ICD10 code of HELLP Syndrome and ICD9 code
What is the ICD10 code for HELLP Syndrome? And the ICD9 code for HELLP Syndrome?
HELLP syndrome is a severe and life-threatening complication that can occur during pregnancy, typically in the third trimester. HELLP is an acronym that stands for Hemolysis, Elevated Liver enzymes, and Low Platelet count. It is considered a variant of preeclampsia, a condition characterized by high blood pressure and organ damage.
In the International Classification of Diseases, Tenth Revision (ICD-10), HELLP syndrome is classified under the code O14.2. This code specifically refers to "HELLP syndrome," allowing healthcare professionals to accurately identify and document this condition for diagnostic and statistical purposes. The ICD-10 code O14.2 provides a standardized system for tracking and monitoring the prevalence and outcomes of HELLP syndrome.
In the previous International Classification of Diseases, Ninth Revision (ICD-9), HELLP syndrome was not assigned a specific code. Instead, it was classified under the broader category of preeclampsia/eclampsia. The ICD-9 code for preeclampsia/eclampsia is 642.4, which encompasses both preeclampsia and eclampsia, including complications like HELLP syndrome.
It is worth noting that the transition from ICD-9 to ICD-10 occurred on October 1, 2015, to provide a more detailed and comprehensive classification system. The ICD-10 code O14.2 specifically identifies HELLP syndrome, allowing for more accurate tracking, research, and appropriate medical management of this severe pregnancy complication.
Please consult with a healthcare professional or medical coding specialist for precise and up-to-date information regarding medical coding and classification systems.
