Some ICD-10-CM codes you may use for CHF and/or acute pulmonary edema include, but are not limited to: I50.21, acute systolic (congestive) heart failure I50.23, acute on chronic systolic (congestive) heart failure I50.31, acute diastolic (congestive) heart failure I50.33, acute on chronic diastolic (congestive) heart failure
Chemical pulmonary edema (acute) (chronic) pulmonary edema (acute) (chronic) NOS ( J81.-) bronchiectasis ( J47.-) interstitial lung disease ( J84.-)
A 'billable code' is detailed enough to be used to specify a medical diagnosis. Pulmonary Oedema (British English), or edema (American English; both words from the Greek οἴδημα), is fluid accumulation in the air spaces and parenchyma of the lungs.
Pulmonary oedema, especially acute, can lead to fatal respiratory distress or cardiac arrest due to hypoxia. It is a cardinal feature of congestive heart failure. Pulmonary edema with small pleural effusions on both sides.
ICD-10 code J81. 0 for Acute pulmonary edema is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Diseases of the respiratory system .
J81. 0, acute pulmonary edema.
Pulmonary edema is often caused by congestive heart failure. When the heart is not able to pump efficiently, blood can back up into the veins that take blood through the lungs. As the pressure in these blood vessels increases, fluid is pushed into the air spaces (alveoli) in the lungs.
Acute pulmonary edema is listed as a discharge diagnosis. Code congestive heart failure as the principal diagnosis.
ICD-10 code I31. 3 for Pericardial effusion (noninflammatory) is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Diseases of the circulatory system .
Acute pulmonary oedema is a medical emergency which requires immediate management. 1. It is characterised by dyspnoea and hypoxia secondary to fluid accumulation in the lungs which impairs gas exchange and lung compliance. 2.
Cardiogenic pulmonary edema is a common and potentially fatal cause of acute respiratory failure. Cardiogenic pulmonary edema is most often a result of acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF).
Left-sided heart failure is related to pulmonary congestion. The left side of the heart receives oxygen-rich blood from the lungs. When the left side is not pumping correctly, blood backs up in the blood vessels of the lungs — pulmonary edema.
Noncardiogenic pulmonary edema is caused by changes in capillary permeability as a result of a direct or an indirect pathologic insult, while cardiogenic pulmonary edema occurs due to increased capillary hydrostatic pressure secondary to elevated pulmonary venous pressure.

Acute systolic (congestive) heart failure The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM I50. 21 became effective on October 1, 2021. This is the American ICD-10-CM version of I50.
The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM I50. 33 became effective on October 1, 2021. This is the American ICD-10-CM version of I50.
Mechanisms for non-cardiogenic pulmonary edema include an increased capillary permeability and changes in pressure gradients within the pulmonary vasculature causing inflammation.
If the documentation is unclear, clarification would be needed. Although linking language is not required, it is best practice to link the etiology to acute pulmonary edema, leaving no question about its underlying cause and providers should be educated as such.
The onset of acute pulmonary edema often has a sudden onset, but it can be gradual as well. A patient with acute pulmonary edema typically demonstrates a variety of symptoms such as shortness of breath, especially while lying flat or with activity, wheezing, bilateral infiltrates on chest x-ray, a feeling of drowning, tachypnea, tachycardia, dizziness, restlessness, anxiety/agitation, frothy and/or pink tinged sputum, cyanosis and a variety of additional symptoms based on the underlying etiology.
The ICD code J81 is used to code Pulmonary edema. Pulmonary Oedema (British English), or edema (American English; both words from the Greek οἴδημα), is fluid accumulation in the air spaces and parenchyma of the lungs. It leads to impaired gas exchange and may cause respiratory failure. It is due to either failure of the left ventricle ...
