Elevated urine levels of drugs, medicaments and biological substances. R82.5 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes. The 2019 edition of ICD-10-CM R82.5 became effective on October 1, 2018.
Why ICD-10 codes are important
ICD-10 is the 10th revision of the International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems (ICD), a medical classification list by the World Health Organization (WHO). It contains codes for diseases, signs and symptoms, abnormal findings, complaints, social circumstances, and external causes of injury or diseases.
Introduction. Hyperammonemia is a metabolic condition characterized by the raised levels of ammonia, a nitrogen-containing compound. Normal levels of ammonia in the body vary according to age. Hyperammonemia can result from various congenital and acquired conditions in which it may be the principal toxin.
High ammonia levels sometimes point to either liver or kidney disease. But several other things can cause higher ammonia levels, like: Bleeding in your stomach, intestines, esophagus, or other parts of your body. Alcohol and drug use, including narcotics and medicines that take extra fluid out of your body (diuretics)
ICD-10 code: R74. 8 Abnormal levels of other serum enzymes.
R94. 5 - Abnormal results of liver function studies | ICD-10-CM.
Elevated plasma ammonia level in hepatic cirrhosis has been attributed to a lack of conversion of enteric ammonia into urea or to its entry into systemic circulation via portasystemic shunting, or to both. It is exaggerated by excessive protein intake.
Signs or symptoms of a high blood ammonia level can include:confusion.excessive fatigue or sleepiness.disorientation, or confusion about surroundings, including time and place.mood shifts.irritability.hand tremors.vomiting.seizures.More items...
ICD-10 code R74. 8 for Abnormal levels of other serum enzymes is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Symptoms, signs and abnormal clinical and laboratory findings, not elsewhere classified .
GGT is useful for diagnosis of liver disease or injury, exclusion of hepatobiliary involvement related to other diseases, and patient management during the resolution of existing disease or following injury.

Transaminitis, or hypertransaminasemia, refers to unusually high levels of a family of enzymes called transaminases. Transaminitis is not a disease, but it can point to other issues that require treatment. High levels of fat or similar problems may be causing inflammation in the liver.
High levels of AST in the blood may be a sign of hepatitis, cirrhosis, mononucleosis, or other liver diseases. High AST levels may also be a sign of heart problems or pancreatitis. If your results are not in the normal range, it doesn't always mean that you have a medical condition that needs treatment.
Elevated level of ammonia in the blood. It is a sign of defective catabolism of amino acids or ammonia to urea. Inherited errors in the metabolic reactions occurring in the liver that convert ammonia to urea, resulting from inborn genetic mutations. Rare congenital metabolism disorders of the urea cycle.
Clinical Information. A genetic inborn error of metabolism characterized by the deficiency of one of the enzymes necessary for the urea cycle. It results in accumulation of ammonia in the body. A laboratory test result indicating increased levels of ammonia in the blood. Elevated level of ammonia in the blood.
