Root Operation Q: Repair​

Restoring, to the extent possible, a body part to its normal anatomic structure and function.

The root operation Repair represents a broad range of procedures for restoring the anatomic structure of a body part such as suture of lacerations.

Repair also functions as the Not Elsewhere Classified (NEC) root operation, to be used when the procedure performed does not meet the definition of one of the other root operations.

Fixation devices are included for procedures to repair the bones and joints.

Some examples of Repair procedures are colostomy takedown, herniorrhaphy, and suture of laceration.
