Maternal care for abnormality of pelvic organ, unspecified, unspecified trimester
ICD-10 O34.90 is a billable code used to indicate a diagnosis of maternal care for abnormality of pelvic organ, unspecified, unspecified trimester.
O34.90 refers to maternal care for abnormalities of pelvic organs that are unspecified and can occur during any trimester of pregnancy. This code is utilized when there is a documented abnormality in the pelvic organs, such as the uterus, ovaries, or vagina, but the specific nature of the abnormality is not detailed. Common conditions that may fall under this code include uterine fibroids, pelvic organ prolapse, or congenital anomalies. These abnormalities can impact pregnancy management, necessitating careful monitoring and potential intervention. In cases of previous cesarean deliveries, the presence of uterine scarring may complicate the pregnancy, requiring additional surveillance for risks such as uterine rupture or abnormal placentation. Proper documentation is crucial to ensure appropriate coding and to reflect the complexity of care provided to the patient.
Documentation must include detailed descriptions of the pelvic organ abnormalities, previous surgical history, and any complications or interventions planned.
Common scenarios include managing a patient with a history of uterine fibroids during pregnancy or monitoring a patient with pelvic organ prolapse.
Considerations include the impact of pelvic organ abnormalities on labor and delivery, as well as the need for potential surgical intervention.
High-risk pregnancy documentation must include comprehensive assessments of the pelvic organ abnormalities and their implications for maternal and fetal health.
Complex scenarios may involve managing pregnancies complicated by uterine scarring or previous cesarean deliveries.
High-risk coding considerations include monitoring for complications such as uterine rupture or abnormal placentation.
Used in conjunction with O34.90 when managing a patient with pelvic organ abnormalities throughout pregnancy.
Documentation must reflect the ongoing management of the pelvic organ abnormality and any interventions performed.
Obstetricians should ensure that all aspects of care related to the pelvic organ abnormality are documented.
O34.90 should be used when there is a documented abnormality of the pelvic organ that is unspecified. It is important to ensure that the documentation supports the use of this code and that any relevant history, such as previous cesarean sections, is noted.
