A patient with metastatic bone cancer (primary site unknown) presents to the oncologist's office for a chemotherapy treatment. On examination, the oncologist finds the patient to be severely dehydrated and cancels the chemotherapy. The patient receives intravenous hydration in the office and reschedules the chemotherapy treatment. What ICD-10-CM codes are reported?

Step 1
The primary reason for the visit is the treatment of metastatic bone cancer. However, the chemotherapy was canceled due to severe dehydration. Therefore, the primary diagnosis for this visit is severe dehydration. Show more…

A physician refers the patient to outpatient radiology for a chest x-ray because of weakness and chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML). The radiology report demonstrated no acute disease and moderate hiatal hernia. Assign the correct ICD-10-CM code(s) to be reported by the facility.

In computing the dosage for chemotherapy, a patient's body surface area is needed. A good approximation of a person's surface area $s,$ in square meters $\left(m^{2}\right),$ is given by the formula $$s=\sqrt{\frac{h w}{3600}},$$ where w is the patient's weight in kilograms (kg) and h is the patient's height in centimeters (cm). (Source: U.S. Oncology.) Use the preceding information. Round your answers to the nearest thousandth. Assume that a patient's weight is 70 kg. Approximate the patient's surface area assuming that: a) The patients height is 150 cm. b) The patients height is 180 cm.
