Code First
- underlying condition
Certain conditions have both an underlying etiology and multiple body system manifestations due to the underlying etiology. For such conditions, the ICD-10-CM has a coding convention that requires the underlying condition be sequenced first followed by the manifestation. Wherever such a combination exists, there is a "use additional code" note at the etiology code, and a "code first" note at the manifestation code. These instructional notes indicate the proper sequencing order of the codes, etiology followed by manifestation.

Clinical InformationClinical
Obstructive Sleep Apnea Syndrome
a disorder characterized by recurrent episodic disruptions of breathing during sleep. it is caused by the intermittent relaxation of pharyngeal muscles leading to the narrowing or complete blockage of the upper airway. this results in compensatory arousal from sleep to breathe again. an anatomically narrow airway from body habitus or enlarged pharyngeal structures may also predispose to obstruction. clinical presentation usually includes snoring, daytime sleepiness, difficulty concentrating and fatigue. clinical course may progress to chronic hypoxemia with cardiovascular and cerebrovascular sequelae.
Patient EducationClinical
Sleep Disorders
Sleep is a complex biological process. While you are sleeping, you are unconscious, but your brain and body functions are still active. They are doing a number of important jobs that help you stay healthy and function at your best. So when you don't get enough quality sleep, it does more than just make you feel tired.
