Clinical Information

• Abdominal Pain-. sensation of discomfort, distress, or agony in the abdominal region.
• Acute Pain-. intensely discomforting, distressful, or agonizing sensation associated with trauma or disease, with well-defined location, character, and timing.
• Arthralgia-. pain in the joint.
• Back Pain-. acute or chronic pain located in the posterior regions of the thorax; lumbosacral region; or the adjacent regions.
• Breakthrough Pain-. acute pain that comes on rapidly despite the use of pain medication.
• Cancer Pain-. pain that may be caused by or related to cellular, tissue, and systemic changes that occur during neoplasm growth, tissue invasion, and metastasis.
• Catastrophization-. cognitive and emotional processes encompassing magnification of pain-related stimuli, feelings of helplessness, and a generally pessimistic orientation.
• Causalgia-. a complex regional pain syndrome characterized by burning pain and marked sensitivity to touch (hyperesthesia) in the distribution of an injured peripheral nerve. autonomic dysfunction in the form of sudomotor (i.e., sympathetic innervation to sweat glands), vasomotor, and trophic skin changes may also occur. (adams et al., principles of neurology, 6th ed, p1359)
• Chest Pain-. pressure, burning, or numbness in the chest.
• Chromosome Painting-. a technique for visualizing chromosome aberrations using fluorescently labeled dna probes which are hybridized to chromosomal dna. multiple fluorochromes may be attached to the probes. upon hybridization, this produces a multicolored, or painted, effect with a unique color at each site of hybridization. this technique may also be used to identify cross-species homology by labeling probes from one species for hybridization with chromosomes from another species.
• Chronic Pain-. aching sensation that persists for more than a few months. it may or may not be associated with trauma or disease, and may persist after the initial injury has healed. its localization, character, and timing are more vague than with acute pain.
• Complex Regional Pain Syndromes-. conditions characterized by pain involving an extremity or other body region, hyperesthesia, and localized autonomic dysfunction following injury to soft tissue or nerve. the pain is usually associated with erythema; skin temperature changes, abnormal sudomotor activity (i.e., changes in sweating due to altered sympathetic innervation) or edema. the degree of pain and other manifestations is out of proportion to that expected from the inciting event. two subtypes of this condition have been described: type i; (reflex sympathetic dystrophy) and type ii; (causalgia). (from pain 1995 oct;63(1):127-33)

• Neuralgia-. intense or aching pain that occurs along the course or distribution of a peripheral or cranial nerve.
• Nociceptive Pain-. dull or sharp aching pain caused by stimulated nociceptors due to tissue injury, inflammation or diseases. it can be divided into somatic or tissue pain and visceral pain.
• Nociceptors-. peripheral afferent neurons which are sensitive to injuries or pain, usually caused by extreme thermal exposures, mechanical forces, or other noxious stimuli. their cell bodies reside in the dorsal root ganglia. their peripheral terminals (nerve endings) innervate target tissues and transduce noxious stimuli via axons to the central nervous system.

Diagnostic Related Groups - MS-DRG Mapping

The is diagnosis code is grouped in the following groups for version MS-DRG V40.0 What are Diagnostic Related Groups?
The Diagnostic Related Groups (DRGs) are a patient classification scheme which provides a means of relating the type of patients a hospital treats. The DRGs divides all possible principal diagnoses into mutually exclusive principal diagnosis areas referred to as Major Diagnostic Categories (MDC). applicable from 10/01/2022 through 09/30/2023.

Pain

Pain is a signal in your nervous system that something may be wrong. It is an unpleasant feeling, such as a prick, tingle, sting, burn, or ache. Pain may be sharp or dull. It may come and go, or it may be constant. You may feel pain in one area of your body, such as your back, abdomen, chest, pelvis, or you may feel pain all over.

Pain can be helpful in diagnosing a problem. If you never felt pain, you might seriously hurt yourself without knowing it, or you might not realize you have a medical problem that needs treatment.

There are two types of pain: acute and chronic. Acute pain usually comes on suddenly, because of a disease, injury, or inflammation. It can often be diagnosed and treated. It usually goes away, though sometimes it can turn into chronic pain. Chronic pain lasts for a long time, and can cause severe problems.

Pain is not always curable, but there are many ways to treat it. Treatment depends on the cause and type of pain. There are drug treatments, including pain relievers. There are also non-drug treatments, such as acupuncture, physical therapy, and sometimes surgery.
