ICD-10 code I48 for Atrial fibrillation and flutter is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Diseases of the circulatory system .
ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code I48 I48.
The code for “atrial fibrillation with RVR” is I48. 91 Unspecified atrial fibrillation.
I48. 92 - Unspecified atrial flutter. ICD-10-CM.
What is Afib with RVR? Some cases of Afib involve atrial fibrillation with rapid ventricular response (RVR). This is when the rapid contractions of the atria make the ventricles beat too quickly. If the ventricles beat too fast, they can't receive enough blood. So they can't meet the body's need for oxygenated blood.
Atrial fibrillation (A-fib) is an irregular and often very rapid heart rhythm (arrhythmia) that can lead to blood clots in the heart. A-fib increases the risk of stroke, heart failure and other heart-related complications.
I48. 91 is used to report atrial fibrillation when no further specificity is available. I48. 2 is used to report atrial fibrillation when specified as chronic or permanent (Will be expanded 10/1/19)
Paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (PAF) constitutes approximately half of all AF cases and is thought to represent an early stage of the disease.
Conclusion: In certain patients, the occurrence of transient, simultaneous atrial fibrillation and flutter is possible.
ICD-Code I10 is a billable ICD-10 code used for healthcare diagnosis reimbursement of Essential (Primary) Hypertension.
Normally, the top chambers (atria) contract and push blood into the bottom chambers (ventricles). In atrial fibrillation, the atria beat irregularly. In atrial flutter, the atria beat regularly, but faster than usual and more often than the ventricles, so you may have four atrial beats to every one ventricular beat.
I48.0 is a valid billable ICD-10 diagnosis code for Paroxysmal atrial fibrillation . It is found in the 2021 version of the ICD-10 Clinical Modification (CM) and can be used in all HIPAA-covered transactions from Oct 01, 2020 - Sep 30, 2021 .
