Other venous complications following failed attempted termination of pregnancy
ICD-10 O07.35 is a billable code used to indicate a diagnosis of other venous complications following failed attempted termination of pregnancy.
This code is used to classify other venous complications that arise following a failed attempted termination of pregnancy. Such complications may include thrombosis, varicosities, or other venous disorders that can occur due to the physiological changes in the body during pregnancy and the stress of the termination attempt. The failed termination can lead to complications such as venous stasis or increased venous pressure, which may result in conditions like deep vein thrombosis (DVT) or superficial venous thrombosis. These complications require careful monitoring and management, including anticoagulation therapy, compression therapy, and possibly surgical intervention in severe cases. It is crucial for healthcare providers to document the patient's history, the circumstances surrounding the termination attempt, and any subsequent complications to ensure accurate coding and appropriate management.
Detailed documentation of the patient's obstetric history, the circumstances of the termination attempt, and any complications that arise.
Patients presenting with complications after a failed termination, including pain, swelling, or signs of thrombosis.
Consideration of the psychological impact of the failed termination on the patient and the need for supportive care.
Comprehensive documentation of high-risk factors, including maternal comorbidities and the specifics of the termination attempt.
Management of high-risk patients who experience venous complications following a failed termination.
Focus on the implications of venous complications for both maternal and fetal health.
Used for follow-up visits to manage complications after a failed termination.
Documentation of the patient's symptoms, examination findings, and management plan.
Obstetricians should ensure that the visit is clearly linked to the complications arising from the failed termination.
To support the use of O07.35, documentation must include details of the failed termination attempt, any venous complications that arose, and the management plan for those complications. This includes clinical notes, imaging studies, and treatment records.
