Otitis media, unspecified, left ear. H66.92 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes. The 2019 edition of ICD-10-CM H66.92 became effective on October 1, 2018. This is the American ICD-10-CM version of H66.92 - other international versions of ICD-10 H66.92 may differ.

The ICD code H72 is used to code Perforated eardrum A perforated eardrum or punctured eardrum is a rupture or perforation (hole) of the eardrum which can occur as a result of otitis media (ear infection), trauma (e.g. by trying to clean the ear with sharp instruments), explosion, loud noise or surgery (accidental creation of a rupture).

DEFINITION Acute otitis media (AOM) is an acute, suppurative infectious process marked by the presence of infected middle ear fluid and inflammation of the mucosa lining the middle ear space (picture 1).
Information: A central perforation is a perforation in the pars tensa that leaves an intact portion of the tympanic membrane between the rim of the perforation and the bony canal. The fibrous annulus, the tickened portion of the TM near the bony canal, is also intact.

Otitis media with effusion (OME) is a collection of non-infected fluid in the middle ear space. It is also called serous or secretory otitis media (SOM). This fluid may accumulate in the middle ear as a result of a cold, sore throat or upper respiratory infection.
Symptoms include sudden ear pain, or sudden decrease in ear pain, discharge (which may be bloody) or hearing loss. The vast majority of ruptured eardrums will heal without treatment. A simple perforation of the ear drum as part of acute otitis media does NOT need referral unless it persists > 6 weeks.
In other cases, frequent ear infections can cause a tympanic membrane perforation. During a middle ear infection (otitis media), pressure from pus under the tympanic membrane sometimes produces a small hole in the tympanic membrane. This is the body's natural way of draining the pus and getting it out of the ear.
Bilateral acute otitis media (AOM) is considered more severe than unilateral AOM, and several guidelines recommend more active management of bilateral AOM. However, severity of symptoms and otoscopic signs of bilateral and unilateral AOM have previously not been comprehensively studied.
The classification was according to the size of perforation: small perforation, <1 quadrants or maximum diameter <3. mm; middle perforation, >1 quadrants and <2 quadrants or maximum diameter between 3 and 5 mm; and large perforation, >2 quadrants or maximum diameter >5 mm.
The type of perforation seen were central 57.6%, subtotal 33.3%, total 6.1%, marginal 3.0%. The sides affected were left ear 45.5%, right ear 15.2%, and both ears 39.4%. The causes found were chronic suppurative otitis media (CSOM) 90.9%, acute suppurative otitis media (ASOM) 6.1%, and trauma to the affected ear 3.0%.
The outcome may also be related to the cause, mechanism, treatment and complications associated with the injuries. Simple traumatic tympanic membrane perforation (TTMP) remains the most common type of trauma - induced otologic dysfunction.
ICD Code H72 is a non-billable code. To code a diagnosis of this type, you must use one of the five child codes of H72 that describes the diagnosis 'perforation of tympanic membrane' in more detail. H72 Perforation of tympanic membrane. NON-BILLABLE.
by trying to clean the ear with sharp instruments), explosion, loud noise or surgery (accidental creation of a rupture). Flying with a severe cold can also cause perforation due to changes in air pressure and blocked eustachian tubes resulting from the cold. This is especially true on landing.
