Metabolic disorder following (induced) termination of pregnancy
ICD-10 O04.83 is a billable code used to indicate a diagnosis of metabolic disorder following (induced) termination of pregnancy.
Metabolic disorders following an induced termination of pregnancy can arise due to various physiological changes that occur during and after the procedure. These disorders may include alterations in glucose metabolism, electrolyte imbalances, and other metabolic derangements that can affect the patient's recovery. Medical abortions, whether pharmacological or surgical, can lead to transient or persistent metabolic changes due to hormonal fluctuations and the body's response to the termination process. Therapeutic terminations, often performed for medical reasons, may also complicate the metabolic state of the patient, especially in those with pre-existing conditions such as diabetes or thyroid disorders. Post-abortion care is crucial in monitoring and managing these metabolic disorders, ensuring that patients receive appropriate follow-up care to address any complications that may arise. Clinicians must be vigilant in assessing metabolic parameters and providing necessary interventions to restore homeostasis and support the patient's overall health following the termination of pregnancy.
Documentation must include details of the termination procedure, any metabolic disorders present, and follow-up care plans.
Patients presenting with metabolic disorders post-abortion, requiring monitoring and management.
Consideration of the patient's overall health, including pre-existing conditions and the impact of the termination on metabolic status.
Detailed documentation of high-risk factors and metabolic assessments pre- and post-termination.
High-risk patients undergoing therapeutic termination with pre-existing metabolic disorders.
In-depth evaluation of maternal-fetal implications and metabolic management strategies.
Used in cases of incomplete abortion or to manage complications post-termination.
Documentation must include indications for the procedure and any metabolic assessments.
Obstetricians should document the patient's metabolic status pre- and post-procedure.
Documentation must include details of the termination procedure, any metabolic disorders present, and follow-up care plans. It should also reflect the patient's medical history and any pre-existing conditions that may affect metabolic health.
