2022 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code R55: Syncope and collapse.
A spontaneous loss of consciousness caused by insufficient blood supply to the brain.
Syncope is a temporary loss of consciousness usually related to insufficient blood flow to the brain. It's also called fainting or "passing out."

Vasovagal syncope (vay-zoh-VAY-gul SING-kuh-pee) occurs when you faint because your body overreacts to certain triggers, such as the sight of blood or extreme emotional distress. It may also be called neurocardiogenic syncope. The vasovagal syncope trigger causes your heart rate and blood pressure to drop suddenly.
What causes syncope?low blood pressure or dilated blood vessels.irregular heart beat.abrupt changes in posture, such as standing up too quickly, which can cause blood to pool in the feet or legs.standing for long periods of time.extreme pain or fear.extreme stress.pregnancy.dehydration.More items...
ICD-Code I10 is a billable ICD-10 code used for healthcare diagnosis reimbursement of Essential (Primary) Hypertension.
This causes blood pressure to drop, so less blood flows to the brain and fainting (syncope) or near-fainting (pre-syncope) occurs. Reflex syncope is the most frequent cause of fainting. Vasovagal syncope — the common faint — occurs in one third of the population.
A major issue in the use of diagnostic tests is that syncope is a transient symptom and not a disease. Typically patients are asymptomatic at the time of evaluation and the opportunity to capture a spontaneous event during diagnostic testing is rare.
Vasovagal syncope is the most common cause of fainting. It happens when the blood vessels open too wide or the heartbeat slows, causing a temporary lack of blood flow to the brain. It's generally not a dangerous condition. To prevent fainting, stay out of hot places and don't stand for long periods.
Extremely weak; threatened with syncope. Fainting due to a sudden fall of blood pressure below the level required to maintain oxygenation of brain tissue. If you've ever fainted, you are not alone - at least one third of people faint sometime in their lives. Fainting is a temporary loss of consciousness.
A spontaneous loss of consciousness caused by insufficient blood to the brain. A transient loss of consciousness and postural tone caused by diminished blood flow to the brain (i.e., brain ischemia).
intracranial injury ( S06.-) A disorder characterized by spontaneous loss of consciousness caused by insufficient blood supply to the brain. A spontaneous loss of consciousness caused by insufficient blood supply to the brain. A spontaneous loss of consciousness caused by insufficient blood to the brain.
R55 is a billable ICD code used to specify a diagnosis of syncope and collapse. A 'billable code' is detailed enough to be used to specify a medical diagnosis.
These symptoms may include lightheadedness, sweating, pale skin, blurred vision, nausea, vomiting, and feeling warm, among others. Syncope may also be associated with a short episode of muscle twitching.
Syncope , also known as fainting, passing out and swooning, is defined as a short loss of consciousness and muscle strength, characterized by a fast onset, short duration, and spontaneous recovery. It is due to a decrease in blood flow to the entire brain usually from low blood pressure. Some causes have prodromal symptoms before the loss of consciousness occurs. These symptoms may include lightheadedness, sweating, pale skin, blurred vision, nausea, vomiting, and feeling warm, among others. Syncope may also be associated with a short episode of muscle twitching. If a person does not completely lose consciousness and muscle strength it is referred to as presyncope. It is recommended that presyncope be treated the same as syncope.
If a person does not completely lose consciousness and muscle strength it is referred to as presyncope. It is recommended that presyncope be treated the same as syncope. Specialty:
The International Classification of Diseases (ICD) is the publication that the US uses for coding and classifying. The US is currently on its 10th Revision (ICD-10) which includes Clinical Modification for medical diagnoses. This publication has periodic revisions to reflect changes in the medical and healthcare field.
But some codes aren’t billable, such as W59.22, Struck by turtle. Instead, they have more specific classifications including for initial and subsequent encounters. Even the most outrageous codes have logic behind them. They make it easier to classify situations and certain instances have made them necessary to add.
Their currently revising everything for ICD-11 which is set to release on January 1, 2022. If you look through the current revision, some of these diagnosis codes are hard to take seriously.
