The ICD code D57 is used to code Anemia. Anemia, also spelt anaemia, is usually defined as a decrease in the amount of red blood cells (RBCs) or hemoglobin in the blood. It can also be defined as a lowered ability of the blood to carry oxygen.
This means that while there is no exact mapping between this ICD10 code D57.1 and a single ICD9 code, 282.61 is an approximate match for comparison and conversion purposes.
Anemia, also spelt anaemia, is usually defined as a decrease in the amount of red blood cells (RBCs) or hemoglobin in the blood. It can also be defined as a lowered ability of the blood to carry oxygen.
D57.1 is a billable diagnosis code used to specify a medical diagnosis of sickle-cell disease without crisis. The code D57.1 is valid during the fiscal year 2021 from October 01, 2020 through September 30, 2021 for the submission of HIPAA-covered transactions.#N#The ICD-10-CM code D57.1 might also be used to specify conditions or terms like arthropathy associated with a hematological disorder, arthropathy secondary to hemoglobinopathy, disorder of myocardium due to sickle cell hemoglobinopathy, double heterozygous sickling disorder, focal segmental glomerulosclerosis , focal segmental glomerulosclerosis due to sickle cell disease, etc.
People with the disease are born with two sickle cell genes, one from each parent. If you are born with one sickle cell gene, it's called sickle cell trait . People with sickle cell trait are generally healthy, but they can pass the defective gene on to their children.
Sickle cell test (Medical Encyclopedia) Sickle cell disease Sickle cell disease is a group of disorders that affects hemoglobin, the molecule in red blood cells that delivers oxygen to cells throughout the body.
When red blood cells sickle, they break down prematurely, which can lead to anemia. Anemia can cause shortness of breath, fatigue, and delayed growth and development in children. The rapid breakdown of red blood cells may also cause yellowing of the eyes and skin, which are signs of jaundice.
The only cure for SCD is bone marrow or stem cell transplantation. Because these transplants are risky and can have serious side effects, they are usually only used in children with severe SCD. For the transplant to work, the bone marrow must be a close match. Usually, the best donor is a brother or sister.
People with the disease are born with two sickle cell genes, one from each parent. If you only have one sickle cell gene, it's called sickle cell trait. About 1 in 12 african americans has sickle cell trait. A blood test can show if you have the trait or anemia.

A blood disorder characterized by the appearance of sickle-shaped red blood cells and anemia. A disease characterized by chronic hemolytic anemia, episodic painful crises, and pathologic involvement of many organs. It is the clinical expression of homozygosity for hemoglobin s.
Sickle cell anemia is caused by a mutation (change) in one of the genes for hemoglobin (the substance inside red blood cells that binds to oxygen and carries it from the lungs to the tissues). It is most common in people of west and central african descent.
The sickle cells also get stuck in blood vessels, blocking blood flow. This can cause pain and organ damage. A genetic problem causes sickle cell anemia. People with the disease are born with two sickle cell genes, one from each parent. If you only have one sickle cell gene, it's called sickle cell trait.
The code title indicates that it is a manifestation code. "In diseases classified elsewhere" codes are never permitted to be used as first listed or principle diagnosis codes. They must be used in conjunction with an underlying condition code and they must be listed following the underlying condition.
It means "not coded here". A type 1 excludes note indicates that the code excluded should never be used at the same time as D57. 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. other hemoglobinopathies (.
