are now no complaints about the genitourinary system. "
- "Chr. Prostatitis ICD 41. 1 is on my card. I have suffered from this disease for a long time, but it rarely gets worse because I do everything to avoid the onset of acute symptoms. The doctor said that chronic diseases do not go away, they may not appear veryfor a long time, if you monitor your health properly. So I do sports - I run in the morning every day, I exercise, I don't drink alcohol, I don't smoke. "
