ICD-10-PCS 0BJ Medical and Surgical: Respiratory System Inspection
The ICD-10-PCS root operation Inspection (code 0BJ) involves visually and/or manually examining the Respiratory System to assess its condition without altering the tissues. This procedure helps medical professionals diagnose and evaluate respiratory structures.
Within the Medical and Surgical section, this operation covers detailed inspection of parts such as the Tracheobronchial Tree, Trachea, Right and Left Lungs, Pleura, and Diaphragm. It allows for multiple approaches including Open, Percutaneous, Percutaneous Endoscopic, Via Natural or Artificial Opening (endoscopic or not), and External. For example, inspection might be coded as 0BJ04ZZ for the tracheobronchial tree using a percutaneous endoscopic approach, or as 0BJL0ZZ for open inspection of the left lung. Applying these respiratory system inspection codes ensures precise documentation of the examination method and targeted anatomical site during diagnostic respiratory procedures.
