We want to make sure provider documentation states that conclusion, removing any subjectivity. If cardiac arrest is the principal diagnosis with the ventricular tachycardia as a secondary diagnosis, the codes map to DRG 298 with a relative weight of 0.4395.
Abstract Purpose of review: Ventricular tachycardia occurrence in implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) patients may result in shock delivery and is associated with increased morbidity and mortality. In addition, shocks may have deleterious mechanical and psychological effects.
Tachycardia: ICD-10 Coding. Supraventricular tachycardia (SVT) is a faster heart rate in the atria, caused by electrical impulses in the atria firing abnormally. Supraventricular tachycardia includes atrial tachycardia, atrioventricular tachycardia, atrioventricular re-entrant tachycardia, junctional tachycardia, and nodal tachycardia.
Cardiogenic shock. 2016 2017 2018 2019 2020 2021 Billable/Specific Code. R57.0 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes. The 2021 edition of ICD-10-CM R57.0 became effective on October 1, 2020.
Shock, not elsewhere classified ICD-10-CM R57. 0 is grouped within Diagnostic Related Group(s) (MS-DRG v39.0): 222 Cardiac defibrillator implant with cardiac catheterization with ami, hf or shock with mcc.
ICD-10 code I47. 2 for Ventricular tachycardia is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Diseases of the circulatory system .
The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM R57. 8 became effective on October 1, 2021. This is the American ICD-10-CM version of R57.
The appropriate ICD‐9 code for ventricular tachycardia is 427.1 (HCC 96), Paroxysmal ventricular tachycardia, (with or without documentation of “paroxysmal”). In ICD‐ 10, ventricular tachycardia leads to code I47. 2 (HCC 96), Ventricular tachycardia.

Refractory shock is variably defined as persistent hypotension with end-organ dysfunction despite fluid resuscitation, high-dose vasopressors, oxygenation, and ventilation. Fluid resuscitation and vasopressors are the initial approaches to the management of shock.
Definition. Circulatory shock is characterized by the inability of multiorgan blood flow and oxygen delivery to meet metabolic demands. Cardiogenic shock is a type of circulatory shock resulting from severe impairment of ventricular pump function rather than from abnormalities of the vascular system or blood volume.
Hypovolemic shock relates to the blood and fluids compartment while distributive shock relates to the vascular system; cardiogenic shock arises from primary cardiac dysfunction; and obstructive shock arises from a blockage of the circulation.
I47. 2 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes.
Other specified cardiac arrhythmias I49. 8 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 I49. 8 became effective on October 1, 2021.
Recurrent sustained ventricular tachycardia is one of the late complications following recovery from myocardial infarction. Our definition of “sustained” ventricular tachycardia relates to episodes which necessitate either cardioversion or parenteral medication for termination.
Shock, not elsewhere classified. Clinical Information. Shock resulting from diminution of cardiac output in heart disease. Shock resulting from primary failure of the heart in its pumping function, as in myocardial infarction, severe cardiomyopathy, or mechanical obstruction or compression of the heart.
The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM R57.0 became effective on October 1, 2021.
In ICD-10-CM the codes would be I47.2, ventricular tachycardia, and code I46.9, Cardiac arrest, unspecified.
If the cardiac arrest is due to “other” underlying condition (I46.8), the code first note is for the underlying condition, and we still have a code (I46.9) cardiac arrest, cause unspecified. There is also an Excludes 1 note for ventricular tachycardia, which states that if the documentation provides specificity regarding the type of tachycardia, ...
If cardiac arrest is the principal diagnosis with the ventricular tachycardia as a secondary diagnosis, the codes map to DRG 298 with a relative weight of 0.4395. If the ventricular tachycardia is the principal diagnosis and the cardiac arrest is a secondary diagnosis, it maps to DRG 310 with a relative weight of 0.5627.
The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM T82.897A became effective on October 1, 2021.
Use secondary code (s) from Chapter 20, External causes of morbidity, to indicate cause of injury. Codes within the T section that include the external cause do not require an additional external cause code. Type 1 Excludes.
A disorder characterized by a dysrhythmia with abrupt onset and sudden termination of atrial contractions with a rate of 150-250 beats per minute. The rhythm disturbance originates in the atria.
Tachyarrhythmia originating either from the atria or the atrioventricular node.
Supraventricular tachycardia (SVT) is a faster heart rate in the atria, caused by electrical impulses in the atria firing abnormally. Supraventricular tachycardia includes atrial tachycardia, atrioventricular tachycardia, atrioventricular re-entrant tachycardia, junctional tachycardia, and nodal tachycardia.
Re-entry ventricular tachycardia occurs due to electrical difficulties in the heart.
Ventricular tachycardia (Vtach) occurs when there is a fast heart rate in the ventricles, which can be life threatening and cause cardiac arrest. Example: The cardiologist is called to the emergency department. A 60-year-old male, was rushed to the ED after a skydive jump.
SVT is the most common type of arrhythmia in children. Example: An 8-year-old boy is brought in by his parents with complaints of chest pain, shortness of breath, and fatigue for one month. Upon examination his heart rate was 160 BPM. Labs and ECG are performed and he is diagnosed with supraventricular tachycardia.
Atrial flutter describes a condition in which the electrical signal travels along a pathway within the right atrium. It moves in an organized circular motion, or “ circuit,” causing the atria to beat faster than the ventricles. Clinical documentation should include the type of tachycardia (re-entry, ventricular, etc.).
