Hello Everyone,
I have a resident that recently sustained a fracture. she has
had a decline in her adl's. Which we are pursuing a significant change
on her. When wound nurse looked at resident. She noticed that this
resident had a fluid filled sac hanging off of her foot. The sac was
approximately 4x4 in measurement. The area is not on resident's heel
it is on the side of her foot. When I looked at it this am the fluid
filled sac has disipated a little. How would anyone code this in
section M?
Thanks to all in advance for your help,
Billie Stewart, RNAC
