Clinical Classification

Clinical Information

  • Waardenburg Syndrome

    rare, autosomal dominant disease with variable penetrance and several known clinical types. characteristics may include depigmentation of the hair and skin, congenital deafness, heterochromia iridis, medial eyebrow hyperplasia, hypertrophy of the nasal root, and especially dystopia canthorum. the underlying cause may be defective development of the neural crest (neurocristopathy). waardenburg's syndrome may be closely related to piebaldism. klein-waardenburg syndrome refers to a disorder that also includes upper limb abnormalities.
  • CHARGE Syndrome

    rare disease characterized by coloboma; choanal atresia; and abnormal semicircular canals. mutations in chd7 protein resulting in disturbed neural crest development are associated with charge syndrome.
  • Stickler Syndrome

    a rare autosomal dominant syndrome caused by mutations in the col11a1, col11a2, and col2a1 genes which affect the production of type ii and xi collagen. it is characterized by a range of signs and symptoms including cleft palate, large tongue, small lower jaw, hearing loss, myopia, glaucoma, retinal detachment, skeletal, and joint abnormalities.
  • Stickler Syndrome Type 1|STL1

    stickler syndrome inherited in an autosomal dominant pattern, caused by mutation(s) in the col2a1 gene, encoding collagen alpha-1(ii) chain.
  • Stickler Syndrome Type 2|Stickler Syndrome Type II

    a rare autosomal dominant syndrome caused by mutations in the col11a1 gene. it is characterized by an abnormal ocular vitreous architecture (beaded vitreous phenotype). other signs and symptoms include retinal detachment, joint hypermobility, hearing loss, and midline clefting.

Present on Admission (POA)

Q89.8 is exempt from POA reporting - The Present on Admission (POA) indicator is used for diagnosis codes included in claims involving inpatient admissions to general acute care hospitals. POA indicators must be reported to CMS on each claim to facilitate the grouping of diagnoses codes into the proper Diagnostic Related Groups (DRG). CMS publishes a listing of specific diagnosis codes that are exempt from the POA reporting requirement. Review other POA exempt codes here.

Footnotes

[1] Chronic - a chronic condition code indicates a condition lasting 12 months or longer and its effect on the patient based on one or both of the following criteria:

  • The condition results in the need for ongoing intervention with medical products,treatment, services, and special equipment
  • The condition places limitations on self-care, independent living, and social interactions.
