The World Health Organization estimates that approximately 60-80% of the world's population suffer from chronic gastritis in one way or another. ICD 10 classifies this disease as code K29.5.
ICD 10 is the International Classification of Diseases 10 of the revision, which acts as a single normative document in the Russian Federation since 1999.Through the use of this document, the classification of chronic gastritis helps to collect statistical data to account for the number of complete recoveries, relapses, deaths.
Before the introduction of the MKB, there was the Sydney classification of chronic gastritis, which in turn was replaced by the OLGA system. But in the Russian Federation this system was not adopted, therefore chronic gastritis is classified under the code of ICD 10 code K29.5.
Chronic gastritis( ICD code 10 - K29.5) has a mild but diverse symptomatology, which makes diagnosis difficult. In addition, the patient may not consult a doctor because of the absence of severe symptoms of the disease cron.gastritis.
In this regard, in order to collect as much data for research as possible using the ICD 10 classifier, chronic gastritis was defined as "unspecified", which can be perceived as antral or fundal.
Due to the fact that between the antrum and the fundal form of the disease( cerebral gastritis according to the ICD 10), there is no clear boundary in the diagnosis, the specification does not divide them as different diseases.
At present, it is clearly defined that, despite the fact that the spread of gastritis directly depends on the abuse of acute, salty, fatty foods, it is impossible to deny the presence and influence of the Helicobacter pylori bacteria on the processes of developing disease.
This dangerous bacterium is a provocateur of almost all gastric diseases, including ulcer and stomach cancer.
If it is diagnosed hr.gastritis( MKB 10 code K29.5), then it is absolutely necessary to take the patient's analysis for the presence of Helicobacter pylori bacteria. In healthy people, it does not show up.
If the diagnosis of hr.gastritis( ICD 10 K29.5) is confirmed by laboratory tests, medication should be prescribed, which includes:
- reception of antibiotics;
- normalization of acidity in the stomach;
- reception of preparations protecting and restoring the mucous membrane.
It should be noted that helikobakter pylori is not destroyed by folk and znacharian means. For treatment of chronic gastritis, consult a specialist.
