The ICD-10-CM is a catalog of diagnosis codes used by medical professionals for medical coding and reporting in health care settings. The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) maintain the catalog in the U.S. releasing yearly updates.
ICD-10-CM assumes a causal relationship and this is coded as hypertensive heart disease with CHF and an additional code for the specific type of heart failure. In this case, the PDX of hypertensive heart disease with CHF (I11.0) is reported as the PDX followed by the code for the heart failure (I50.9) Under the Category I50 in the ICD-10-CM ...
LFTs to check for levels of AST and ALT which will be significantly increased in such cases. The above two tests along with the symptoms experienced by the patient and presence of hypotension is good enough to definitively diagnose the Ischemic Hepatitis or Shock Liver.
Shock liver also referred as “ischemic hepatitis,” occurs mainly because of reduction in systemic blood flow in the liver. This condition is called “hepatocytes hypo-perfusion”, which causes liver injury. It is as a result of hemodynamic instability and reduced blood flow as the blood is not able to pass smoothly through the hepatic ...

ICD-10-CM Code for Hypovolemic shock R57. 1.
Hypovolemic shock occurs as a result of either blood loss or extracellular fluid loss. Hemorrhagic shock is hypovolemic shock from blood loss. Traumatic injury is by far the most common cause of hemorrhagic shock.
Hemorrhagic shock is a form of hypovolemic shock in which severe blood loss leads to inadequate oxygen delivery at the cellular level. If hemorrhage continues unchecked, death quickly follows.

Due to the necrosis that occurs from lack of blood supply, this is where we would start, resulting in the code K72.00, acute and subacute hepatic failure without coma, an MCC. The fifth digit indicates with or without coma.
Shock liver, also known as ischemic hepatitis, is used to describe a syndrome that occurs after a period of significant hypovolemia and/or hypotension. Perfusion to the liver is impaired, resulting in damage to the liver cells, and this is reflected in rapid elevation of transaminases. Other elevated lab values may be LDH, serum creatinine, BUN, ...
The liver may be enlarged and tender, other symptoms that tend to reflect the underlying cause. Jaundice may be present, but it is rare and usually trans ient. Treatment is aimed at the underlying cause of the ischemia, and patients usually recover.
The shocking fact is that acute liver necrosis is often overlooked and underdiagnosed. The purpose of this article is to make the clinical documentation improvement (CDI) specialist aware of this potential diagnosis, signs and symptoms, and possible treatment.
