The doctors who have participated in the discussion were:
Stage 2 diastolic dysfunction is considered moderate diastolic dysfunction and is associated with elevated left atrial filling pressures. These patients more commonly have symptoms of heart failure and many have left atrial enlargement due to the elevated pressures in the left heart. Surely the reports are not normal and you need to follow up ...
The grade 1 diastolic dysfunction is a mild condition that can also be termed as the early stage of diastolic dysfunction. There are no clinical signs of grade 1 diastolic dysfunction symptoms in many patients As such it often goes undetected until it reaches a higher grade.
Diastolic dysfunction means the heart’s main pumping chambers, the ventricles, are stiff and unable to relax normally. It may lead to heart failure with preserved ejection fraction, which can cause breathing problems and swelling in the feet and legs.
There is no code within the ICD-10-CM code set for diastolic dysfunction. When you look up dysfunction, heart in the alphabetic index it leads to I51. 89 Other ill-defined heart disease and likely the use of the diastolic heart failure code applied to documentation of the term dysfunction would be denied.
Background. Left ventricular diastolic dysfunction (DD) is defined as the inability of the ventricle to fill to a normal end-diastolic volume, both during exercise as well as at rest, while left atrial pressure does not exceed 12 mm Hg.
I50. 1 - Left ventricular failure, unspecified. ICD-10-CM.

Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF), also called diastolic failure (or diastolic dysfunction): The left ventricle loses its ability to relax normally (because the muscle has become stiff). The heart can't properly fill with blood during the resting period between each beat.
Abnormalities in diastolic function can occur in the presence or absence of a clinical syndrome of heart failure and with normal or abnormal systolic function. Therefore, whereas diastolic dysfunction describes an abnormal mechanical property, diastolic heart failure describes a clinical syndrome.
Grade II – This diastolic dysfunction is characterized by increased filling pressure in the atrium and is considered to be moderate stage disease. The left atrium may also increase in size due to the increased pressure.
Left ventricular systolic dysfunction (LVSD) is a common and serious complication of myocardial infarction (MI) that leads to greatly increased risks of sudden death and of heart failure. Effective and cost effective treatment is available for such patients that can reduce both morbidity and mortality.
July 09, 2019. Left ventricular dysfunction refers to the condition characterized by dilation of the left ventricle of the heart. It is also associated with the narrowing of blood vessels. The main function of the left ventricle is to pump the oxygen-rich blood to all body parts.
Grade 1 diastolic dysfunction occurs when the left lower chamber of the heart (the left ventricle) has trouble relaxing in between beats because it has stiffened over time. It interferes slightly with the heart's most important job—getting oxygen-rich blood to the rest of the body.

When the provider has linked either diastolic or systolic dysfunction with acute or chronic heart failure, it should be coded as 'acute/chronic diastolic or systolic heart failure. ' If there is no provider documentation linking the two conditions, assign code I50. 9, Heart failure, unspecified.”
