Does anyone out there have any ideas for replacing the E code E927.0? I use it as a catch code for everything involving twisting, over exertion ...etc. I 10 just leads to unspecified activity code. For example a patient twisted her ankle by stepping wrong with no real activity ... like fall down stairs or running . ??? Thanks ! dorraine
 
Thank you ! Those are the best suggestions yet ! I never thought of tripping, stumbling when the patient is not falling , but the descriptions are pretty darn close. Thanks again !!
