Acute and chronic prostatitis according to ICD

Prostatitis 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 used in the medical community that is periodically reviewed by the World Health Organization. It includes a list of all diseases and pathologies that occur in humans. It is called the International Classification of Diseases (ICD). Its main objective is to provide assistance in the study of the patient's condition and to create optimal conditions for this by systematically registering the available data. Information is collected from around the world and encrypted according to certain designations. At any time, it can be added and retrieved for further study.

Important! The ICD table contains classes and groups marked with codes. A heading may contain several forms and manifestations of the same disease. Entries are arranged in alphabetical order for easy tracking.

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;
• prostatitis - 41. 3;
• other inflammatory conditions of the prostate - 41. 8;

Prostatitis according to ICD-10

Prostatitis codes according to ICD 10 - 41. If benign hyperplasia develops in the organ, the disease is assigned under a different number. Prostate adenoma codes for ICD 10 in adults are registered with numbers 40 to 51. These titles include many different types of fibroids and fibroids.

It belongs to the most common urological diseases affecting men of all ages. In general, the inflammatory process in the glandular tissues is often observed in a chronic form without obvious acute signs in the first place.

Experts classify diseases by the nature of the course:

• acute, occurring in 50% of patients no older than 30-35 years. Mainly associated with bacterial infections;
• chronic. It does not manifest itself for a long time and can develop against the background of an infectious process.

Due to the occurrence, it happens:

• bacteria occurring in the organ;
• non-bacterial, in which pathological changes take place in a predominantly chronic form;
• virus, in which the entire genital area is affected.

By the nature of structural changes, they are distinguished:

• fiber form. The growth of glandular tissue is quite rapid and requires thorough treatment. Clinically similar to ICD prostate tumor in that 40. 0;
• calculate. It occurs when deposits are formed in the tissues of glandular organs. It is considered a harbinger of cancer;
• stagnant form. Occurs when inactivity, prolonged sexual abstinence.

Causes and symptoms

Pathologies of the gland, both chronic and acute, are directly related to the conduct of an improper lifestyle, addiction to tobacco and alcohol, and poor physical activity.

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

• sexually transmitted infections: gonococci, Escherichia coli, chlamydia, etc. Frequent change of sexual partners increases the risk of infection;
• obstruction in the pelvic organs associated with impaired blood circulation;
• sedentary lifestyle, sedentary, inactive;
• abstaining from prolonged sex, abusing drugs to prolong sex, deliberately delaying ejaculation during intimacy to prolong the duration of sex;
• reduced immunity;
• psychological - emotional stress, severe stress;
• overwork;
• Hypothermia;
• failure in the endocrine system;
• unbalanced diet;
• addicted.

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

Specifics

The acute form is accompanied by severe clinical symptoms, and all tissues of the glandular organs are involved in the pathological process. Therefore, the disease causes pain, difficulty: with an increase in body temperature, a sign of general intoxication.

Patients complain of:

• heaviness and pain in the groin, pelvis, lower back;
• sensation of squeezing the rectum;

In the chronic form of the disease in the lower abdomen, some men experience pain of varying intensity, problems with erection and ability to function. 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 factor may be aggravated. Acute ICD 41. 0 inflammation leads to edema of the glandular tissues, causing acute urinary retention.

Such diseases, if not treated appropriately, lead to serious complications:

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

Diagnosis of disease

In some cases, a rectal examination and familiarity with the patient's complaints alone are sufficient to make a diagnosis. However, inflammation is mainly diagnosed by laboratory and instrumental testing methods.

Patients are referred to:

• blood and urine tests to identify infection and inflammation;
• analysis of secretions of the prostate gland;
• ultrasound examination of the prostate, kidneys, bladder;
• urethroscopy;
• MRI of the pelvic organs;
• PSA blood test;
• biopsy;
• X ray.

One of the most effective diagnostic methods is a digital rectal examination of the prostate gland. Although in its acute form, this organ is very sensitive, and the procedure can bring the patient severe pain.

Treatment strategies
