I work w/ CC docs who are allways in a huge hurry. Unnfortunately they are brief in descriptions for dx. I am looking for a code that will suffice for placing a central line, post cardiac arrest. Not A V code, but rather in general for emergent need for immediate supplu for vasopressors and other critical medications to maintain support in a patients stability. Generally I use the underlying problem such as renal failure or respiratory failure. But many tiimes the doc does not specify the reason outside of emergent need for immediate delivery of meds. Any ideas?
