Nadia Foxhall: Hyponatraemia

ENC-00056 · 88F · Pulmonology · admitted Thu Oct 29, 2026 08:39 AM · discharged Fri Nov 06, 2026 12:09 PM · attending Dr. Gideon Zeller · resident Dr. Noor Halvorsen

Specificity gap Criteria met Open

Criteria support Hyponatraemia (profound) (E87.1); no corresponding diagnosis is documented.

Documented vs supported

Documented: not documented
Criteria support: Hyponatraemia (profound) · E87.1 Hypo-osmolality and hyponatremia
Outcome: Sodium below 135 on 6 values (lowest 121, profound) with treatment ordered
Rule: Hyponatraemia v2026.11-1
Published source: Clinical practice guideline on diagnosis and treatment of hyponatraemia (Spasovski et al., Eur J Endocrinol 2014;170:G1-G47) (2014), Classification by biochemical severity: mild 130-135, moderate 125-129, profound <125 mmol/L · source (checked 2026-11-14)

Effect if the clinician agrees (illustrative)

Change: add E87.1
Secondary-diagnosis level: — → CC
MS-DRG (illustrative): 192 Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease without CC/MCC → 191 Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease with CC
Relative weight: 0.6420 → 0.8430 (+0.2010)
Codes before: J44.1, E66.9
Codes after: J44.1, E66.9, E87.1

All open gaps on this encounter together: MS-DRG 192 → 191 (RW +0.2010).

CC/MCC status, CC exclusions (subset) and relative weights from the public CMS FY2026 IPPS final rule tables (5, 6I, 6J, 6K). This is not a grouper and not a payment estimate. Queries never mention any of this.

0.5 points

SIMULATED: Illustrative severity weights (MCC = 1.0, CC = 0.5, non-CC = 0) summed over secondary diagnoses; not a validated risk-adjustment model and not a measured effect.
