ICD 9 codes for dialysis?

[Hellllllo Nurse, BSN, RN]

As a traveling hemodialysis nurse, I am often in need of ICD9 codes. Frequently, I'm the only nurse in the facilities I work and there's no one to ask where things are.

Does anyone know where I can get a list of ICD9 codes for the following?

Clotted access, permcath

Use of Activase

Permcath infection

Permcath exit site infection

Blood sepsis

Clotted graft

Clotted fistula

Anemia mgmt w/ Epo

Bone mgmt w/ Zemplar & Hectorol

Anemia mgmt w/ Ferrlecit & Venofer

Anticoagulation w/ Heparin

Hyperkalemia

Hypokalemia

I've searched general ICD 9 code sites and can't find what I need.

Any help you could give would be greatly appreciated!

i can find hypokalemia if you like. I am the charge nurse of a dialysis unit in boston and made a spread sheet of many other icd-9 codes. these are some that i can remember of the top of my head. if you would like a copy of this sheet or need anything else, i would be happy to help. i can send you what you need. I hope this helps

585.6 is the code for ESRD stage V, you can use it as well for scheduling procedures such as fistulograms, thrombectomies, that are specific for dialysis pts.

Blood cultures can also be 136.9 for unspecified infection

The ICD-9 codes listed by dialec are the ones I use as well
