The University HealthSystem Consortium (UHC) clinical database recently added a specific procedural code for laparoscopic gastric bypass. The goal of this study was to compare the use and outcomes of laparoscopic versus open gastric bypass at academic centers. Using ICD-9 diagnosis and procedure ...
Case Definition We identified cases of RYGB by selecting all records with diagnosis related group equal to 288 (operating room procedure for obesity) and procedure identifiable as being for gastric bypass—ICD-9-CM codes 44.31 and 44.39. Unique codes for laparoscopic RYGB do not exist and alternat...

Prospectively derived administrative cost data of patients who were coded with a primary diagnosis of obesity (ICD-10 code E.66.X), a procedure of gastric bypass surgery (CHOP code 44.3), and a robotic identifier (CHOP codes 00.90.50 or 00.39) during the years 2012 to 2015 was analyzed an...
we analyzed discharge data on patients with morbid obesity who underwent laparoscopic or open roux-en-y gastric bypass using international classification of diseases, ninth revision (icd-9) procedure codes for laparoscopic gastric bypass (code 44.38) and open gastric bypass (codes 44.31 and 44.39) ...
However, laparoscopic gastric bypass has shown to effectively resolve GERD symptoms in morbidly obese. The outcomes of laparoscopic fundoplication and gastric bypass in morbidly obese with GERD were compared at US academic medical centers. Methods Using ICD-9 procedural code diagnoses for 27,264 ...
This is consistent with previous studies that reported gallstone formation was more likely in patients who received total rather than subtotal gastrectomy and those with gastrointestinal reconstruction that bypass the duodenum (i.e., Roux-en-Y, Billroth II) rather than anastomosing the residual ...
