Human Metapneumovirus (hMPV): Causes & Treatment

Human metapneumovirus (hMPV) is a virus that often spreads during the winter and spring. hMPV produces symptoms similar to the common cold. Most people have mild cases of hMPV, but some may have complications such as bronchiolitis, bronchitis and pneumonia. Inhalers, pain relievers and decongestants can help relieve human metapneumovirus symptoms. Overview What is human metapneumovirus? Human metapneumovirus (hMPV) is a disease that spreads from person to person through close contact. hMPV usually causes symptoms similar to the Most people will have an hMPV infection before the age of five. This virus reoccurs throughout someone’s life. hMPV infections tend to happen in the winter and early spring, along with the flu season. Who might get human metapneumovirus? Anyone can get hMPV, but people most at risk of complications include: • Children under 5. • People who are • Newborns. • People over 65. • People with asthma who use steroids. • People with How common is human metapneumovirus? Researchers estimate that about 10% to 12% of respiratory illnesses in children are related to hMPV. Most cases are mild, but about 5% to 16% of children will develop a lower respiratory tract infection, such as pneumonia. Symptoms and Causes What causes hMPV? A virus causes hMPV. It spreads from an infected person when they: • Cough. • Shake hands. • Sneeze. • Touch objects or surfaces. • Touch other people. What are the symptoms of human metapneumovirus? Human metapneumovirus produces sympt...

Documenting and Coding COPD and Asthma in ICD

With temperatures turning cooler, individuals with pulmonary diseases such as Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) and asthma face risk of exacerbation of their condition. As COPD and asthma have common features, differentiating them can be complicated, according to the American Academy of Family Physicians (AAFP). Practices also need to ensure accurate and up-to-date coding and proper documentation to ensure quality care and appropriate reimbursement, and avoid risk of audit. As physicians focus on diagnosing these chronic diseases and helping patients maximize lung function and manage exacerbations, medical billing outsourcing is a practical option to ensure accurate claim submission and payment. Asthma Asthma is a chronic disease of the airways. The condition causes the bronchial tubes to become swollen or inflamed, restricting air supply to and from the lungs. Asthma is caused by a combination of environmental and hereditary factors. Asthma triggers differ from person to person and include: pollen, dust mites, mold, pet hair, respiratory infections, physical activity, cold air, smoke, certain medications, some preservatives in foods and beverages, stress, and gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). According to the Centers for Disease Control’s (CDC), 1 in 13 people in the U.S. have asthma. More than 25 million Americans have asthma and it is the leading chronic disease in children. COPD COPD is a major cause of disability and a leading cause of death in the Un...

He attributed that increased attention to the COVID-19 pandemic. “The importance of other viruses and the diseases they cause has come to the floor and that’s why I think you’re hearing more about this virus," he said. Here's everything to know about the respiratory virus that flew under everyone's radar this season, including symptoms, transmission and treatment. What is human metapneumovirus, hMPV? Human metapneumovirus, or hMPV, is an infection that affects the upper and respiratory tract, HMPV was first discovered in 2001 and belongs to the Pneumoviridae family, which also includes respiratory syncytial virus, the CDC said. New COVID variant: More: Is human metapneumovirus just a cold? What are hMPV symptoms? People with hMPV typically experience mild symptoms similar to a cold, The CDC says common symptoms include: • Cough • Fever • Nasal congestion • Shortness of breath Young children, older adults and those with weakened immune systems are at higher risk for developing more severe disease and can experience wheezing, difficulty breathing and asthma flare-ups.
