711 - Personal history of pulmonary embolism.
A pulmonary embolism is a blockage in the pulmonary artery, which supplies the blood to the lungs. It is one of the most common cardiovascular diseases in the United States. Pulmonary embolism affects around 1 in 1,000 people in the U.S. every year.

Classification Based on Disease Severity. In addition to the time of presentation and the size of the embolus, a PE can also be classified based on the severity of disease. PE can be classified into three types based on the severity: massive (5-10% of cases), submassive (20-25% of cases), and low-risk (70% of cases).
Doctors split PE into three categories: acute, subacute, and chronic PE. The most common cause of PE is DVT, but genetic mutations and lifestyle factors, such as pregnancy, can also play a role in a person's risk.
Code acute PE while the patient is anticoagulated for up to three months (document duration in your note). a. After three months, anticoagulant medication is often used for prevention only. Therefore, continue coding acute PE past three months only if clinically appropriate.
Venous thromboembolism (VTE), also known as blood clots, is a disorder that includes deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism. A deep vein thrombosis (DVT) occurs when a blood clot forms in a deep vein, usually in the lower leg, thigh, or pelvis.
Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT) is a condition that occurs when a blood clot forms in the deep veins of the body. This is a serious condition as the blood clot can travel through the bloodstream and cause blockages in other parts of the body such as the lungs, causing a pulmonary embolism (PE).

Subsegmental pulmonary embolism (SSPE) affects the 4th division and more distal pulmonary arterial branches. SSPE can be isolated or affect multiple subsegments, be symptomatic or incidental (unsuspected) and may or may not be associated with deep vein thrombosis.
Acute pulmonary embolism (PE) is the prototype for acute cor pulmonale. Acute obstruction of the pulmonary vasculature may lead to acute right-sided heart failure, and at times, total cardiovascular collapse.
Clinical Information. A pulmonary embolism is a sudden blockage in a lung artery. The cause is usually a blood clot in the leg called a deep vein thrombosis that breaks loose and travels through the bloodstream to the lung. Pulmonary embolism is a serious condition that can cause. permanent damage to the affected lung.
damage to other organs in your body from not getting enough oxygen. if a clot is large, or if there are many clots, pulmonary embolism can cause death. Half the people who have pulmonary embolism have no symptoms. If you do have symptoms, they can include shortness of breath, chest pain or coughing up blood.
