Cardiac syndrome X, also known as microvascular angina, is a condition characterized by chest pain and other symptoms of angina, despite normal coronary arteries on angiography. The ICD-10 code for Cardiac syndrome X is I20.8, which falls under the category of "Other forms of angina pectoris." Unfortunately, there is no specific ICD-9 code for Cardiac syndrome X, as ICD-9 does not provide a separate code for this condition.
Cardiac syndrome X, also known as microvascular angina, is a condition characterized by chest pain (angina) despite the absence of significant blockages in the major coronary arteries. The International Classification of Diseases, 10th Revision (ICD-10) provides a specific code for this condition. The ICD-10 code for cardiac syndrome X is I20.8. This code falls under the category of "Other forms of angina pectoris" in the ICD-10 coding system.
On the other hand, the previous version of the classification system, ICD-9, also included a code for this condition. The ICD-9 code for cardiac syndrome X was 411.89. This code fell under the category of "Other acute and subacute forms of ischemic heart disease" in the ICD-9 coding system.
It is important to note that ICD codes are used for medical billing, research, and statistical purposes. They provide a standardized way to classify and report diagnoses. However, it is always recommended to consult with a healthcare professional for accurate diagnosis and appropriate treatment of any medical condition, including cardiac syndrome X or microvascular angina.
