Can you use a Z code for out of hospital cardiac arrest?

The ICD code I490 is used to code Ventricular fibrillation. Ventricular fibrillation (V-fib or VF) is a condition in which there is uncoordinated contraction of the cardiac muscle of the ventricles in the heart, making them quiver rather than contract properly. Ventricular fibrillation is the most commonly identified arrhythmia in cardiac arrest patients.

What is cardiac arrest?

The sudden cessation of cardiac activity so that the victim subject/patient becomes unresponsive, without normal breathing and no signs of circulation. Cardiac arrest may be reversed by cpr, and/or defibrillation, cardioversion or cardiac pacing.

What is the most common arrhythmia in cardiac arrest?

Ventricular fibrillation is the most commonly identified arrhythmia in cardiac arrest patients. While there is some activity, the lay person is usually unable to detect it by palpating (feeling) the major pulse points of the carotid and femoral arteries. Such an arrhythmia is only confirmed by electrocardiography.

Can ventricular fibrillation be confirmed by electrocardiography?

Such an arrhythmia is only confirmed by electrocardiography. Ventricular fibrillation is a medical emergency that requires prompt Advanced Life Support interventions. If this arrhythmia continues for more than a few seconds, it will likely degenerate further into asystole ("flatline").

What is the I46.8 code?

If the cardiac arrest is due to “other” underlying condition (I46.8), the code first note is for the underlying condition, and we still have a code (I46.9) cardiac arrest, cause unspecified. There is also an Excludes 1 note for ventricular tachycardia, which states that if the documentation provides specificity regarding the type of tachycardia, ...

What is cardiac arrest?

Cardiac arrest is when the patient’s heart stops. It is the abrupt loss of heart function due to a disruption in the heart’s electrical system. The heart function or pumping totally stops. Hence the name “arrested” or stopped. Death can result quickly if CPR and defibrillator is not used to restore the heart rhythm.

Is there an excludes note for cardiogenic shock?

There simply would not be a need for an excludes note. However the fact that there is now an Excludes2 note, and cardiogenic shock is a symptom code, it is unclear if the CDC did this to allow both to be reported when they are related to the same cause. My thought is they would not be reported together if the cardiogenic shock is documented as ...

Does HIA resubmit cardiac arrest cases?

For the record, HIA is going to resubmit a case to see if both cardiogenic shock and cardiac arrest are both coded or not when documented.

What is the code for cardiac arrest?

Code 427.5, Cardiac arrest, may be used as a secondary code in the following instances:#N#The patient arrives in the hospital’s emergency service unit in a state of cardiac arrest and is resuscitated (and admitted) with the condition prompting the cardiac arrest known, such as ventricular tachycardia or trauma. The condition causing the cardiac arrest is sequenced first followed by code 427.5, Cardiac arrest.#N#When cardiac arrest occurs during the course of hospitalization and the patient is resuscitated, code 427.5 may be used as a secondary code except as outlined in the exclusion note under category 427. 1 The patient arrives in the hospital’s emergency service unit in a state of cardiac arrest and is resuscitated (and admitted) with the condition prompting the cardiac arrest known, such as ventricular tachycardia or trauma. The condition causing the cardiac arrest is sequenced first followed by code 427.5, Cardiac arrest. 2 When cardiac arrest occurs during the course of hospitalization and the patient is resuscitated, code 427.5 may be used as a secondary code except as outlined in the exclusion note under category 427.

When is 427.5 used as a secondary code?

When cardiac arrest occurs during the course of hospitalization and the patient is resuscitated, code 427.5 may be used as a secondary code except as outlined in the exclusion note under category 427.

When do you not assign 427.5?

When the physician records cardiac arrest to indicate an inpatient death, do not assign code 427.5 when the underlying cause or contributing cause of death is known since the Uniform Hospital Discharge Data Set (UHDDS) has a separate item for reporting deaths occurring during an inpatient stay.

Is Z code appropriate for sudden cardiac arrest?

If the patient is freshly resuscitated and brought to the hospital, I don’t think the Z code would be appropriate, as the evaluation and care of the prehospital arrest is still in process. However, during subsequent admissions (or office visits, for that matter), the Z code would be entirely appropriate for use, as the acute episode of cardiac arrest precipitating the index admission to the hospital is resolved.
