Maternal care for retroversion of gravid uterus, second trimester
ICD-10 O34.532 is a billable code used to indicate a diagnosis of maternal care for retroversion of gravid uterus, second trimester.
Retroversion of the gravid uterus refers to the abnormal positioning of the uterus where it tilts backward instead of its normal forward position. This condition can occur during pregnancy, particularly in the second trimester, and may be associated with discomfort, urinary issues, or complications during labor. Maternal care for this condition involves careful monitoring and management to ensure the health of both the mother and the fetus. Factors such as previous cesarean sections and uterine scarring can complicate the situation, as they may affect the uterine position and the overall pregnancy experience. Healthcare providers must assess the impact of retroversion on the mother's health and the fetus's development, considering the potential for increased risk of complications such as obstructed labor or abnormal fetal positioning. Regular follow-ups and imaging studies may be necessary to monitor the condition and make informed decisions regarding delivery methods.
