E87.2 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes. The 2021 edition of ICD-10-CM E87.2 became effective on October 1, 2020. ... Metabolic acidosis characterized by the accumulation of lactate in the body. It is caused by tissue hypoxia.
This is the American ICD-10-CM version of N25.89 - other international versions of ICD-10 N25.89 may differ. A group of genetic disorders of the kidney tubules characterized by the accumulation of metabolically produced acids with elevated plasma chloride, hyperchloremic metabolic acidosis.
High anion gap metabolic acidosis is a form of metabolic acidosis characterized by a high anion gap (a medical value based on the concentrations of ions in a patient's serum). An anion gap is usually considered to be high if it is over 12 mEq/L. High anion gap metabolic acidosis is caused generally by acid produced...
The most common causes of high anion gap metabolic acidosis are: ketoacidosis, lactic acidosis, kidney failure, and toxic ingestions. Ketoacidosis can occur as a complication of diabetes mellitus (diabetic ketoacidosis), but can occur due to other disorders, such as chronic alcoholism and malnutrition.
ICD-10 code Z91. 81 for History of falling is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Factors influencing health status and contact with health services .
It can also occur when the kidneys cannot remove enough acid from the body. There are several types of metabolic acidosis: Diabetic acidosis (also called diabetic ketoacidosis and DKA) develops when substances called ketone bodies (which are acidic) build up during uncontrolled diabetes.

The anion gap is calculated by subtracting the serum concentrations of chloride and bicarbonate from the sodium concentration. A difference of greater than 12 mEq/L along with a lowered bicarbonate level (<15 mEq/L) shows the presence of an anion gap metabolic acidosis and is a defining feature of DKA.
If your blood test results show a high anion gap, you may have acidosis. This means you may have a higher-than-normal level of acid in your blood (a lower-than-normal blood pH). Acidosis may be a sign of the following: Dehydration. Diarrhea.
The anion gap measures the difference—or gap—between the negatively charged and positively charged electrolytes in your blood. If the anion gap is too high, your blood is more acidic than normal. If the anion gap is too low, your blood isn't acidic enough.
ICD-10-CM Code for Elevation of levels of lactic acid dehydrogenase [LDH] R74. 02.
Lactic acidosis occurs when lactic acid production exceeds lactic acid clearance. The increase in lactate production is usually caused by impaired tissue oxygenation, either from decreased oxygen delivery or a defect in mitochondrial oxygen utilization. (See "Approach to the adult with metabolic acidosis".)
A higher-than-normal lactic acid level in your blood can also be a sign of problems with your metabolism. And, your body might need more oxygen than normal because you have one of the following conditions: Liver disease. Kidney disease. Diabetes that's not under control.

More rarely, high anion gap metabolic acidosis may be caused by ingesting methanol or overdosing on aspirin.
The prevalence rate is probably about 1 in 100,000 live births worldwide . A high prevalence rate is noted in certain countries like Saudi Arabia. Propionic acidemia can present in one of the following forms: severe neonatal onset, intermittent late onset or a chronic progressive form. In the severe neonatal onset form, the affected infants present with symptoms of metabolic intoxication (poor feeding, vomiting, altered sensorium) and pancytopenia within several hours to weeks after birth. In the intermittent late onset form, the disease presents after a year or even later in life with episodes of metabolic decompensation provoked by periods of catabolic stress like fever, vomiting and trauma. Patients may also present with acute neurological crisis characterized by dystonia, rigidity, choreoathetosis and dementia (due to infarction of basal ganglia). In the chronic progressive form, the disease presents as failure to thrive, chronic vomiting, psychomotor delay, hypotonia, seizures and movement disorders. Intellectual disability, optic neuropathy, cardiomyopathy, long QT syndrome, pancreatitis, dermatitis, and immune dysfunction are known complications. PA is caused by mutations in either the PCCA (13q32) or PCCB (3q21-q22) genes encoding the - and -subunits of the propionyl CoA carboxylase. Extended newborn screening test identifies PA by detecting an elevated level of propionyl carnitine. Symptomatic cases present during metabolic decompensation with acidosis, ketosis, increased anion gap, hyperlactatemia, hyperglycinemia, hyperammonemia, hypoglycemia and cytopenias. Urine analysis by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry reveals a characteristic pattern with 3 hydroxy propionate, methyl citrate, propionyl glycine and propionyl carnitine that persists in between crisis Continue reading >>

A group of genetic disorders of the kidney tubules characterized by the accumulation of metabolically produced acids with elevated plasma chloride, hyperchloremic metabolic acidosis. Defective renal acidification of urine (proximal tubules) or low renal acid excretion (distal tubules) can lead to complications such as hypokalemia, hypercalcinuria with nephrolithiasis and nephrocalcinosis, and rickets.
My last piece of advice relates to one of those coding-clinical disconnects. Hyperlactatemia is the way providers describe elevated lactate short of lactic acidosis. There is no indexing for hyperlactatemia. The ICD-10-CM indexing will take “excessive lacticemia” to E87.2. However, this is not a phrase that clinicians use. You may want to set up an internal coding guideline stating that your providers use “hyperlactatemia” to indicate “excessive lacticemia,” or set up an acronym expansion that outputs “hyperlactatemia, i.e., excessive lacticemia,” when the clinician types in “hyperlactatemia.”
Lactic acidosis develops when there is increased production of lactate, decreased clearance, or a combination of both. The most common cause is the shock state. It can also result from impaired hepatic function, like in cirrhosis, or from regional ischemia, drugs and toxins, or from inborn errors of metabolism.
Lactic acidosis is defined as lactate level > 4 mmol/L. There is often acidemia, which means the blood measures acidic (relative to normal pH of 7.4) with a pH < 7.35, but if compensatory mechanisms are not overwhelmed, the pH may be closer to normal.
Stronger acids have a high degree of ionization, so there are relatively more free hydrogen ions floating around. pH, standing for “power of hydrogen,” is a logarithmic scale representing how acidic or alkaline a solution is. pH is based on the concentration of H+ ions. A reading of 7.0 is considered neutral, but there are still hydrogen ions around, 10 -7 to be precise. Less than 7.0 is acidic, more than 7.0 is alkaline or basic. Normal body pH is 7.4.
If the condition indexes under a general term coded at E87.2, like acidosis or acidemia, it is integral to it. Examples are renal tubular acidosis or propionic acidemia. They code to different codes, but they are indexed below E87.2.
A reading of 7.0 is considered neutral, but there are still hydrogen ions around, 10 -7 to be precise. Less than 7.0 is acidic, more than 7.0 is alkaline or basic. Normal body pH is 7.4. Those charged particles can interact chemically with other particles.
Genetic disorders of metabolism can have variable manifestations. If acidemia is part of the name of the condition and the condition is indexed below E87.2, acidosis should be considered inherent. Other inborn errors, however, may have lactic acidosis as a component.

The purpose of ICD 10 is to document the severity of illness of your patient!!!! This translates to reimbursement, even for the VA! Probably and likely due to: can be billed as if the condition exists Possibly, suspected, questionable, consistent with, appears to be, rule out (R/O) diagnosis: should be coded for the condition as if the condition exists however maybe coded as a symptom code per the ABQVA coders. However, per VISN 10 they should all be coded as if the condition exists. Again, try to link your conditions with words like Due to, likely due to, because of, associated with, and, with. All acceptable words when you are treating a condition like it exist. Example Small cell lung carcinoma with acute respiratory failure or Acute nose bleed due to chronic lymphocytic leukemia with thrombocytopenia Be specific: Left or Right, Acute or Chronic, etc. Use the word Acute whenever appropriate otherwise it will be assumed chronic. Avoid use of symptom words like dizzy, fainting or chest pain. Use diagnostic language whenever possible. Bacteremia (positive blood cx only). This is a lab finding only. Better to use the below terms. Sepsis:SIRS + infection (document suspected or known source of infection) Severe Sepsis:above + organ dysfunction, hypotension, hypoperfusion (lactic acidosis, SBP<90, or SBP drop of 40mm Hg from normal).

Follow the instructions in the Tabular List of ICD-10-CM for proper sequencing of these diagnosis codes. For example, if a patient has secondary diabetes as a result of Cushing’s syndrome and no other manifestations, report code E24.9 Cushing’s syndrome, unspecified, followed by E08.9 Diabetes mellitus due to underlying condition without manifestations. If a patient is diagnosed with secondary diabetes due to the adverse effects of steroids, report codes E09.9 Drug or chemical induced diabetes without complications and T38.0X5A Adverse effect of glucocorticoids and synthetic analogues, initial encounter.
Codes for gestational diabetes are in subcategory O24.4. These codes include treatment modality — diet alone, oral hypoglycemic drugs, insulin — so you do not need to use an additional code to specify medication management. Do not assign any other codes from category O24 with the O24.4 subcategory codes.
This elevation in blood sugar signals the pancreas to release insulin, a hormone that acts like a key to enable the glucose to enter the body’s cells so it can be used as an energy source. Lack of insulin or inability of glucose to enter the cells causes sugar to build up in the blood, which, over time, can lead to complications. ...
If you look in the Alphabetic Index under E11.9 Diabetes/type 2/with, you’ll find codes that describe type 2 diabetes with amyotrophy (E11.44), arthropathy NEC (E11.618), autonomic (poly) neuropathy (E11.43), cataract (E11.36), Charcot’s joints (E11.610) , chronic kidney disease (E11 .22) , etc.
