427.0 - Paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia | ICD-10-CM.
ICD-10 code I47. 2 for Ventricular tachycardia is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Diseases of the circulatory system .
Atrioventricular nodal reentrant tachycardia (AVNRT) is a type of arrhythmia. A person with AVNRT experiences sudden episodes of an abnormally fast heartbeat. Many people with AVNRT don't require treatment, as simple strategies may help prevent and control episodes.
Atrioventricular nodal reentrant tachycardia (AVNRT) is a regular supraventricular tachycardia (SVT) that results from the formation of a reentry circuit confined to the AV node and perinodal atrial tissue. Because of its abrupt onset and termination, AVNRT is categorized as a paroxysmal SVT (PSVT).

What is paroxysmal atrial tachycardia? Paroxysmal atrial tachycardia is a type of arrhythmia, or irregular heartbeat. Paroxysmal means that the episode of arrhythmia begins and ends abruptly. Atrial means that arrhythmia starts in the upper chambers of the heart (atria).
Narrow QRS complex tachycardia (NCT) represents an umbrella term for any rapid cardiac rhythm greater than 100 beats per minute (bpm) with a QRS duration of less than 120 milliseconds (ms).
ICD-10 | Ventricular tachycardia (I47. 2)
Since there is no dx for WCT and since it usually caused by ventricular tachycardia we often use 427.0. But to be on the safe side 785.0 could work.
A wide complex tachycardia (WCT) is simple enough to define: a cardiac rhythm with a rate >100 beats per minute and a QRS width >120 milliseconds (ms).
No specific treatment indicated. Management is directed at any underlying heart condition. Implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) placement may be used for selected patients who have additional risk factors such as structural heart disease.
Chronic recurrent ventricular tachycardia is always a serious. arrhythmia since it may deteriorate into fatal ventricular. fibrillation. Chronic recurrent ventricular tachycardia at a. rate of 250 beats/minute may cause syncope, but at a rate of 100-150 may not cause any symptoms.
Answer: Yes, I47. 2 (Ventricular tachycardia) is appropriate for nonsustained ventricular tachycardia.
ICD-10 code I50. 22 for Chronic systolic (congestive) heart failure is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Diseases of the circulatory system .

These includes attacks of palpitations, dizziness and syncope, dyspnea, chest pain as well as anxiety. These attacks start and terminate abruptly (i.e. paroxysmal).
Orthodromic tachycardias typically occur at rates of l50-250 beats per minute. A retrograde P wave may be seen at the end of the QRS complex or in the early part of the ST segment. Typically, the onset of orthodromic tachycardia is abrupt, initiated by a premature atrial or ventricular complex.
Initial therapy of acute episodes of narrow-complex tachycardias, particularly AVRT includes vagal maneuvers (e.g. carotid massage, Valsalva maneuver) and, if unsuccessful, bolus administration of short-acting agents that slow or block AV nodal conduction, such as adenosine, verapamil, or diltiazem.
The second most common form of supraventricular tachycardia (SVT) uses a second connection between the upper and lower heart chambers, a second "staircase".

I47.1 is a billable ICD code used to specify a diagnosis of supraventricular tachycardia. A 'billable code' is detailed enough to be used to specify a medical diagnosis.
Atrioventricular reentrant tachycardia, atrioventricular reciprocating tachycardia or AVRT, is a supraventricular tachycardia (SVT) most commonly associated with Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome, in which an accessory pathway allows electrical signal from the ventricles to enter the atria and cause premature contraction and repeat stimulation of the atrioventricular node.
Despite the name, the arrhythmia commonly referred to as permanent junctional reciprocating tachycardia is a variant of orthodromic reciprocating tachycardia utilizing a decremental, slowly conducting unidirectional retrograde accessory pathway. In its classic form, the arrhythmia displays several features, including incessant behavior with repeated, self-limited runs of tachycardia with long RP interval which terminate due to VA block; after one or more sinus beats, the arrhythmia spontaneously reinitiates. However, the term permanent junctional reciprocating tachycardia is sometimes used in a broader sense to describe any variant of orthodromic reciprocating tachycardia characterized by a longer than usual VA time such that no sites with VA fusion will be identifiable. While the diagnostic maneuvers to distinguish permanent junctional reciprocating tachycardia from variants of AV node reentry (as well as from atrial tachycardia) are similar to that for characterizing orthodromic reciprocating tachycardia utilizing a septal accessory pathway, the response to ventricular pacing maneuvers may be unique due to the pathway's decremental properties (Fig. 3) ( Bardy et al., 1985 ).
Once the diagnosis of permanent junctional reciprocating tachycardia is established, mapping is directed toward the site of earliest atrial activation. Although most commonly the insertion will be septal in location, left-sided and even occasionally right-sided pathways fitting within the spectrum of permanent junctional reciprocating tachycardia will be encountered. Mapping should be performed only during tachycardia to distinguish pathway conduction from retrograde conduction over the AV node. Since the VA time may vary considerably during tachycardia, the site of earliest activation should be measured against a fixed atrial reference site. In some cases, a small electrogram from the pathway itself may be recorded between the ventricular component and the atrial component of the signal at the site of successful ablation. As described above, termination of tachycardia could result in catheter dislodgement, but due to the typically slower rates of this tachycardia, this may be less of a problem than with typical orthodromic reciprocating tachycardia. As discussed above, the factors weighing into the choice of cryoablation versus radiofrequency energy should be considered for each case.
Permanent junctional reciprocating tachycardia (PJRT) is a narrow-complex often incessant tachycardia with rates from 120 to 250 beats per minute, characterized by sudden onset and termination, negative P waves in leads II, III, and aVF, and a long R-P interval (Fig. 8-8 ). 21 It must be discriminated from atypical AVNRT and from some forms of atrial ectopic tachycardia. This arrhythmia is an unusual variant form of orthodromic AVRT. It is the most common form of incessant tachycardia in children but is uncommon in neonates and adults. When chronic, it may result in left ventricular dilatation and failure. The underlying mechanism is reentry with retrograde conduction over a slowly conducting accessory pathway most commonly located in proximity to the ostium of the coronary sinus. Digoxin, beta-blockers, and type IA antiarrhythmics are generally ineffective in terminating PJRT. Type IC agents and type III agents often provide partial but frequently incomplete suppression of tachycardia. Radiofrequency catheter ablation offers the potential for a definitive cure with a low risk of inadvertent high-grade AV block. 109
Unrecognized reinitiation may occur following medical termination, pace termination, or cardioversion. In some tachycardias (as in PJRT or other incessant forms of SVT), reinitiation is expected, but it also may occur inadvertently as the result of continued pacing beyond the point of termination or may be facilitated by sinus pauses, junctional beats, or ectopic beats following adenosine or cardioversion. Again, measures to decrease the factors favoring reinitiation (e.g., shorter pacing bursts, antibradycardia pacing, and coadministration of an antiarrhythmic drug) should be used rather than further increases in energy or dose of the terminating therapy. With frequent terminations and reinitiations of tachycardia, multiple repeated cardioversions are likely ineffective and may cause myocardial injury.
