ICD-10-PCS (Procedure Codes) has been developed as a replacement for Volume 3 of the ICD-9-CM. ICD-10-PCS has a 7 character alpha-numeric code structure that provides a unique code for all substantially different procedures, and allows new procedures to be incorporated as new codes. All procedures currently performed can be specified in ICD-10-PCS.
Placement section codes represent procedures for putting an externally placed device in or on a body region for the purpose of protection, immobilization, stretching, compression or packing. Placement procedure codes have a first character value of “2”. The second character value for body system is either anatomical regions or anatomical orifices.
ICD-10-PCS Sections. The 1st character of the code identifies the section. Sections relate to the type of procedure. For example, a chest x-ray is an imaging procedure and a breast biopsy is a medical and surgical procedure.
If multiple coronary artery sites are bypassed, a separate procedure is coded for each coronary artery site that uses a different device and/or qualifier. ICD-10-PCS Guideline B3.9. If an autograft is obtained from a different body part in order to complete the objective of the procedure, a separate procedure is coded. ICD-10-PCS Guideline B4.4.
An IABP allows blood to flow more easily into your coronary arteries. It also helps your heart pump more blood with each contraction. The balloon is inserted into your aorta. The aorta is the very large artery leaving your heart. In many cases, this procedure is done through a small cut on the inside of your upper leg.

CPRCPT states 92950 is intended to describe CPR to restore and maintain the patient's respiration and circulation after cessation of heartbeat and breathing.
Cardiac output is measured in liters per minute and is equal to the amount of blood ejected at each heartbeat (stroke volume in liters per beat) multiplied by the number of beats per minute. As a result, heart rate is a powerful determinant of cardiac performance.

Abstract. Treatment with the intraaortic balloon pump (IABP) is the most common form of mechanical support for the failing heart. Augmentation of diastolic pressure during balloon inflation contributes to the coronary circulation and the presystolic deflation of the balloon reduces the resistance to systolic output.
An intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP) is a device that helps your heart pump more blood. You may need it if your heart is unable to pump enough blood for your body. The IABP consists of a thin, flexible tube called a catheter. Attached to the tip of the catheter is a long balloon.
IABP inflates at the onset of diastole, thereby increasing diastolic pressure and deflates just before systole, thus reducing LV afterload. The magnitude of these effects depends upon: Balloon volume: the amount of blood displaced is proportional to the volume of the balloon.

ICD-10-PCS has a 7 character alpha-numeric code structure that provides a unique code for all substantially different procedures, and allows new procedures to be incorporated as new codes. All procedures currently performed can be specified in ICD-10-PCS.
Placement section codes represent procedures for putting an externally placed device in or on a body region for the purpose of protection, immobilization, stretching, compression or packing. Placement procedure codes have a first character value of “2”.
6 - Extracorporeal or Systemic Therapies. In extracorporeal therapy, equipment outside the body is used for a therapeutic purpose that does not involve the assistance or performance of a physiological function. Extracorporeal therapy procedure codes have a first character value of “6”.
Physical rehabilitation section codes represent procedures including physical therapy, occupational therapy and speech-language pathology. Osteopathic procedures and chiropractic procedures are in sections 7 and 9 respectively. Physical rehabilitation and diagnostic audiology procedure codes have a first character value of “F”. The second character specifies the section qualifier Rehabilitation or Diagnostic Audiology. The third character specifies the root type.
Extracorporeal assistance and performance procedure codes have a first character value of “5”. The second character value for body system is physiological systems.
Measurement and monitoring procedure codes have a first character value of “4”. The second character value for body system is either physiological systems or physiological devices.
The Medical and Surgical section codes represent the vast majority of procedures reported in an inpatient setting. Medical and surgical procedure codes have a first character value of "0". The 2nd character indicates the general body system (e.g., gastrointestinal).
The ICD-10 Procedure Coding System (ICD-10-PCS) is a catalog of procedural codes used by medical professionals for hospital inpatient healthcare settings. The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) maintain the catalog in the U.S. releasing yearly updates. These 2021 ICD-10-PCS codes are to be used for discharges occurring from October 1, 2020 through September 30, 2021.
Each ICD-10-PCS code has a structure of seven alphanumeric characters and contains no decimals . The first character defines the major "section". Depending on the "section" the second through seventh characters mean different things.
5A02210 is a billable procedure code used to specify the performance of assistance with cardiac output using balloon pump, continuous. The code is valid for the year 2021 for the submission of HIPAA-covered transactions.
The procedure code 5A02210 is in the extracorporeal or systemic assistance and performance section and is part of the physiological systems body system, classified under the assistance operation. The applicable bodysystem is cardiac.
