Acute and chronic prostatitis according to ICD

Inflammation of the prostate or ICD prostatitis is featured on their 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 used in the medical community that is periodically reviewed by the World Health Organization. It includes a list of all diseases and conditions that occur in humans. It is called the International Classification of Diseases (ICD). Its main objective is to assist in the study of the patient's condition and create optimal conditions for this, systematically recording available data. Information is collected from around the world and encoded under certain designations. At any time, it can be added to and retrieved for further study.

Important! The ICD table contains classes and groups marked with codes. A title can contain multiple forms and manifestations of the same disease. The entry is arranged alphabetically for your convenience.

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;
  • unspecified inflammatory disease of the gland - 41, 9.

An average person doesn't need to know ICD encoding. Only a doctor can decipher and encrypt the diagnosis.

Prostatitis according to ICD-10

Prostatitis codes according to ICD 10-41. If benign hyperplasia develops in the organ, the disease is assigned a different number. Prostate adenoma code according to ICD 10 in adults is recorded with numbers from 40 to 51. These titles include various fibroids and fibroids.

It belongs to the most common urological diseases that affect men of any age. In general, the inflammatory process in glandular tissues is most often observed chronically, with no acute signs visible at first.

Experts classify the disease by the nature of the course:

  • acute, occurring in 50% of patients aged 30-35 years. Mainly associated with bacterial infections;
  • chronic. It doesn't manifest for a long time and can develop in the context of an infectious process.

Due to the occurrence, it happens:

  • bacteria that occur inside the organ;
  • non-bacterial, in which pathological changes occur predominantly chronically;
  • viral, in which the entire genital area suffers.

By the nature of structural changes, they are distinguished:

  • fibrous form. Glandular tissue growth occurs very quickly and needs radical treatment. Clinically similar to ICD prostate adenoma, of which 40, 0;
  • calculating. It occurs when calculi are formed in the tissues of the glandular organ. It is considered a harbinger of cancer;
  • stagnant form. Occurs with physical inactivity, prolonged abstinence from sex.

Causes and Symptoms

The pathology of the gland, both chronic and acute, is directly related to the conduct of an inappropriate lifestyle, addiction to tobacco and alcohol, and lack of physical activity.

The main reasons the disease develops even in young men are:

  • infections transmitted during sexual contact: gonococci, Escherichia coli, chlamydia, etc. Changing sexual partners frequently increases the risk of developing the disease;
  • congestion in the pelvic organs associated with impaired blood circulation;
  • sedentary lifestyle, sedentary lifestyle, physical inactivity;
  • prolonged abstinence from sex, abuse of drugs that prolong intercourse, deliberate delay in ejaculation during intimacy to prolong it;
  • decreased immunity;
  • psycho-emotional stress, severe stress;
  • excessive physical work;
  • hypothermia;
  • failure of the endocrine system;
  • unbalanced diet;
  • addictions.

The signs of the development of acute and chronic inflammation in the prostate are similar. Your doctor will help you recognize the form of the disease after examination and diagnosis.

Peculiarities

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, difficult: 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 emptying the bladder.

In the chronic form of the disease in the lower abdomen, some men experience pain of varying intensity, problems with erection 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 adverse factors may worsen. The acute inflammation of ICD 41. 0 leads to edema of the glandular tissues, which is fraught with acute urinary retention.

These diseases, in the absence of proper treatment, lead to serious complications:

  • bladder obstruction;
  • the development of male infertility;
  • narrowing and scarring of the urethral canal;
  • recurrent cystitis;
  • pyelonephritis and other diseases that affect the kidneys;
  • suppuration of gland tissues, requiring immediate medical intervention;
  • sepsis, which usually develops in people with weakened immunity.

pathology diagnosis

In some cases, a single rectal exam and familiarization with the patient's complaints are sufficient for the diagnosis. However, inflammation is mainly diagnosed through laboratory and instrumental tests.

The patient is referred to:

  • blood and urine tests to determine infections and inflammation;
  • analysis of prostatic secretions;
  • ultrasound examination of the prostate, kidneys, bladder;
  • urethrocytoscopy;
  • Magnetic resonance imaging of the pelvic organs;
  • PSA blood tests;
  • biopsy;
  • X-ray.

One of the most effective diagnostic methods is the digital rectal exam of the prostate. Although in the acute form, the organ is very sensitive, and the procedure can bring severe pain to the patient.

treatment tactics

Chronic prostatitis, whose ICD code appears in the international registry of diseases, requires complex treatment. The patient is advised to correct the diet, change the lifestyle, abandon harmful addictions, and start eating well.

Also named:

  1. Medicine. Helps relieve pain, relieves inflammation, activates the regeneration of damaged gland cells. Suppositories are mostly used, as are antibiotics.
  2. Prostate Massage. It is considered to be the most effective method of getting rid of stagnant processes in the gland. It is carried out independently or with the help of an expert. The procedure is considered unpleasant, but must be performed without fail.
  3. Balneotherapy. With the help of the mineral waters from the sanatoriums, men are able to deal with the chronic form. It is helpful to drink healing water and bathe in it.
  4. Physiotherapy. Thermal physiotherapy gives excellent results. It helps to quickly assimilate medications, relieve general symptoms and increase blood circulation to the ailing organ.
  5. Diet is an important step in therapy. The convalescent's diet must contain vitamins, fiber, amino acids and mineral compounds. You will have to abstain from junk food (pickles, marinades, smoked meats, fried foods, fatty foods). The list of desirable products includes beverages with sour milk, lean meats and fish, nuts, dried fruits, pumpkin seeds.

Surgery is rarely used for chronic inflammation when other treatment methods do not have a positive effect or the purulent processes have already started.

Acute requires the use of medications, the use of microclysters, rectal suppositories, pain relievers, pain relievers. The patient is shown resting in bed and refusing intimacy. Once the acute period has passed, prostate massage and physiotherapy are prescribed. It is very important for this type of illness to select the necessary medications. This is only possible after correct diagnosis. What kind of money will be prescribed and in what dosage, says the expert.

Prophylaxis

In order not to develop and aggravate prostatitis, the ICD code 10 in adults is listed under number 41, you must follow the following rules:

  • lead an active and healthy lifestyle. If it is not possible to go to the gym, it is necessary to exercise in the morning, warm up during the workday and walk. A kind of gym will serve as a stairway, along which the person goes up daily to his apartment;
  • avoid body hypothermia: don't sit on a cold surface, dress for the weather, etc. . ;
  • with constipation, include foods that lax the bowels in your diet, take mild laxatives. If the disorder becomes persistent, it is advisable to consult a specialist;
  • regulate sex life. Prolonged sexual abstinence is the first step in the development of gland disease. If there is no permanent sexual partner, you can temporarily substitute masturbation, but you should not engage in this activity;
  • avoid promiscuous sex without barrier contraception. Sexually transmitted diseases may not be noticed at first, but they severely damage gland tissue, causing an infectious form of prostatitis;
  • at the slightest suspicion of a sexually transmitted infection, you should consult a venereologist or urologist. Just take a test to find the reason for the appearance of unpleasant symptoms;
  • it is necessary to see a urologist at least once a year to rule out the likelihood of the onset of the disease.

Assessments

  1. "The international classification is of great importance in the treatment of prostate inflammation of any etiology, as the ICD 10 code allows you to accurately determine the type of disease, formulate a diagnosis and carry out effective therapeutic measures. "
  2. "My father had an adenoma of the prostate. The ICD code was deciphered by the doctor when he was determined with the diagnosis. The stage is quite forgotten, the gland almost tripled. An operation was scheduled and it was successful. The recovery was delayed, because the age (over 60 years) and other chronic diseases were felt. Now he has no complaints of the genitourinary system".
  3. "Chr. Prostatitis CID 41. 1 is on my card. I have suffered from this disease for a long time, but it rarely gets worse, as I do everything to avoid the onset of acute symptoms. The doctor said that chronic diseases don't go away, they can don't show up for long if you monitor your health well. So I play sports - I run in the morning every day, I exercise, I don't drink alcohol, I don't smoke. "
