Elevated lipase levels can indicate a number of conditions, such as:
High lipase enzyme levels are usually accompanied by symptoms like sweating, pain in abdomen, nausea, weakness, and vomiting, etc. Some people may not exhibit any visible symptoms of elevated lipase levels.
Typical ranges for results vary, depending on the following factors:
ICD-10-CM Code for Abnormal levels of other serum enzymes R74. 8.
R74. 8 - Abnormal levels of other serum enzymes. ICD-10-CM.
8 Abnormal levels of other serum enzymes.
ICD-10-CM Code for Elevation of levels of liver transaminase levels R74. 01.
ICD-10-CM Code for Acute pancreatitis, unspecified K85. 9.

Lipase helps your body digest fats. It's normal to have a small amount of lipase in your blood. But, a high level of lipase can mean you have pancreatitis, an inflammation of the pancreas, or another type of pancreas disease. Blood tests are the most common way of measuring lipase.
Lipase is an enzyme the body uses to break down fats in food so they can be absorbed in the intestines. Lipase is produced in the pancreas, mouth, and stomach.
Code E78. 5 is the diagnosis code used for Hyperlipidemia, Unspecified, a disorder of lipoprotein metabolism other lipidemias. It is a condition with excess lipids in the blood.
ICD-10 code R79. 89 for Other specified abnormal findings of blood chemistry is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Symptoms, signs and abnormal clinical and laboratory findings, not elsewhere classified .
ICD-10 code K76. 0 for Fatty (change of) liver, not elsewhere classified is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Diseases of the digestive system .
821. Revised descriptor for ICD-10-CM diagnosis code Z77. 29.
Elevated liver enzymes often indicate inflammation or damage to cells in the liver. Inflamed or injured liver cells leak higher than normal amounts of certain chemicals, including liver enzymes, into the bloodstream, elevating liver enzymes on blood tests.
More common causes of elevated liver enzymes include:Over-the-counter pain medications, particularly acetaminophen (Tylenol, others)Certain prescription medications, including statin drugs used to control cholesterol.Drinking alcohol.Heart failure.Hepatitis A.Hepatitis B.Hepatitis C.Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease.More items...•

Transaminitis, or hypertransaminasemia, refers to unusually high levels of a family of enzymes called transaminases. Transaminitis is not a disease, but it can point to other issues that require treatment. High levels of fat or similar problems may be causing inflammation in the liver.
Elevated liver enzymes is also known as abnl liver enzymes, abnormal enzyme level finding in specimen from digestive organ and/or abdominal cavity, abnormal enzyme level in specimen from female genital organ, abnormal enzyme level in specimen from respiratory organ and thorax, abnormal enzyme level in specimens from male genital organs, abnormal enzyme levels in cerebrospinal fluid, abnormal liver enzymes, alanine aminotransferase level abnormal, alkaline phosphatase bone isoenzyme raised, alkaline phosphatase raised, cardiac enzymes abnormal, cardiac enzymes abnormal – first set, elevated alkaline phosphatase measurement, elevated amylase measurement, elevated CPK, enzyme level in serum specimen above reference range, increased creatine kinase level, lipase in serum specimen above reference range, liver enzymes abnormal, serum amylase abnormal, and serum amylase raised.
Elevated liver enzymes is an abnormal amount of the enzymes usually found in the liver. There are multiple causes of elevated liver enzymes, some of the most common are heart failure, consuming alcohol, obesity, hepatitis A, and certain drugs used to control cholesterol.
Elevated alkaline phosphatase describes the situation where the levels of alkaline phosphatase exceed the reference range. It can be associated with certain medical conditions or syndromes (e.g., hyperphosphatasia with mental retardation syndrome, HPMRS)
Inclusion Terms are a list of concepts for which a specific code is used. The list of Inclusion Terms is useful for determining the correct code in some cases, but the list is not necessarily exhaustive.

This is the official approximate match mapping between ICD9 and ICD10, as provided by the General Equivalency mapping crosswalk. This means that while there is no exact mapping between this ICD10 code R74.8 and a single ICD9 code, 790.5 is an approximate match for comparison and conversion purposes.
R74.8 is a valid billable ICD-10 diagnosis code for Abnormal levels of other serum enzymes . It is found in the 2021 version of the ICD-10 Clinical Modification (CM) and can be used in all HIPAA-covered transactions from Oct 01, 2020 - Sep 30, 2021 .
When an Excludes2 note appears under a code it is acceptable to use both the code and the excluded code together. A “code also” note instructs that two codes may be required to fully describe a condition, but this note does not provide sequencing direction. The sequencing depends on the circumstances of the encounter.
