RSV codes: RSV‐specific ICD‐10 codes J12. 1, J20. 5, J21.
ICD-10 code J12. 1 for Respiratory syncytial virus pneumonia is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Diseases of the respiratory system .
Note that B97. 4 cannot be a main ICU diagnosis but is a specification of a different diagnostic code (e.g. may be the combination Other apnea in newborn P28.
A positive test means the person has antibodies to RSV in their blood. These antibodies may be present because: A positive test in people older than infants means there is a current or past infection with RSV. Most adults and older children have had an RSV infection.
9: Fever, unspecified.
ICD-10 code: J06. 9 Acute upper respiratory infection, unspecified.
Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is a viral organism that can cause upper and lower respiratory tract infections. It commonly causes bronchiolitis (inflammation of the lower airways) and pneumonia in children and infants. In the United States, RSV is more common during the winter and spring months.
ICD-10 code R06. 03 for Acute respiratory distress is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Symptoms, signs and abnormal clinical and laboratory findings, not elsewhere classified .
SymptomsRunny nose.Decrease in appetite.Coughing.Sneezing.Fever.Wheezing.
RSV A was detectable by RT-PCR as long as 30 days maximum with a mean of 12.8 days, while RSV B tested positive in RT-PCR as long as 10 days with a mean of 5.8 days (Fig.
RSV is an enveloped virus that belongs to the genus Pneumovirus, family Paramyxoviridae. It is a negative sense, single stranded RNA virus consisting of 11 proteins encoded by a 15.2-kb RSV genome.
Because RSV symptoms resemble those of the common cold (runny nose, sore throat, mild headache, cough, and sometimes a fever), parents and other adults may not realize they are infected with the virus but can still be contagious.
Definition: The Principal/Primary Diagnosis is the condition established after study to be chiefly responsible for occasioning the admission of the patient to the hospital for care.
The primary diagnosis should be listed first. Other additional codes for any coexisting conditions are to be then listed. It should be remembered that, your diagnosis—the disorder you are evaluating and/or treating—is considered the primary diagnosis and should be listed first on the claim form.
Acute myocardial infarction (the STEMI) is not the principal diagnosis because it was not the condition that caused the admission. Secondary diagnoses are “conditions that coexist at the time of admission, that develop subsequently, or that affect the treatment received and/or length of stay.
In the inpatient setting, the primary diagnosis describes the diagnosis that was the most serious and/or resource-intensive during the hospitalization or the inpatient encounter. Typically, the primary diagnosis and the principal diagnosis are the same diagnosis, but this is not necessarily always so.
The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM J12.1 became effective on October 1, 2021.
J11.82 Influenza due to unidentified influenza virus with myocarditis. J11.83 Influenza due to unidentified influenza virus with otitis media. J11.89 Influenza due to unidentified influenza virus with other manifestations. J12 Viral pneumonia, not elsewhere classified.
Background: Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is the most common cause of acute lower respiratory tract infection (ALRI) in young children. ICD-10-based syndromic surveillance can transmit data rapidly in a standardized way.
The use of RSV-specific ICD-10 codes may be a useful indicator to describe RSV epidemiology. However, RSV-specific ICD-10 codes underestimate the number of actual RSV infections. This can be overcome by combining RSV-specific and general ALRI ICD-10 codes. Further investigations are required to vali …
A positive result may occur in the absence of viable virus. In the event of a negative result, infection due to RSV cannot be ruled out because the antigen present may be below the detection limit of the test.
Nasopharyngeal wash or aspirate using routine collection and transport procedure. Nasal swabs are not considered as sensitive for RSV detection. Avoid using collection containers with preservatives or transport that may contain interfering substances. Do not use calcium alginate swabs.
Human respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is a syncytial virus that causes respiratory tract infections. It is a major cause of lower respiratory tract infections and hospital visits during infancy and childhood.

This is the official approximate match mapping between ICD9 and ICD10, as provided by the General Equivalency mapping crosswalk. This means that while there is no exact mapping between this ICD10 code B97.4 and a single ICD9 code, 079.6 is an approximate match for comparison and conversion purposes.
