Coders should be assessing their knowledge of anatomy and physiology and preparing for ICD-10-CM/PCSâs more detailed documentation requirements for code capture. The upcoming series of articles will review and discuss the various anatomy and physiology body systems as well as how ICD-10-CM/PCS is impacted by them.

Epidemiology. Croup is the most common pediatric illness that causes acute stridor, accounting for approximately 15% of clinic and emergency department visits for pediatric respiratory tract infections. It is primarily a disease of infants and toddlers, with a peak incidence from age 6 months to 36 months (3 years).ge. Primarily a disease of infants and toddlers, croup has a peak incidence from age 6-36 months (3 y). In North America, incidence peaks during the second year of life, at 5-6 cases per 100 children.
