Complications of attempted introduction of embryo in embryo transfer
ICD-10 N98.3 is a billable code used to indicate a diagnosis of complications of attempted introduction of embryo in embryo transfer.
N98.3 refers to complications arising from the attempted introduction of an embryo during an embryo transfer procedure, which is a key component of assisted reproductive technology (ART). This code encompasses a range of potential complications that may occur during or after the procedure, including but not limited to uterine perforation, infection, and adverse reactions to medications used in the process. The embryo transfer procedure is typically performed in women undergoing in vitro fertilization (IVF) and is crucial for achieving pregnancy. Complications can arise due to various factors, including the technique used, the condition of the uterus, and the overall health of the patient. It is essential for healthcare providers to monitor patients closely for signs of complications, as timely intervention can significantly affect outcomes. Proper documentation of the procedure, any complications encountered, and the management of these complications is vital for accurate coding and billing.

Patients undergoing IVF with subsequent embryo transfer, experiencing complications such as infection or uterine perforation.
Ensure that all aspects of the procedure and any complications are thoroughly documented to support coding.
Comprehensive documentation of patient history, procedure details, and follow-up care.
Management of patients post-embryo transfer who present with complications.
Collaboration with reproductive specialists to ensure accurate coding of complications.
Used during IVF procedures.
Document the procedure details, indications, and any complications encountered.
Reproductive endocrinologists should ensure accurate coding to reflect the complexity of the procedure.
Common complications include uterine perforation, infection, bleeding, and adverse reactions to medications used during the procedure.
