Cardiac catheterization as the cause of abnormal reaction of the patient, or of later complication, without mention of misadventure at the time of the procedure. Y84.0 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes. The 2019 edition of ICD-10-CM Y84.0 became effective on October 1, 2018.
These procedures include:
Possible risks of cardiac catheterization are: Damage to the artery, heart or the area where the catheter was inserted If you are pregnant or planning to become pregnant, tell your doctor before having a cardiac catheterization. If your doctor recommended a cardiac catheterization, you'll need to follow some steps to prepare for the procedure.
The risks: as with most cardiovascular procedures, cardiac catheterization entails some risks. However, major complications are rare. The risks of heart catheterization are: hematoma; Bleed; Heart attack; Cerebrovascular accident; Damage to the artery where the catheter is inserted, which may require extra attention (pseudoaneurysm)
Cardiac catheterization is usually very safe, though some people may feel discomfort having to lie down for the procedure. While risks depend on your circumstances (and should be discussed with your doctor), potential complications include: Nausea, itching, or hives from any contrast dye (and more uncommonly, an allergic reaction or kidney damage)
0 for Cardiac catheterization as the cause of abnormal reaction of the patient, or of later complication, without mention of misadventure at the time of the procedure is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Complications of medical and surgical care .
Use CPT code 93541 or other appropriate right heart catheterization code (93543, 93456, 93457, 93460 or 93461) when right heart catheterization is done in a cardiac catheterization laboratory or in an interventional radiology laboratory and the procedure is done as part of a formal cardiac catheterization study.
In cardiac catheterization (often called cardiac cath), your doctor puts a very small, flexible, hollow tube (called a catheter) into a blood vessel in the groin, arm, or neck. Then he or she threads it through the blood vessel into the aorta and into the heart. Once the catheter is in place, several tests may be done.
CPT Description 93453 Combined right and left heart catheterization including intraprocedural injection(s) for left ventriculography, imaging supervision and interpretation, when performed 93452; 93454-93461 Various descriptions – see Page 2.
CPT® Code 93459 in section: Catheter placement in coronary artery(s) for coronary angiography, including intraprocedural injection(s) for coronary angiography.
The Current Procedural Terminology (CPT®) code 99152 as maintained by American Medical Association, is a medical procedural code under the range - Moderate (Conscious) Sedation.
Overall, cardiac catheterization is considered low risk, and very few people have any serious problems. The risk is higher for people who have a serious heart condition or kidney disease. It's important to talk with your doctor to ensure you understand the potential risks.
Complete recovery takes a week or less. Keep the area where the catheter was inserted dry for 24 to 48 hours. If the catheter was inserted into your arm, recovery is often faster.
Cardiac catheterization is not considered a surgical procedure because your provider won't make a large incision. Also, the recovery time is much shorter than that of surgery. In some cases, your provider may recommend surgery afterward, depending on the results of your procedure.
4A023NZLeft Cardiac Catheterization with PTCA The ICD-10-PCS code assignment for this case example is: 4A023NZ, Catheterization, Heart.
Diagnostic Cardiac catheterization is a procedure that involves insertion of a thin flexible tube (catheter) into the right or left side of the heart, usually through the groin or arm.
CPT® 36620 in section: Arterial catheterization or cannulation for sampling, monitoring or transfusion (separate procedure)
Left heart catheterization codes 93452–93453 and 93458–93461 include intraprocedural injections for left ventricular or left atrial angiography, and imaging S&I, when performed.
This is done by injecting special fluid (called dye or contrast) through the catheter into a blood vessel or a chamber of the heart. Similar Asks.

Abstract: Cardiac catheterization is the introduction and positioning of a catheter in the heart to assess cardiac function and structure, for diagnosis, treatment planning or to assess therapy.
