MD indicates "large right pulmonary edema secondary to CKD stage V", and progress notes indicate "anasarca/pulmonary edema". Hospitalist later in the stay indicates "pulmonary edema and pleural effusion".
Just making sure of the sequencing and appropriate dx codes -
514 - pulmonary congestion/hypostasis
5856 - ckd stage V
511.9 - pleural effusion ** is this distinct from or related to the pulmonary edema???***
7823 - edema (anasarca)
any input appreciated!
