Renal failure following failed attempted termination of pregnancy
ICD-10 O07.32 is a billable code used to indicate a diagnosis of renal failure following failed attempted termination of pregnancy.
O07.32 refers to renal failure that occurs as a complication following a failed attempted termination of pregnancy. This condition can arise when an abortion procedure does not successfully terminate the pregnancy, leading to potential complications such as infection, hemorrhage, or renal impairment due to systemic effects. Renal failure in this context may be acute or chronic and can result from various factors, including dehydration, sepsis, or pre-existing renal conditions exacerbated by the stress of the failed procedure. Clinicians must monitor renal function closely in these patients, as timely intervention can prevent further deterioration. Management may include fluid resuscitation, electrolyte monitoring, and, in severe cases, dialysis. The complexity of this condition lies in the interplay of obstetric care and the management of renal failure, necessitating a multidisciplinary approach to ensure optimal outcomes for the patient.
Detailed documentation of the attempted termination procedure, including indications, methods used, and patient outcomes.
Patients presenting with complications post-abortion, including renal failure, infection, or hemorrhage.
Ensure all relevant clinical details are captured, including patient history and any interventions performed.
Comprehensive documentation of maternal health status, including any pre-existing renal conditions and their management.
High-risk pregnancies where termination is considered, and subsequent complications arise.
Focus on the maternal-fetal implications of renal failure and the need for specialized care.
Used when a patient undergoes a medical abortion that fails, leading to complications.
Document the procedure details, patient consent, and any complications encountered.
Obstetricians should ensure that all aspects of care are documented, including follow-up for complications.
Documentation must include details of the attempted termination procedure, the patient's renal function status, any complications that arose, and the management provided. Clear timelines and clinical findings are essential for accurate coding.
