Clinical Information

• Leukemia, Large Granular Lymphocytic

  a spectrum of disorders characterized by clonal expansions of the peripheral blood lymphocyte populations known as large granular lymphocytes which contain abundant cytoplasm and azurophilic granules. subtypes develop from either cd3-negative natural killer cells or cd3-positive t-cells. the clinical course of both subtypes can vary from spontaneous regression to progressive, malignant disease.

• Lymphocytosis

  excess of normal lymphocytes in the blood or in any effusion.

• Lymphohistiocytosis, Hemophagocytic

  a group of related disorders characterized by lymphocytosis; histiocytosis; and hemophagocytosis. the two major forms are familial and reactive.

• Pertussis Toxin

  one of the virulence factors produced by bordetella pertussis. it is a multimeric protein composed of five subunits s1 - s5. s1 contains mono adpribose transferase activity.

• Virulence Factors, Bordetella

  a set of bacterial adhesins and toxins, biological produced by bordetella organisms that determine the pathogenesis of bordetella infections, such as whooping cough. they include filamentous hemagglutinin; fimbriae proteins; pertactin; pertussis toxin; adenylate cyclase toxin; dermonecrotic toxin; tracheal cytotoxin; bordetella lipopolysaccharides; and tracheal colonization factor.

• Bordetella pertussis

  a species of gram-negative, aerobic bacteria that is the causative agent of whooping cough. its cells are minute coccobacilli that are surrounded by a slime sheath.

D72.820 is grouped with Diagnostic Related Groups - MS-DRG Mapping

Diagnostic Related Groups (DRGs) are a classification system used to group together diagnosis codes for the purpose of reimbursement and healthcare management. DRGs are used to standardize the way hospitals and other providers are paid for inpatient services. In this system patients are grouped together based on their principal diagnosis in areas referred to as Major Diagnostic Categories (MDC). Once a patient is assigned a particular diagnostic category, providers receive a predetermined payment rate for the services rendered. This reimbursement rate is often fixed and is meant to cover the cost of care for that patient. Reimbursement is also affected by the relative weight of a diagnostic related group based on the severity of a patient's illness and the associated cost of care during hospitalization.

Diagnostic related groups encourage healthcare providers to focus on quality and efficiency in patient care while managing costs effectively. The diagnosis code is present in the following groups for version MS-DRG V41.0 applicable from 10/01/2023 through 09/30/2024.

The relative weight of a diagnostic related group determines the reimbursement rate based on the severity of a patient's illness and the associated cost of care during hospitalization.

Patient Education

Blood Disorders

Your blood is living tissue made up of liquid and solids. The liquid part, called plasma, is made of water, salts and protein. Over half of your blood is plasma. The solid part of your blood contains red blood cells, white blood cells and platelets.

Blood disorders affect one or more parts of the blood and prevent your blood from doing its job. They can be acute or chronic. Many blood disorders are inherited. Other causes include other diseases, side effects of medicines, and a lack of certain nutrients in your diet.

Types of blood disorders include:

• Platelet disorders, excessive clotting, and bleeding problems, which affect how your blood clots
• Anemia, which happens when your blood does not carry enough oxygen to the rest of your body
• Cancers of the blood, such as leukemia and myeloma
• Eosinophilic disorders, which are problems with one type of white blood cell.
