Precipitous drop in hematocrit. R71.0 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 R71.0 became effective on October 1, 2018. This is the American ICD-10-CM version of R71.0 - other international versions of ICD-10 R71.0 may differ.

Your saying if the patient is admitted with any dx of anemia and has a hct drop and your query does not get answered for ABLA you would not code drop in hct? I think the rule is that if the provider documents anemia of any type, the coding rules don't allow you to document a "precipitous drop in hematocrit".
There is another codeable condition called precipitous drop in hematocrit, R71. 0. This term can indicate several situations. In the first scenario, there is acute blood loss, but the patient never falls into anemic territory; therefore, acute blood loss anemia is not the appropriate term.

Code D64. 9 is the diagnosis code used for Anemia, Unspecified, it falls under the category of diseases of the blood and blood-forming organs and certain disorders involving the immune mechanism. Anemia specifically, is a condition in which the number of red blood cells is below normal.
Hemoglobin abnormalities are the group of blood disorders that affect the normal functioning of the hemoglobin in the red blood cells. These are genetic disorders that results in the altered size and shape of the red blood cells, thereby decreasing the oxygen-carrying capacity of the blood.
Not getting enough iron in your diet is the most common cause of low hemoglobin. Symptoms of low hemoglobin include headaches, fatigue, and pale skin. Treatments for low hemoglobin include iron supplements, iron therapy, and surgery. Adding more iron-rich foods to your diet is also important.
In this study, 71 g of haemoglobin mass loss and 560 mL of blood volume loss were considered to be equivalent since they respectively correspond to approximately 10% of the total haemoglobin mass and 10% of the total blood volume of an average non-anaemic adult26.
Anisocytosis is a medical term meaning that a patient's red blood cells are of unequal size. This is commonly found in anemia and other blood conditions. False diagnostic flagging may be triggered by an elevated WBC count, agglutinated RBCs, RBC fragments, giant platelets or platelet clumps.
Inclusion Terms are a list of concepts for which a specific code is used. The list of Inclusion Terms is useful for determining the correct code in some cases, but the list is not necessarily exhaustive.

This is the official exact match mapping between ICD9 and ICD10, as provided by the General Equivalency mapping crosswalk. This means that in all cases where the ICD9 code 790.01 was previously used, R71.0 is the appropriate modern ICD10 code.
A disease characterized by compensated hemolysis with a normal hemoglobin level or a mild to moderate anemia. There may be intermittent abdominal discomfort, splenomegaly, and slight jaundice. A group of inherited disorders characterized by structural alterations within the hemoglobin molecule.
It means "not coded here". A type 1 excludes note indicates that the code excluded should never be used at the same time as D58.2. A type 1 excludes note is for used for when two conditions cannot occur together, such as a congenital form versus an acquired form of the same condition. familial polycythemia (.
There is another codeable condition called precipitous drop in hematocrit, R71.0. This term can indicate several situations. In the first scenario, there is acute blood loss, but the patient never falls into anemic territory; therefore, acute blood loss anemia is not the appropriate term.
For men, hemoglobin is usually somewhere between 13.5 and 17.5 g/dL, and for women, 12.0 to 15.5 g/dL.
The treatment of blood loss is determined by the rapidity by which the anemia develops, the degree of blood loss, whether symptoms have arisen, and whether there are high-risk clinical circumstances rendering the patient more vulnerable to harm.
Hemoglobin A is the protein in red blood cells responsible for transporting oxygen. It is a complicated molecule composed of four folded subunits, two alpha and two beta chains, each with an incorporated heme group composed of an organic ring-like compound called porphyrin oriented around a central iron atom.
Since hematocrit is volume-dependent, if the patient receives significant fluid resuscitation, it can dilute the blood and lower the red blood cell volume. If the patient’s kidney function is normal, passage of time will allow for elimination of excess fluid and equilibration.
It will trigger a quality measure PSI regarding hemorrhage. There is no absolute value of level of hemoglobin drop that defines ABLA. It occurs as a result of hemorrhage. If a blood transfusion is necessary due to hemorrhage, acute blood loss anemia is likely present and should be documented.
