J98. 01 - Acute bronchospasm | ICD-10-CM.
Definition. Bronchospasm is an abnormal contraction of the smooth muscle of the bronchi, resulting in an acute narrowing and obstruction of the respiratory airway. A cough with generalized wheezing usually indicates this condition. Bronchospasm is a chief characteristic of asthma and bronchitis.
Bronchospasms happen when the muscles that line your bronchi (airways in your lungs) tighten. This results in wheezing, coughing, and other symptoms. Many things can cause bronchospasm, including asthma, and it's usually managed with bronchodilators.

ICD-9 Code Transition: 780.79 Code R53. 83 is the diagnosis code used for Other Fatigue. It is a condition marked by drowsiness and an unusual lack of energy and mental alertness. It can be caused by many things, including illness, injury, or drugs.
In most cases of bronchospasm, a doctor will prescribe bronchodilators. These drugs cause the airways to widen, increasing airflow. The three most common types of bronchodilators are beta-agonists, anticholinergics, and theophylline.
The major categories of medications known to induce bronchospasm or cough, including beta-blockers, cholinesterase inhibitors, angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors, and inhalational agents are reviewed.
Bronchospasm is due to irritation, inflammation, or allergic reaction of the airways. People with asthma get bronchospasm. However, not everyone with bronchospasm has asthma.
To diagnose bronchospasm, you can see your primary care doctor or a pulmonologist (a doctor who treats lung diseases). The doctor will ask about your symptoms and find out if you have any history of asthma or allergies. Then they will listen to your lungs as you breathe in and out.
While laryngospasms affect your vocal cords (two bands of tissue housed inside of your larynx), bronchospasms affect your bronchi (the airways that connect your windpipe to your lungs). Both conditions result in sudden, frightening spasms — and both conditions can temporarily affect your ability to breathe and speak.
This medicine may cause paradoxical bronchospasm, which means your breathing or wheezing will get worse. Paradoxical bronchospasm may be life-threatening. Check with your doctor right away if you or your child have coughing, difficulty breathing, shortness of breath, or wheezing after using this medicine.
Bronchospasm is a narrowing of your airway that usually comes and goes. It may make it hard for you to breathe. Severe bronchospasm may be life-threatening.
Bronchial spasms usually come on quickly. They can cause a feeling of tightness in your chest that makes it difficult to catch your breath. Wheezing is one of the most common symptoms of a bronchial spasm. You may also cough a lot when your bronchial tubes are constricted.

Bronchitis is usually caused by a virus. Less often, it's caused by a bacteria. In most cases, bronchitis is caused by the same viruses that cause the common cold or flu. The virus is contained in the millions of tiny droplets that come out of the nose and mouth when someone coughs or sneezes.
The ICD10 code for the diagnosis "Acute bronchospasm" is "J98.01". J98.01 is a VALID/BILLABLE ICD10 code, i.e it is valid for submission for HIPAA-covered transactions.
The 2019 edition of ICD-10-CM J98.01 became effective on October 1, 2018.
