Clinical Classification

Clinical Information

  • Myotonia

    prolonged failure of muscle relaxation after contraction. this may occur after voluntary contractions, muscle percussion, or electrical stimulation of the muscle. myotonia is a characteristic feature of myotonic disorders.
  • Myotonia Congenita

    inherited myotonic disorders with early childhood onset myotonia. muscular hypertrophy is common and myotonia may impair ambulation and other movements. it is classified as thomsen (autosomal dominant) or becker (autosomal recessive) generalized myotonia mainly based on the inheritance pattern. becker type is also clinically more severe. an autosomal dominant variant with milder symptoms and later onset is known as myotonia levior. mutations in the voltage-dependent skeletal muscle chloride channel are associated with the disorders.
  • Myotonic Disorders

    diseases characterized by myotonia, which may be inherited or acquired. myotonia may be restricted to certain muscles (e.g., intrinsic hand muscles) or occur as a generalized condition.
  • Myotonic Dystrophy

    neuromuscular disorder characterized by progressive muscular atrophy; myotonia, and various multisystem atrophies. mild intellectual disability may also occur. abnormal trinucleotide repeat expansion in the 3' untranslated regions of dmpk protein gene is associated with myotonic dystrophy 1. dna repeat expansion of zinc finger protein-9 gene intron is associated with myotonic dystrophy 2.
  • Osteochondrodysplasias

    abnormal development of cartilage and bone.
  • Muscle Fatigue

    a state arrived at through prolonged and strong contraction of a muscle. studies in athletes during prolonged submaximal exercise have shown that muscle fatigue increases in almost direct proportion to the rate of muscle glycogen depletion. muscle fatigue in short-term maximal exercise is associated with oxygen lack and an increased level of blood and muscle lactic acid, and an accompanying increase in hydrogen-ion concentration in the exercised muscle.
  • Subgaleal Hemorrhage

    bleeding between the scalp and the periosteum.
  • Subgaleal Hemorrhage Related to Birth|Epicranial Subaponeurotic Hemorrhage Related to Birth|Epicranial Subaponeurotic Hemorrhage Related to Birth

    bleeding in the potential space between the skull periosteum and the scalp galea aponeurosis of a newborn infant due to shearing forces on the tentorium and deep venous system during labor and delivery.

    Approximate Flag - The approximate mapping means there is not an exact match between the ICD-10 and ICD-9 codes and the mapped code is not a precise representation of the original code.
  • ICD-9-CM Code: 728.89 - Muscle/ligament dis NEC
    Approximate Flag - The approximate mapping means there is not an exact match between the ICD-10 and ICD-9 codes and the mapped code is not a precise representation of the original code.

Patient Education


Muscle Disorders

Your muscles help you move and help your body work. Different types of muscles have different jobs. There are many problems that can affect muscles. Muscle disorders can cause weakness, pain or even paralysis.

Causes of muscle disorders include:

  • Injury or overuse, such as sprains or strains, cramps or tendinitis
  • A genetic disorder, such as muscular dystrophy
  • Some cancers
  • Inflammation, such as myositis
  • Diseases of nerves that affect muscles
  • Infections
  • Certain medicines

Sometimes the cause of muscle disorders is unknown.

Footnotes

[1] Not chronic - A diagnosis code that does not fit the criteria for chronic condition (duration, ongoing medical treatment, and limitations) is considered not chronic. Some codes designated as not chronic are acute conditions. Other diagnosis codes that indicate a possible chronic condition, but for which the duration of the illness is not specified in the code description (i.e., we do not know the condition has lasted 12 months or longer) also are considered not chronic.
