Clinical Information

• Pre-Eclampsia-. a complication of pregnancy, characterized by a complex of symptoms including maternal hypertension and proteinuria with or without pathological edema. symptoms may range between mild and severe. pre-eclampsia usually occurs after the 20th week of gestation, but may develop before this time in the presence of trophoblastic disease.
• Proteinuria-. the presence of proteins in the urine, an indicator of kidney diseases.
• Pyuria-. the presence of white blood cells (leukocytes) in the urine. it is often associated with bacterial infections of the urinary tract. pyuria without bacteriuria can be caused by tuberculosis, stones, or cancer.
• Kidney Diseases-. pathological processes of the kidney or its component tissues.
• Grade 1 Proteinuria, CTCAE|Grade 1 Proteinuria|Grade 1 Proteinuria-. 1+ proteinuria; urinary protein > or = to uln-<1.0 g/24 hrs
• Grade 2 Proteinuria, CTCAE|Grade 2 Proteinuria|Grade 2 Proteinuria-. adult: 2+ and 3+ proteinuria; urinary protein 1.0-<3.5 g/24 hrs; pediatric: urine p/c (protein/creatinine) ratio 0.5-1.9
• Grade 3 Proteinuria, CTCAE|Grade 3 Proteinuria|Grade 3 Proteinuria-. adult: urinary protein >=3.5 g/24 hrs; 4+ proteinuria; pediatric: urine p/c (protein/creatinine) ratio >1.9
• Maternal Proteinuria-. the presence of excessive protein, chiefly albumin but also globulin, in the urine of a pregnant woman.
• Nephrotic Range Proteinuria-. in children, urine protein greater than or equal to 40mg/m^2/h; alternatively, greater than or equal to 0.25gm/mmol creatinine or 2gm/gm creatinine obtained from a first morning specimen.
• Proteinuria-. the presence of abnormal amounts of protein in the urine.
• Proteinuria, CTCAE 5.0|Proteinuria|Proteinuria-. a disorder characterized by laboratory test results that indicate the presence of excessive protein in the urine. it is predominantly albumin, but also globulin.
• Pyuria-. the presence of excessive white blood cells in the urine as determined by urinalysis.
• Sterile Pyuria|Sterile pyuria-. the presence of leukocytes in the urine without evidence of an infection. (acc/aha)

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.

Urine and Urination

Your kidneys make urine by filtering wastes and extra water from your blood. The waste is called urea. Your blood carries it to the kidneys. From the kidneys, urine travels down two thin tubes called ureters to the bladder. The bladder stores urine until you are ready to urinate. It swells into a round shape when it is full and gets smaller when empty. If your urinary system is healthy, your bladder can hold up to 16 ounces (2 cups) of urine comfortably for 2 to 5 hours.

You may have problems with urination if you have:

• Kidney failure
• Urinary tract infections
• An enlarged prostate
• Bladder control problems like incontinence, overactive bladder, or interstitial cystitis
• A blockage that prevents you from emptying your bladder

Some conditions may also cause you to have blood or protein in your urine. If you have a urinary problem, see your health care provider. Urinalysis and other urine tests can help to diagnose the problem. Treatment depends on the cause.
