Instructions: Assign ICD-10-PCS codes to the following case. There will be three codes for this case.




Case 1: Procedure Note



DIAGNOSIS:                                                 Low back pain—internal disk derangement



PROCEDURE:                                             Lumbar epidural steroid injection, L5-S1



ANESTHESIA:                                             Local with intravenous sedation



TECHNIQUE: In the prone position, under fluoroscopic guidance with Betadine skin prep and aseptic technique, using 2 mL of 1 percent lidocaine for the skin at the L5–S1 level, epidural was done with the loss of resistance technique. The position of the needle was confirmed under fluoroscopy on AP and lateral views. There was no paresthesia. No blood or cerebrospinal fluid on aspiration. 3 mL of 1:200 concentration Isovue was injected and the flow of contrast was found to be in the posterior epidural space. 3 mL of 1 percent preservative-free lidocaine was injected and there were no sensory/motor changes in either extremity. 40 mg of Kenalog mixed with 3 mL of preservative-free normal saline was injected. The patient tolerated the procedure well.
