SPD is not included in the DSM-5 or ICD-10, the most widely used diagnostic sources in healthcare.
ICD-10 code R68. 89 for Other general symptoms and signs is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Symptoms, signs and abnormal clinical and laboratory findings, not elsewhere classified .

Sensory deficit is a general medical terms that encompasses a wide arrange of symptoms which can include. difficulties with one of the main senses like touch or taste, or difficulties with multiple senses.
Sensory processing disorder (SPD) is a condition that affects how your brain processes sensory information (stimuli). Sensory information includes things you see, hear, smell, taste, or touch. SPD can affect all of your senses, or just one. SPD usually means you're overly sensitive to stimuli that other people are not.

Sensory loss that is confined to a part of a limb suggests injury to a peripheral nerve, nerve plexus, or spinal root (eg, mononeuropathy or radiculopathy). In contrast, sensory loss involving most of an extremity or the trunk suggests the presence of other disorders, that may be distinguished as follows (figure 3):
The primary sensory modalities usually are examined first. These include touch, proprioception, vibration, temperature, and pain. Abnormalities in these sensations may occur with any sensory syndrome (eg, peripheral nerve injury, radiculopathy, spinal cord syndromes, thalamic and cerebral hemispheric syndromes). A disproportionate loss of vibration sense and proprioception, compared with pain and temperature sensation, tends to occur with diseases of the dorsal columns of the spinal cord (eg, tabes dorsalis, vitamin B12 deficiency, multiple sclerosis) and also with demyelinating neuropathies and sensory neuronopathies. (See "Pathogenesis, clinical manifestations, and treatment of late syphilis" and "Etiology and clinical manifestations of vitamin B12 and folic acid deficiency".)
SENSORY EXAMINATION — The goal of the sensory examination is to "localize the lesion." This portion of the examination tends to be subjective because it relies on the patient's responses to various stimuli; thus, it is usually done following the motor examination. With the more objective data obtained from the motor examination, the examiner is often able to narrow down a differential and proceed with a more focused sensory examination, resulting in less frustration for both the patient and examiner. (See "The detailed neurologic examination in adults", section on 'Sensory examination'.)
Hypesthesia is the diminished ability to perceive pain, temperature, touch, or vibration.
The hand and arm are represented just above the region for the face and the leg is represented medially, similar to the layout of the motor homunculus.
ANATOMY OF THE SENSORY SYSTEM — Perception of a somatic sensation depends on detection of a stimulus by specialized receptors in the skin, muscle, or joints. Information from these receptors is then transmitted via peripheral nerves to the central nervous system. With the exception of the mesencephalic nucleus, whose projections carry proprioceptive information from the muscles of mastication [1], the cell bodies of the primary sensory neurons that constitute the peripheral nerves reside in ganglia outside of the central nervous system. Projections from these ganglia then enter the central nervous system to synapse with second order neurons.
Hypalgesia is the decreased sensitivity to painful stimuli.
Other symptoms and signs involving general sensations and perceptions 1 R44.8 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes. 2 Short description: Oth symptoms and signs w general sensations and perceptions 3 The 2021 edition of ICD-10-CM R44.8 became effective on October 1, 2020. 4 This is the American ICD-10-CM version of R44.8 - other international versions of ICD-10 R44.8 may differ.
The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM R44.8 became effective on October 1, 2021.
The ICD-10-CM classification system refers to “Sensory integration disorder” as an “Approximate Synonym” under the F88 code: a billable/specific code that could be utilized to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes.
This may be the reason some doctors and occupational therapists recommend using other ICD codes to identify the components of sensory processing disorder most applicable to your child instead of vague “other condition” type codes.
It is important to take note, however, that the new version of the ICD was released on June 18, 2018. It will become the official classification system used by member states commencing January 2022.
For example the Hyperesthesia code (R20.3, ICD-10-CM) may be applicable if your child experiences atypical or increased sensitivity to stimulation. Many children on the spectrum benefit from occupational therapy for tactile hypersensitivity, if this specific symptom requires invention your occupational therapist will be able to assist with the applicable ICD code.
In this case the ICD-10-CM code F82 (Specific developmental disorder of motor function) may be appropriate.
Such experts may refer to the F82 and F88 billable codes in the ICD-10-CM; these codes may specify diagnoses encompassing symptoms of sensory processing and integration disorders.
A study (Tomchek & Dunn, 2007) found that 95% of the sample of autistic children displayed some degree of sensory dysfunction. Parents and many occupational therapists agree that almost all kids on the spectrum process sensory stimuli differently to neurotypical peers.
