Complications following infusion, transfusion and therapeutic injection T80- >. ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code E83.111 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code J95.84 "Includes" further defines, or give examples of, the content of the code or category.
There are five of them, infiltration, phlebitis, hematoma, extravasation and air embolism, so let’s take a look at them. What are the most common complications of IV therapy?
This is the American ICD-10-CM version of T80.1XXA - other international versions of ICD-10 T80.1XXA may differ. Use secondary code (s) from Chapter 20, External causes of morbidity, to indicate cause of injury.
Can cause tissue damage resulting in the need for surgery, infection, disfigurement and other long-term complications. If there is a concern for extravasation, stop the fluid, discontinue the IV and notify the provider immediately. Prior to administering any medication, use clinical knowledge to determine if it is a potential vesicant.

Use Z codes to code for surgical aftercare. Z47. 89, Encounter for other orthopedic aftercare, and.
This second example uses Z09, which indicates surveillance following completed treatment of a disease, condition, or injury. Its use implies that the condition has been fully treated and no longer exists. Z09 would be used for all annual follow-up exams, provided no complications or symptoms are present.
For codes less than 6 characters that require a 7th character a placeholder 'X' should be assigned for all characters less than 6. The 7th character must always be the 7th position of a code. E.g. The ICD-10-CM code T67.4 (Heat exhaustion due to salt depletion) requires an Episode of Care identifier.
Use Additional Code note means a second code must be used in conjunction with this code. Codes with this note are Etiology codes and must be followed by a Manifestation code or codes.

Again, the essential difference between infiltration and extravasation is the type of medicine or fluid that is leaked. Extravasation is much more severe than infiltration due to vesicant agents within an IV solution .
If a complication occurs, a patient could develop a severe wound, lose function of a limb, or even suffer amputation. Understanding the difference between infiltration and extravasation is essential for healthcare professionals, and just as significant for coders.
Extravasation refers to the unintentional administration of a vesicant medication into the surrounding tissue. These are active chemical substances that can cause blistering, and in extreme cases, necrosis. It is not uncommon for a patient to receive a local injection of a reversal agent if extravasation occurs.
It is important for coders and all healthcare professionals to know the difference, and why it matters. Intravenous therapy (IV) is quite common, administered by healthcare professionals on a very regular basis. As common as it may be, however, it's linked to an unusually high risk of potential harm to the patient.
It is important to note that infiltration and extravasation can exist at the same time. Doctors often use infiltration and extravasation interchangeably.
Transfusional hemosiderosis is the accumulation of iron in the liver and/or heart but also endocrine organs, in patients who receive frequent blood transfusions (such as those with thalassemia, sickle cell disease, aplastic anemia or myelodysplastic syndrome).
This is the official approximate match mapping between ICD9 and ICD10, as provided by the General Equivalency mapping crosswalk. This means that while there is no exact mapping between this ICD10 code T80.89XA and a single ICD9 code, 999.89 is an approximate match for comparison and conversion purposes.
Signs of IV infiltration may be: Skin appearing white or blanched. Swelling. Discomfort. Redness. Stretched skin. Fluid leaking.
It can be caused when IV pierces through a vein, or when the wrong size catheter is being used or becomes dislodged. It can also happen when the IV is improperly placed. Healthcare providers are not always at fault for IV infiltration. Sometimes IV infiltration can occur because the patient flexed a joint or got in or out of bed.
IVs, or intravenous therapy, works by delivering liquids such as medications, blood, or saline, directly into a patient’s bloodstream via a needle. In fact, an IV works because a plastic piece called a catheter is introduced into the vein by a needle.
IV infiltration occurs when the liquid leaks into the surrounding tissue instead of being delivered into the vein. It can be caused when IV pierces through a vein, or when the wrong size catheter is being used or becomes dislodged.
What infiltration is it’s the leaking of the fluid outside of the IV into the soft tissue of the patient’s extremity. For example, what happens is your patient’s arm or leg or whatever it is maybe swollen, maybe tender, and it could also be cold because of all the fluid that’s accumulated.
IV Complications can be mild to life threatening and include: Infiltration. Phlebitis. Hematoma. Extravasation (extravascular infiltration of IV fluid or medication) Air Embolism.
Hematoma. Occurrence of blood at the site of the IV. Typically, happens because of passing through both sides of the vessel during insertion or poor application of pressure after removal. Discontinue the IV and apply a pressure bandage. Extravasation. Infiltration of irritating or caustic fluid or medication outside a blood vessel.
Inflammation of the tissue because of the IV fluid or inserting an IV. The area can appear red and swollen. Treatment includes warm compresses, elevation of the site and occasional non-steroidal anti-inflammatories (only if the IV is still patent) Antibiotics typically aren’t needed.
Hematoma: leaking of blood outside of the vessel into that soft tissue space. 4. Extravasation: leaking of a caustic substance outside of the vessel into the soft tissue space. 5. Air embolism: injection of air into the blood vessel. The first one is infiltration.
