Systemic primary carnitine deficiency (CDSP) is a rare metabolic disorder in which the body cannot properly process fats into energy. Carnitine functions to carry fatty acids obtained through diet to the energy centers in muscle cells (mitochondria).
Mutations in the SLC22A5 gene cause primary carnitine deficiency. This gene provides instructions for making a protein called OCTN2 that transports carnitine into cells. Cells need carnitine to bring certain types of fats (fatty acids) into mitochondria , which are the energy-producing centers within cells.
What causes carnitine deficiency? Carnitine deficiency may occur in response to a genetic mutation (gene defect) in the protein responsible for bringing carnitine into the cell (primary carnitine deficiency), or it may occur secondary to other metabolic diseases (secondary carnitine deficiency).
Dependence on respirator [ventilator] status Z99. 11 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes.
Can Z codes be listed as primary codes? Yes; they can be sequenced as primary and secondary codes.
After DEX assigns a Z-Code to a lab for a specific test, the DEX team will review the test application and will assign a CPT code to the test. Receiving a Z-Code for a test will occur within approximately 2 weeks from adding your test into the DEX system.
What foods provide carnitine? Animal products like meat, fish, poultry, and milk are the best sources. In general, the redder the meat, the higher its carnitine content. Dairy products contain carnitine primarily in the whey fraction [1,3,5].
Meat, poultry, fish, and dairy products are the richest sources of L-carnitine, while fruit, vegetables, and grains contain relatively little L-carnitine.
Carnitine helps the body break down fatty acids and turn them into energy to power the cells. L-carnitine is a conditionally essential nutrient, meaning that the body can generally make enough of it, but, in some cases, a person may have to get the compound from food or oral supplements if they cannot make enough.
Inborn errors of amino acid metabolism are metabolic disorders which impair the synthesis and degradation of amino acids.

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 277.81 was previously used, E71.41 is the appropriate modern ICD10 code.
