preop dx: Gunshot wound to the distal humerus with comminuted fracture.
postop dx: same

Name of Procedure: Reduction and application of posterior splint to right distal humeral fracture.

Description of procedure:
At this time, the patient had already received pain medication earlier for injury and at this time, gentle traction was placed on the arm as a posterior splint was placed posterior to the forearm and up to just past the mid-shaft of the humerus. A standard plaster splint was used after appropriate padding and this was held in place and at the end of the procedure radial pulse was palpated and it was 2+ and he had normal sensation in the hand. There were no immediate complications and blood loss.

Okay, I get confused on reduction at bedside. I came up with cpt code 24545 and I’m so not sure. thank in advance
