procedure:rt hip arthrogram,rt hip injection
The RT groin was prepped and draped in a sterile fashion. A spinal needle was inserted through the groin into the hip capdule. Contrast was injected and an arthrogram performed. Once it was confirmed that we are within the hip capsule, the syringes were switched and the hip was injected with a solution of Marcaine and Kenalog. Post-injection fluroscopy confirmed further intra-articular distribution of the contrast; confirming a successful injection. Sterile dressing was applied. The patient was awakened from anesthesia without event and stable to the PACU.
What codes would you use?
