Critical illness myopathy is a disease of limb and respiratory muscles, and it is observed during treatment in the intensive care unit. This sometimes may accompany critical illness polyneuropathy.

2022 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code G72. 81: Critical illness myopathy.
Critical illness neuropathy is a disease of peripheral nerves, occurring as a complication of severe trauma or infection (critical illness). It develops while patients are in the intensive care unit and it is typically diagnosed by limb weakness and unexplained difficulty in weaning from mechanical ventilation.
Definition. The myopathies are neuromuscular disorders in which the primary symptom is muscle weakness due to dysfunction of muscle fiber. Other symptoms of myopathy can include include muscle cramps, stiffness, and spasm.
Other and unspecified myopathies Impairment of health or a condition of abnormal functioning of the muscle. Your muscles help you move and help your body work. Different types of muscles have different jobs. There are many problems that can affect muscles. Muscle disorders can cause weakness, pain or even paralysis.
Intensive care unit-acquired weakness (ICU-AW), a common neuromuscular complication associated with patients in the ICU, is a type of skeletal muscle dysfunction that commonly occurs following sepsis, mobility restriction, hyperglycemia, and the use of glucocorticoids or neuromuscular blocking agents.
Code 99291 is used for critical care, evaluation, and management of a critically ill or critically injured patient, specifically for the first 30-74 minutes of treatment. It is to be reported only once per day, per physician or group member of the same specialty.

Critical illness myopathy (CIM) and neuropathy are underdiagnosed conditions within the intensive care setting and contribute to prolonged mechanical ventilation and ventilator wean failure and ultimately lead to significant morbidity and mortality.
Myopathy can develop as the result of inherited disorders, such as muscular dystrophies, or acquired conditions of the muscles, such as the common muscle cramp. Other causes of myopathy include immune disorders that cause inflammation and pain. Numerous inherited myopathies exist.
G72.81 is a billable ICD code used to specify a diagnosis of critical illness myopathy. A 'billable code' is detailed enough to be used to specify a medical diagnosis.
Myopathy is a muscular disease in which the muscle fibers do not function for any one of many reasons, resulting in muscular weakness. "Myopathy" simply means muscle disease (myo- Greek μυο "muscle" + pathos -pathy Greek "suffering"). This meaning implies that the primary defect is within the muscle, as opposed to the nerves ...
The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM G72.4 became effective on October 1, 2021.
Inflammatory and immune myopathies, not elsewhere classified. G72.4 should not be used for reimbursement purposes as there are multiple codes below it that contain a greater level of detail. The 2021 edition of ICD-10-CM G72.4 became effective on October 1, 2020.
