ICD-10 Clinic Advanced - Book 3: The Respiratory and Digestive Record

Respiratory failure and the sequencing rule that decides when it leads, pneumonia chosen by organism and by route, asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease at working speed, then the digestive record: ulcers where the bleeding is already inside the code, obstruction, the gallbladder and pancreas, and a liver that fails in stages.

The ten chapters:

1. Respiratory failure

2. When respiratory failure leads

3. Pneumonia by organism

4. Pneumonia by route

5. Asthma and obstructive lung disease

6. Ventilation and dependence

7. Ulcers and the bleeding inside the code

8. Obstruction and diverticular disease

9. The gallbladder and the pancreas

10. A liver that fails in stages

Twenty-five A4 pages in full colour. Every chapter closes with its rule stated in a single line, so you can revise the whole book from the rules alone. Then a two-page Coding Lab working full records step by step, a page of the eight pitfalls that cost the most marks, fifteen practice questions with a worked answer for every one, and a glossary.

Written in short sentences and plain English, for readers whose first language is not English and clearer for everyone else because of it.

Every ICD-10-CM code in this book was verified against the official 2026 code set before the file was made. Instant PDF download. By M.R. Sterling.
