Acute respiratory distress. R06.03 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 R06.03 became effective on October 1, 2018. This is the American ICD-10-CM version of R06.03 - other international versions of ICD-10 R06.03 may differ.

ICD-10 code R06. 03 for Acute respiratory distress is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Symptoms, signs and abnormal clinical and laboratory findings, not elsewhere classified .
Type I respiratory failure involves low oxygen, and normal or low carbon dioxide levels. Type II respiratory failure involves low oxygen, with high carbon dioxide.
Acute respiratory failureICD-10 code: J96. 01 Acute respiratory failure, not elsewhere classified Type 2 [with hypercapnia]
The common respiratory arrest definition is the cessation of breathing. Respiratory arrest is usually the endpoint of respiratory distress that leads to respiratory failure. Respiratory distress and failure have multiple causes, all of which, if left untreated, can deteriorate into respiratory arrest.
It often occurs at the same time as cardiac arrest, but not always. In the context of advanced cardiovascular life support, however, respiratory arrest is a state in which a patient stops breathing but maintains a pulse. Importantly, respiratory arrest can exist when breathing is ineffective, such as agonal gasping.
Acute and chronic respiratory failure, unspecified whether with hypoxia or hypercapnia. J96. 20 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes.

Types of acute respiratory failure Hypoxemic respiratory failure means that you don't have enough oxygen in your blood, but your levels of carbon dioxide are close to normal. Hypercapnic respiratory failure means that there's too much carbon dioxide in your blood, and near normal or not enough oxygen in your blood.

Respiratory arrest should be distinguished from respiratory failure. The former refers to the complete cessation of breathing, while respiratory failure is the inability to provide adequate ventilation for the body's requirements.
So, what is the difference between respiratory and cardiac arrest? The difference is a pulse. During respiratory (or pulmonary) arrest, breathing stops. During cardiac arrest, blood flow stops.
Acute respiratory failure often follows an illness or injury, such as a drug overdose, pneumonia, or a severe infection such as COVID-19. Respiratory distress and failure are serious ailments that may foretell bad outcomes, even in patients who seem otherwise healthy.
The cardiac arrest codes are found in I46. The options are I46.2, Cardiac arrest due to an underlying cardiac condition, I46.8, Cardiac arrest due to other underlying condition, and I46.9, Cardiac arrest, cause unspecified. I46.2 and I46.8 would be secondary diagnoses because if you establish the underlying cause, ...
There are approximately 350,000-400,000 cases of cardiac arrest arising outside of the hospital setting per year, and not all of these patients make it to the emergency department. The incidence in any given hospital on any given shift is somewhere between zero and what you see on TV medical shows.
The last facet of documenting the emergency department cardiac arrest is to be sure to take inventory of the resultant conditions. Did the patient fall and sustain fractures or lacerations? Were there fractured ribs from CPR? Are there sequelae such as coma or anoxic brain injury, respiratory failure or arrest, shock liver, acute kidney injury, etc.? Make precise, thorough, and exhaustive diagnoses with appropriate linkage.
If the patient dies during the admission, the cardiac arrest will not serve as a major complication or comorbidity (MCC).
This intellectual exercise reminded me of debates I had previously about whether you code cardiac arrest in the hospital if the patient is not successfully resuscitated. For that, I and Coding Clinic have a definitive answer. If a patient sustains cardiac arrest in the hospital and you attempt (or are successful at) resuscitation, you code it and the procedures performed. If the patient dies during the admission, the cardiac arrest will not serve as a major complication or comorbidity (MCC).
If there are residual issues or deficits, those could be definitive diagnoses. For instance, if the patient has anoxic brain damage and is in respiratory arrest and on a ventilator, those could be the captured diagnoses. However, I think leaving out the cardiac arrest would be leaving out a key part of the story.
On the other hand, you are doing the workup because it occurred. If a patient has a symptom that elicits a work up, but it has resolved by the time they are brought into the ED, you still can code it, such as with syncope or altered mental status.
