Difficulty breathing can cut off air to the brain and cause permanent health issues.xyContin overdose complications. The most dangerous complication of OxyContin overdose is slowed or shallow breathing. An OxyContin overdose can even cause your breathing to stop, if you take enough of the drug.
Trigger Point Injections (20552 and 20553) Always read the full description of a CPT code. For example, 20552 is reported for 1 or 2 muscle groups injected and 20553 is reported for 3 or more muscle groups injected. Example: The patient presented with trigger points in the upper right shoulder and neck region. Injections of lidocaine 2% were injected into three areas of the neck and two areas of the right shoulder into the previously located trigger points. The patient tolerated the procedure well.
Schmitt trigger. Â© A Dictionary of Computing 2004, originally published by Oxford University Press 2004. Schmitt trigger A discrete or integrated circuit whose output has two stable states, i.e. two sustainable values of output voltage, to which it is driven by the movement of its input voltage past two well-defined trigger values. A rise in input voltage above one trigger level causes the output to switch to one state. A fall in input voltage below the other trigger level causes the output to switch to the other state. The difference between the positive and negative thresholds is known as the circuits hysteresis. For the output to change, the input must exceed the hysteresis and be of the appropriate polarity.
