Immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) is an autoimmune bleeding disorder characterized by abnormally low levels of blood cells called platelets, a situation which is referred to as thrombocytopenia.
Immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) is a disorder that can lead to easy or excessive bruising and bleeding. The bleeding results from unusually low levels of platelets — the cells that help blood clot.
D69. 3 - Immune thrombocytopenic purpura. ICD-10-CM.
ICD-10-CM Code for Thrombocytopenia, unspecified D69. 6.
Adult chronic immune thrombocytopenic purpura (chronic ITP) is an autoimmune disorder in which patients produce antiplatelet autoantibodies and specialized white blood cells that destroy their blood platelets and, in some cases, damage their megakaryocytes (the cells that produce platelets in the bone marrow), causing ...
To diagnose immune thrombocytopenia, your doctor is likely to order further blood tests that require drawing a small amount of blood from a vein in an arm. He or she may also refer you to a specialist in blood diseases (hematologist).
The ITP Syndrome ITP is an autoimmune bleeding disorder caused by various etiologies, which is characterized by increased platelet destruction and impaired production, resulting in a decreased platelet count. Primary ITP is idiopathic, whereas secondary ITP is linked to an underlying condition (1).
Degrees of thrombocytopenia can be further subdivided into mild (platelet count 100,000 to 150,000/microL), moderate (50,000 to 99,000/microL), and severe (<50,000/microL) [1].

Thrombocytopenia, unspecified D69. 6 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes. The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM D69. 6 became effective on October 1, 2021.
(THROM-boh-sy-toh-PEE-nee-uh) A condition in which there is a lower-than-normal number of platelets in the blood. It may result in easy bruising and excessive bleeding from wounds or bleeding in mucous membranes and other tissues.
Clinical Information. A condition in which there is a lower-than-normal number of platelets in the blood. It may result in easy bruising and excessive bleeding from wounds or bleeding in mucous membranes and other tissues.
A decrease in the number of platelets in the blood that may result in easy bruising and excessive bleeding from wound s or bleeding in mucous membranes and other tissues. A finding based on laboratory test results that indicate a decrease in number of platelets in a blood specimen. A subnormal level of blood platelets.
Both of these events may occur simultaneously or one may follow on from the other. Specialty: Hematology. ICD 9 Code: 287.32.
This means that while there is no exact mapping between this ICD10 code D69.3 and a single ICD9 code, 287.39 is an approximate match for comparison and conversion purposes.
