Rheumatic heart disease is a condition in which the heart valves have been permanently damaged by rheumatic fever. Rheumatic fever is an inflammatory disease that can affect many connective tissues, especially in the heart. Untreated or under-treated strep infections put a person at increased risk.

Endocarditis is the inflammation of the inner layer of the heart which is a common complication of Acute Rheumatic Fever. Commonly occurring in developing countries, Acute Rheumatic Endocarditis is treated with surgery to repair or replace heart valves.

How you get rheumatic fever. Rheumatic fever may develop if strep throat or scarlet fever infections are not treated properly or after strep skin infections (impetigo). Bacteria called group A Streptococcus (group A strep) cause these infections.
ICD-10-CM I35. 9 is grouped within Diagnostic Related Group(s) (MS-DRG v39.0): 306 Cardiac congenital and valvular disorders with mcc. 307 Cardiac congenital and valvular disorders without mcc.
Rheumatic fever is an inflammatory disorder caused by a Group A strep throat infection. It affects the connective tissue of the body, causing temporary, painful arthritis and other symptoms. In some cases rheumatic fever causes long-term damage to the heart and its valves. This is called rheumatic heart disease.
There is no specific test for rheumatic heart disease. The first step will be to establish if you have had a strep infection. A throat culture and/or a blood test might be able to find strep antibodies if the infection was recent.
Complications include heart failure, which means the heart is unable to pump blood effectively. The strain causes the heart to enlarge. Other complications of RHD include infection of damaged heart valves (infective endocarditis) and stroke due to clots forming in the enlarged heart or on damaged valves.
Patients with mild RHD at diagnosis were the most stable, with 64% remaining mild after 10 years; however, 11.4% progressed to severe RHD and half of these required surgery.
Rheumatic heart disease is a chronic, disabling and sometimes fatal disease that is entirely preventable.
Inflammation caused by rheumatic fever can last a few weeks to several months. For some people, the inflammation causes long-term complications. One complication of rheumatic fever is permanent damage to the heart (rheumatic heart disease).
Healthcare providers may also call it acute rheumatic fever. It happens when the body's immune system overreacts to a strep throat or scarlet fever infection that hasn't been fully treated. Rheumatic fever causes your body's immune system to attack its own tissues, causing inflammation (swelling).
Pericarditis is an inflammation of the pericardium (the fibrous sac surrounding the heart). A characteristic chest pain is often present. Other symptoms of pericarditis may include dry cough, fever, fatigue, and anxiety.
Billable codes are sufficient justification for admission to an acute care hospital when used a principal diagnosis.
I09.2 is a valid billable ICD-10 diagnosis code for Chronic rheumatic pericarditis . 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 .
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.
A type 1 Excludes note is a pure excludes. It means 'NOT CODED HERE!' An Excludes1 note indicates that the code excluded should never be used at the same time as the code above the Excludes1 note. An Excludes1 is used when two conditions cannot occur together, such as a congenital form versus an acquired form of the same condition.
