APPENDIX I
ITOP reportings interpreted as Fetal Deaths

A statement from Part D describes when a record containing an ITOP term can be included in the fetal death file:

“Induced terminations of pregnancy should be included in the fetal death file only when the fetus was known dead before the procedure and when the induction was performed for the sole purpose of removing an already-dead fetus.”

To help aid in this often difficult determination, consider reportings such as the below to be indications that the fetus was deceased and the procedure was to remove the already-dead fetus (note:reportings can be in either part). Records such as the below will remain as part of the fetal death file.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE AUTOMATED CLASSIFICATION OF THE INITIATING AND MULTIPLE CAUSES OF FETAL DEATHS, 2022

SECTION I:    General Concepts For Coding Fetal Deaths

A.      INTRODUCTION

This manual provides instructions to NCHS mortality medical coders and nosologists for coding multiple causes of fetal death reported on the 2003 Revision of the Fetal Death Reports filed in the states. These mortality coding instructions are used by the National Center for Health Statistics (NCHS), which is the Federal agency responsible for the compilation of U.S. statistics on causes of fetal death. NCHS is part of the Centers of Disease Control and Prevention.

In coding causes of fetal death, NCHS refers to the World Health Organization’s most recent revision of the International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems (ICD-10) for processing the data for fetal mortality tabulation.

Beginning with fetal deaths occurring in 1999, ICD-10 has been used for coding and classifying causes of fetal death. This revision of the Classification is published by the World Health Organization (WHO) and consists of three volumes. Volume 1 contains a list of three-character categories, the tabular list of inclusions, and the four-character sub-categories. The supplementary Z code Classification appears in Volume 1 but is not used for classifying mortality cause of death data, including fetal deaths. Optional fifth characters are provided for certain categories and an optional independent four-character coding system is provided to classify histological varieties of neoplasm, prefixed by the letter M (for morphology) and followed by a fifth character indicating behavior. These optional codes are not used at NCHS. Volume 2 includes the international rules and notes used in classifying and tabulating cause of death data including fetal death data. Volume 3 is an alphabetical index containing a comprehensive list of terms and codes for use in coding. Copies of these volumes may be purchased. See ordering information at http://www.who.int/classifications/icd/en/.

NCHS prepares updated versions of Volume 1 and Volume 3 annually http://www.cdc.gov/nchs/nvss/instruction_manuals.htm The major purpose of these updated versions is to provide and maintain a single published source of new and/or corrected code assignments including terms not indexed in Volume 3 and/or not classified in Volume 1 of ICD-10.

Each year, all the major revisions from previous manuals will be documented in the Introduction of this manual under the heading “Major Revisions from Previous Manuals”.

This manual documents concepts and instructions for coding multiple causes of fetal death consistent with the provisions of ICD-10. This manual should be used in conjunction with the latest updated versions of ICD-10, Volumes 1 and 3 and the Perinatal Subset of medical terms. The Perinatal Subset is a list of terms classified to Chapter XVI, Certain conditions originating in the perinatal period (P00-P96). It is updated annually.

ICD-10 provides for the classification of certain medical conditions according to two different axes – the etiology or initiating disease process, referred to as the “dagger” code, and the manifestation or complication code, referred to as the “asterisk” code. NCHS uses and publishes only the dagger codes. This dual system was introduced in the Ninth Revision of the ICD and remained an integral part of the ICD-10.

For example, Coxsackie myocarditis has a code (B33.2†) marked with a “dagger” in Chapter 1, Certain infectious and parasitic diseases and a different code (I41.1*) marked with an “asterisk” in Chapter 9, Diseases of the circulatory system. NCHS only codes the B33.2. Similarly, diabetic nephropathy has a dagger code (E14.2†) in Chapter IV, Endocrine, nutritional and metabolic diseases and an asterisk code (N08.3*) in Chapter XIV, Diseases of the genitourinary system. NCHS only codes the E14.2.

The fetal death multiple cause codes are used as inputs to the ACME System (Automated Classification of Medical Entities) which was developed by NCHS to automatically select the underlying cause of death and the TRANSAX System (Translation of Axes) used to produce multiple cause of death statistics, beginning with deaths occurring in 1968. ACME will be used as the automated system for selecting the initiating cause of fetal deaths. The ACME System requires codes be assigned for each condition reported on the Fetal Death Report, usually in the order the information is recorded on the report. The output data of the system are the initiating causes of fetal deaths assigned by applying the underlying cause Selection Rule 3 and Modification Rules A-E of the Classification. These rules are documented in the ICD-10, Volume 2. The same cause is selected as if one applied the manual cause of fetal death coding instructions specified in Instruction Manual 2J, Instructions for the Manual Classification of the Initiating Cause of Fetal Deaths, 2012.

B.      DEFINITIONS

Fetal Death is defined as “death prior to the complete expulsion or extraction from its mother of a product of human conception, irrespective of the duration of pregnancy and which is not an induced termination of pregnancy. The death is indicated by the fact that after such expulsion or extraction, the fetus does not breathe or show any other evidence of life, such as beating of the heart, pulsation of the umbilical cord, or definite movement of voluntary muscles. Heartbeats are to be distinguished from transient cardiac contractions; respirations are to be distinguished from fleeting respiratory efforts or gasps.”

Induced Termination of Pregnancy (Abortion) is defined as “purposeful interruption of an intrauterine pregnancy with the intention other than to produce a liveborn infant and which does not result in a live birth.” This definition excludes management of prolonged retention of products of conception following fetal death.

Ectopic pregnancy reported with an intentional intervention An ectopic pregnancy reported with an intentional intervention, such as “removal of embryo”, is not included in the fetal death file. Records with this type of event reported will be identified by the coder and proper steps taken for removal.

Live Birth is defined as “the expulsion or extraction from its mother of a product of human conception, irrespective of the duration of the pregnancy, which, after such expulsion or extraction, breathes or shows any other evidence of life such as beating of the heart, pulsation of the umbilical cord, or definite movement of voluntary muscles, whether or not the umbilical cord has been cut or the placenta is attached. Heartbeats are to be distinguished from transient cardiac contractions; respirations are to be distinguished from fleeting respiratory efforts or gasps.” "

This manual only includes instructions on coding causes of fetal deaths which includes “spontaneous abortions”. Terms interpreted as spontaneous abortions are included in Appendix G.

Induced abortions and live births are not included in the fetal death file. Terms interpreted as induced abortions are included in Appendix H.

C.      Item 18. CAUSE/CONDITIONS CONTRIBUTING TO FETAL DEATH

The U.S. Standard Report of Fetal Death provides spaces for a certifier to record pertinent information concerning the diseases, morbid conditions, and injuries which either resulted in or contributed to a fetal death. The CAUSE/CONDITIONS CONTRIBUTING TO FETAL DEATH portion of the Fetal Death Report includes items 18a and 18b. It is designed to obtain the opinion of the certifier as to the initiating cause and prompts the certifier to report specific conditions.

A cause of fetal death is the morbid condition or disease process, abnormality, injury, or poisoning leading directly to fetal death. The initiating cause of fetal death is the disease or injury, which initiated the chain of morbid events leading directly to death or the circumstances of the accident or violence, which produced fatal injury. A fetal death often results from the combined effect of two or more conditions. These conditions may be completely unrelated, arising independently of each other or they may be causally related to each other; that is, one cause may lead to another which in turn, leads to a third cause, etc.

The format in the 2003 Revision of the Fetal Death Report which the certifier is requested to record the causes of fetal death facilitates the selection of the initiating cause when two or more causes are reported. He or she is requested to report an initiating condition in Item 18a and all remaining causes in Item 18b.

D.      INCLUSIONS IN THE FILE

In some circumstances, the conditions reported in 18. Cause/Conditions Contributing to Fetal Death may indicate that this is not a fetal death. If the event does not meet the definition of a fetal death, the records will be removed automatically.

Induced terminations of pregnancy should be included in the fetal death file only when the fetus was known dead before the procedure and when the induction was performed for the sole purpose of removing an already-dead fetus. The term “induced termination of pregnancy” implies an induced termination of the pregnancy in progress, not one in which the fetal death has already occurred. Appendix G contains a list of terms not considered as induced abortions and that are coded as fetal deaths.

Code all information reported in Item 18 of the Fetal Death Report, “CAUSE/CONDITIONS CONTRIBUTING TO FETAL DEATH

Refer to the sex of the fetus to assign the most appropriate cause of fetal death code.

In Volumes 1 and 3 of ICD-10 and the Perinatal Subset, the fourth-character subcategories of three-character categories are preceded by a decimal point. For coding purposes, omit the decimal point.

The data will be entered in the same format for coding and entering multiple causes of fetal deaths as used for coding multiple causes of death for regular mortality data and will be processed through Underlying cause selection Rule 3 and the Modification Tables of the ACME System Decision Tables. A screen will be generated in the same format used for entering regular mortality multiple cause data. The State File Number will also be generated.

Enter codes in 18a as if reported on the uppermost line of Part I of the regular death certificate in the same order as the entries they represent, proceeding from the entry reported uppermost, downward and from the left to right. Terms requiring special formatting may affect the placement of codes. If the lower line is an obvious continuation of a line above, enter the codes accordingly. When an identical code applies to more than one condition reported, enter the code for the first-mentioned of these conditions only. If the entries are numbered, code in numeric order.

Enter codes in 18b as if reported in Part II of the regular death certificate in the same order as the entries they represent, proceeding from the entry reported uppermost, downward and from the left to right. If the lower line is an obvious continuation of a line above, enter the codes accordingly. When an identical code applies to more than one condition reported, enter the code for the first-mentioned of these conditions only.

NOTE: Repetitive (identical) codes are acceptable, if reported once in 18a (Part 1) and once in 18b (Part II). They are not acceptable if reported together in 18a (Part 1) or together in 18b (Part II).

B.      EXCESSIVE CODES

When a line in 18a (Part I) or 18b (Part II) requires more than eight codes, delete the excessive codes (any over eight) for the line using the following criteria in the order listed:

NOTE: During the deletion process, when the numbers of existing codes become eight, discontinue the deletion process. The ACME System can tolerate a record with eight codes per line.

1.   Delete ill-defined conditions, P042, P070, P071, P072, P073, P201, P209, P219, P95, and R000-R99 (except when one of these codes is the first code on the line), proceeding right to left.

2.   Delete any nature of injury codes classified to S000-T983 (except when one of these codes is the first code on the line), proceeding right to left.

3.   Delete any repetitive codes (except the first one on a line) proceeding right to left.

4.   If, after applying the preceding criteria, 18a or 18b still has more than eight codes, delete beginning with the last code on the line until only eight remain.

When a single record requires more than fourteen codes, delete the excessive codes using the following criteria in the order listed:

NOTE: During the deletion process, when the number of existing codes become fourteen, discontinue the deletion process. The ACME System can tolerate a record with fourteen codes.

Begin deleting in 18b (Part II).

1.   Delete all ill-defined conditions classified to P042, P070, P071, P072, P073, P201, P209, P219, P95 and R000-R99 in 18b (Part II). Do not delete an ill-defined condition when it is the first code in 18b (Part II). Proceed deleting right to left in 18b (Part II). If there are more than fourteen codes remaining after deleting the ill-defined codes in 18b (Part II), delete any of the above ill-defined codes in 18a (Part I) applying the same criteria and order of deletion.

2.   Delete any nature of injury codes classified to S000-T983. Do not delete a nature of injury code when it is the first code in 18b (Part II). Proceed deleting right to left in 18b (Part II). If there are more than fourteen codes remaining after deleting the nature of injury codes in 18b (Part II), delete any of the above nature of injury codes in 18a (Part I) applying the same criteria and order of deletion.

3.   Delete any repetitive codes. Do not delete a repetitive code when it is the first code in 18b (Part II). If there are more than fourteen codes remaining after deleting the repetitive codes in 18b (Part II), delete repetitive codes in 18a (Part I), applying the same criteria and order of deletion. Proceed right to left until there are only fourteen codes remaining on the record.

C.      GENERAL CODING CONCEPT

The coding of cause of fetal death information consists of the assignment of the most appropriate ICD-10 code(s) for each diagnostic entity reported on the Fetal Death Report. In order to arrive at the appropriate code for a diagnostic entity, code each entity separately. Do not apply provisions in ICD-10 for linking two or more diagnostic terms to form a composite diagnosis classifiable to a single ICD-10 code.

 

Plural form of disease

Do not use the plural form of a disease or the plural form of a site to indicate “multiple”.

EXAMPLE: Congenital defects    Q899

Code Q899, Defect, congenital. Do not code Q897, multiple congenital defects.

 

Implied “disease

When an adjective or noun form of a site is entered as a separate diagnosis, i.e., it is not part of the entry immediately preceding or following it, assume the word “disease” after the site and code accordingly.

 

Drug dependent, drug dependency

When drug dependent or drug dependency modifies a condition, consider as a non-codable modifier unless indexed.

 

Conditions qualified by “rule out,” “ruled out,” “r/o”

When a condition is qualified by “rule out,” “ruled out,” or “r/o,” etc., do not enter a code for the condition.

 

Non-indexed and illegible entries

Terms not indexed

When a term is reported that is not in the index, enter “P95” on the record where a code for the non-indexed term would go. If there are other classifiable entries reported, disregard the non-indexed term and code the remaining entries as indexed.

Illegible entries

When an illegible entry is the only entry on the report, code P95. When an illegible entry is reported with other classifiable entries, disregard the illegible entry and code the remaining entries as indexed.

 

Qualifying Conditions as Acute or Chronic

Acute and chronic

Sometimes the terms acute and chronic are reported preceding two or more conditions. In these cases, use the term (“acute” or “chronic”) with the condition it immediately precedes.

 

Punctuation Marks

1.   Disregard punctuation marks such as a period, comma, semicolon, colon, dash, slash, question mark or exclamation mark when placed at the end of a line in 18a. Do not apply this instruction to a hyphen (-) which indicates a word is incomplete.

2.   When conditions are separated by a slash (/), code each condition as indexed.

3.   When a dash (-) or slash (/) is used to separate sites reported with one condition and the combination of the sites is indexed to a single ICD-10 code, disregard the punctuation and code as indexed. This does not apply to commas.

4.   When conditions are indexed together, yet separated by a comma, code the conditions separately. If the term following the comma is an adjective, refer to instructions on coding adjectival modifiers.

D.      Definitions and Types of Diagnostic Entities

A diagnostic entity is a single term or a composite term, comprised of one word or of two or more adjoining words, that is used to describe a disease, nature of injury, or other morbid condition. In this manual, diagnostic entity and diagnostic term are used interchangeably. A diagnostic entity may indicate the existence of a condition classifiable to a single ICD-10 category or it may contain elements of information that are classifiable to different ICD-10 categories. For coding purposes, it is necessary to distinguish between two different kinds of diagnostic entities – a “one-term entity,” and a “multiple one-term entity.”

One-term entity

1.   A one-term entity is a diagnostic entity classifiable to a single ICD-10 code.

2.   A diagnostic term that contains one of the following adjectival modifiers indicates the condition modified has undergone certain changes and is considered to be a one-term entity:

adenomatous     hypoxemic

anoxic          hypoxic

congestive      inflammatory

cystic          ischemic

embolic         necrotic

erosive         obstructed, obstructive

gangrenous      ruptured

hemorrhagic

          (These instructions apply to the above adjectival modifiers only.)

          For code assignment, apply the following criteria in the order stated:

a.   If the modifier and lead term are indexed together, code as indexed.

b.   If the modifier is not indexed under the lead term, but “specified” is, use the code for specified (usually .8).

c.    If neither the modifier nor “specified” is indexed under the lead term, refer to Volume 1 under the NOS code for the lead term and look for an applicable specified 4th character subcategory.

d.   If neither a, b, or c apply, code the lead term without the modifier.

Multiple one-term entity

A multiple one-term entity is a diagnostic entity consisting of two or more contiguous words on a line for which the Classification does not provide a single code for the entire entity but does provide a single code for each of the components of the diagnostic entity. Consider as a multiple one-term entity if each of the components can be considered as separate one-term entities, i.e., they can stand alone as separate diagnosis. Code each component of the multiple one-term entity as indexed and on the same line where reported.

Adjectival modifiers

NOTE: Code an adjective reported at the end of a diagnostic entity as if it preceded the entity. If indexed to a single code, use that code. If not indexed together, follow the instructions for coding multiple one-term entities.

1.   If an adjectival modifier is reported with more than one condition, modify only the first condition.

2.   If an adjectival modifier is reported with one condition and more than one site is reported, modify all sites.

3.   If an adjectival modifier precedes two different diseases that are reported with a connecting term, modify only the first disease.

4.   If the adjectival form of a word(s) or a qualifier(s) is reported in parenthesis, use the adjective to modify the term preceding it.

Do not modify the vascular disease as diabetic since there are two separate diseases reported with a connecting term.

Parenthetical Entries

When one medical entity is reported, followed by another complete medical entity enclosed in parenthesis, disregard the parenthesis and code as separate terms.

a)   When the adjective form of words or qualifiers are reported in parenthesis, use the adjectives to modify the entity preceding it.

b)   If the term in parenthesis is not a complete term and is not a modifier, consider as part of the preceding term.

Code 18a (Part I) P701, Maternal condition, affecting fetus or newborn, diabetes mellitus (conditions in E10-E14). Code as Diabetic renal disease. Consider “Diabetic” as an adjective modifying renal disease.

E.       CODING FETAL CONDITIONS

Conditions of the fetus can be coded to almost any category in the list of valid codes (Appendix D) other than P000-P049 but will most often be coded to categories P050-P95, Perinatal conditions and Q000-Q999, Congenital anomalies.

In assigning codes for conditions of the fetus, code as indexed in this priority order:

fetus

fetal

affecting fetus or newborn

fetus or newborn

congenital

However, pay special attention to the availability of a relevant code in the Perinatal Subset. There is a subset of Volume 3, the alphabetical index, dedicated to perinatal conditions and referred to as the Perinatal Subset. NCHS provides this as a separate document to assist coders in identifying conditions indexed as “fetus and newborn” or classified to Chapter XVI. It is updated annually.

F.       CODING MATERNAL CONDITIONS

Maternal conditions affecting the fetus should be coded to categories P000-P049. When conditions of the mother directly impact the fetus and are reported on the Fetal Death Report and the condition is not indexed, refer to Volume I, Chapter XVI to categories P000-P049, Fetus and newborn affected by maternal factors and by complications of pregnancy, labor and delivery. Also, refer to the Index under:

Maternal condition, affecting fetus or newborn

Pregnancy, complicated by

Delivery, complicated by

Labor

The complication itself, such as Placenta, abnormality, affecting fetus or newborn.

Complications of Placenta, Cord, or Membranes

When the checkbox items in 18a and 18b are marked, each should be assigned codes as follows:

 Rupture of membranes prior to onset of labor

 Abruptio placenta

 Placental insufficiency

 Prolapsed cord

 Chorioamnionitis

 Other (specify)

If the checkbox for rupture of membranes prior to onset of labor is marked, assign code P011.

If the checkbox for abruptio placenta is marked, assign code P021.

If the checkbox for placental insufficiency is marked, assign code P022.

If the checkbox for prolapsed cord is marked, assign code P024.

If the checkbox for chorioamnionitis is marked, assign code P027.

If the checkbox for Other is marked ‘Y’ and no codeable condition or a condition classified to P95 is reported in the ‘Other (specify)’, assign codes P022, P026, and P029; regardless of whether any of the previous boxes have been checked.

If specified conditions are written in the ‘Other (specify)’, code the condition to the mother unless obviously of the fetus. (example, anencephaly – the absence of a large part of the brain and the skull; this is clearly a condition of the fetus.)           

 Fetal injury    If reported as a result of an external cause, the instructions for coding external causes on regular mortality data will apply.

 Unknown       code P95 (only if no other information is on record)

G.      Format

Conditions reported in 18a

Enter the codes for entries in 18a in the order the entries are reported, proceeding from the entry reported uppermost in 18a from left to right, if there is more than one entry on the same line. If the entries are numbered, code in numeric order.

Connecting Terms

“Due to” written in or implied in Items 18a and 18b

When the certifier has stated that one condition was due to another or has used another connecting term that implies a due to relationship between conditions in items18 and 18b, take into consideration the position of the term in 18a/18b and code the entry following the “written-in due to” directly preceding the term.

a)   The following connecting terms must be “written in” and are interpreted as meaning “due to” when the entity immediately preceding and following these terms is a disease condition, nature of injury or an external cause:

c)   Conditions reported in 18b

NOTE: Enter the codes for entries in 18b in the order the entries are reported, proceeding from the entry reported uppermost in 18b from left to right, if there is more than one entry on the same line. If entries are numbered, code in numeric order.

 

d)   Deletion of “18b” on Fetal Death Report

When the certifier has marked through the printed 18b, disregard the marking and code the entities as reported in 18b (Part II).

e)   Doubtful Diagnosis

1.   Doubtful qualifying expression: When expressions such as “apparently,” “presumably,” “?,” “perhaps,” and “possibly,” qualify any condition, disregard these expressions and code the condition as indexed.

a)   Interpretation of “either…or…”

Consider the following as a statement of “either or:”

· Two conditions reported on one line and both conditions qualified by expressions such as “apparently,” “presumably,” “?,” “perhaps,” and “possibly”.

· Two or more conditions connected by “or” or “versus”.

2.   Code as follows:

When more than one condition of the placenta classifiable to P020, P021,P022 is qualified by one of the expressions interpreted as “either/or,” code P022, “Unspecified morphological and functional abnormalities of the placenta”.

EXAMPLE:

Placenta previa versus abruption placenta

Code P022, Placenta, abnormal, affecting fetus or newborn.

3.   When more than one condition of the umbilical cord classifiable to P024, P025, P026 is qualified by one of the expressions interpreted as “either/or,” code P026, Unspecified condition of the umbilical cord.”

EXAMPLE:

Knot in umbilical cord or short cord

Code P026, Abnormal, abnormality, umbilical cord, affecting fetus or newborn.

4.   When more than one condition of the maternal membranes (P027, P028) is qualified by one of the expressions interpreted as “either/or,” code P029, “Unspecified abnormality of membranes”.

5.   When more than one fetal anomaly is reported and qualified by one of the terms interpreted as “either/or,” code as follows:

a) If an anomaly is reported of different parts of the same site, code Anomaly of the specified site only.

EXAMPLE:

Congenital anomaly of the tricuspid or aortic valve

Code Q248, Anomaly of heart valve NEC.

b)   When conditions are qualified by a statement of “either or” and only one site/system is involved, code to the residual category for the site/system.

EXAMPLES:

Encephalocele or hypoplasia of brain
Code Q049, Anomaly, of brain.

Anomaly of the bladder or kidney
Code Q649, Anomaly, unspecified of the urinary system.

c)   If different specified anomalies of the same system, code anomaly of the specified system only.

EXAMPLE:
Congenital stenosis of pylorus or atresia of duodenum.
Code Q459, Anomaly, gastrointestinal tract NEC.

 

NOTE: IF MORE THAN ONE CONDITION OF THE FETUS (INCLUDING MATERNAL CONDITIONS) IS REPORTED WITH A TERM INTERPRETED AS “EITHER/OR,” AND THE ABOVE INSTRUCTIONS DO NOT APPLY, REFER TO IMMEDIATE SUPERVISOR FOR A CODE ASSIGNMENT.

H.      Screening/Tests Results

When a statement is reported on the Fetal Death Report indicating a screening or diagnostic test was performed and the results of the test are not reported, do not enter a code for the screening/test. Tests are used for diagnostic purposes and not considered a diagnosis unless the results are reported. If results are reported, code as indexed.

EXAMPLES

Diagnostic imaging of the kidney performed
Liver function studies
Screened for tuberculosis

Do not enter a code for a condition when the results are reported as “negative”.

EXAMPLES:

Negative for tuberculosis
Tested negative for HIV
Tested positive for tuberculosis P370. Indexed under Tuberculosis, congenital

I.       Inclusion of additional information (AI) to Fetal Death Reports

Code supplemental information when it modifies or supplements data on the original Fetal Death Report as follows:

1.   When additional information (AI) states the initiating cause of a specified disease or condition in 18a (Part 1), code the additional information (AI) preceding the specified disease.

2.   When additional information (AI) modifies a specified disease or condition, use the AI and code the specified disease where reported.

3.   When there is a stated or implied complication of surgery and the additional information indicates the condition for which the surgery was performed, code this condition as follows:

a) If the surgical procedure was performed on the mother, code the condition for which the surgical procedure was performed following the P006 (the code used for the fetus and newborn affected by a surgical procedure on the mother).

b) If the surgical procedure was performed on the fetus, refer to your immediate supervisor for a code assignment.

4.   When the additional information (AI) states a certain condition is the initiating cause of death, code this as the first condition in 18a (Part 1).

5.   When any morphological type of neoplasm is reported in 18a (Part 1) with no mention of the “site” and additional information specifies a site, code the specified site only on the line where the morphological type is reported.

6.   When additional information states the primary site of a malignant neoplasm of the fetus, enter the code preceding where information concerning the neoplasm is reported.

7.   When the additional information does not modify a condition on the report, or does not state that this condition is the initiating cause, code the AI as the last condition(s) in 18b (Part II).

J.       Amended Reports

When an “Amended Fetal Death Report” is submitted, code the conditions reported on the amended report only.

K.      Sex Limitations

Certain categories in ICD-10 are limited to one sex:

                    For Males Only      For Females Only

B260          C51-C579

C60-C63       D06

D074-D076     D070-D073

D176          D25-D28

D29           D390-D391

D40           D397-D399

Q53-Q55       P546

Q98           Q500-Q529

              Q960-Q962

              Q964-Q979

 

L.       Plurality Limitations

Certain categories in ICD-10 are limited to one plurality. If the number in the Plurality box on the Fetal Death Record is greater than “1”, code P015 as the last entry in 18b (Part II).

For Multiples Only

P01.5

Q89.4

NOTE: Do not add/code P01.5 for “twin to twin transfusion”. Code to P02.3 as indexed.

M.      Relating and modifying conditions

1.       Implied site of disease

Certain conditions are classified in the ICD-10 according to the site affected, e.g.:

atrophy         enlargement     obstruction

calcification   failure         perforation

calculus        fibrosis        rupture

congestion      gangrene        stenosis

degeneration    hypertrophy     stones

dilatation      insufficiency   stricture

embolism        necrosis

                   (This list is not all inclusive)

Occasionally, these conditions are reported without specification of site. Relate conditions such as these for which the Classification does not provide a NOS code. Also, relate conditions which are usually reported of a site. Generally, it may be assumed that such a condition was of the same site as another condition if the Classification provides for coding the condition of unspecified site to the site of the other condition. These coding principles apply whether or not there are other conditions reported. Apply the following instructions when relating a condition of unspecified site to the site of the specified condition:

a.  General instructions for implied site of a disease

When applying the instructions for Implied site of a Disease and Relating and Modifying, consider all specified conditions for the following choices to be on the same line and apply applicable instructions for relating and modifying:

1.  Maternal Conditions/Diseases

(Specify)_____________________________

2.  Complications of Placenta, Cord, or Membranes

Rupture of membranes prior to onset of labor

Abruptio placenta

Placental insufficiency

Prolapsed cord

Chorioamnionitis

Other (Specify) _____________________________

3.  Other Obstetrical or Pregnancy Complications

     (Specify)_______________________________________

4.  Fetal Anomaly (Specify)___________________________

5.  Fetal Injury (Specify) _____________________________

6.  Fetal Infection (Specify) ___________________________

7.  Other Fetal Conditions/Disorders

     (Specify) _______________________________________

8.  Unknown

(1)        When conditions are reported on the same line, assume the condition of unspecified site was of the same site as the condition of specified site.

(2)        When conditions of different sites are reported on the same line, assume the condition of unspecified site was of the same site as the condition immediately preceding it.

b.  Relating specific categories

(1)         When embolism, infarction, occlusion, thrombosis NOS is reported:

·     from a specified site, code the condition of the site reported.

·     of a site, from a specified site, code the condition to both sites reported.

(2)         Relate a condition of unspecified site to the complete term of a multiple site entity. If it is not indexed together, relate the condition to the site of the complete indexed term.

 

Non-traumatic conditions

Consider conditions that are usually but not always traumatic in origin to be qualified as non-traumatic when reported with a “written in” due to or on the same line with a disease.

SECTION III: INTENT OF CERTIFIER

A.      INTRODUCTION

In order to assign the most appropriate code for a given diagnostic entity, it may be necessary to take other recorded information into account. It is important to interpret this information properly so the meaning intended by the certifier is correctly conveyed. The objective is to code each diagnostic entity in accordance with the intent of the certifier without combining separate codable entities. The following instructions help to determine the intent of the certifier. Apply Intent of Certifier instructions to “See also” terms in the Index as well. These instructions are assumed to be for the fetus unless stated as a maternal condition or reported on the Maternal Condition line.

B.      Coding conditions classified to injuries as disease conditions

a.   Some conditions (such as injury, hematoma or laceration) of a specified organ are indexed directly to a traumatic category but may not always be traumatic in origin. Consider these types of conditions to be qualified as non-traumatic when reported:

·     with a written in due to, or on the same line with a disease or reported due to drug poisoning or drug therapy.

·     When there is provision in the Classification for coding the condition considered to be qualified as non-traumatic as “non-traumatic,” code accordingly. Otherwise, code to the category that has been provided for “Other” diseases of the organ (usually .8).

b.   Some conditions are indexed directly to a traumatic category, but the Classification also provides a non-traumatic code. When these conditions are reported of the fetus and due to or with a disease and an external cause is also reported on the record, the instructions for coding external causes on regular mortality data will apply.

c.    Some conditions are indexed directly to a traumatic category, but the Classification also provides a non-traumatic code. When these conditions are reported, code the condition as non-traumatic unless the condition is reported due to or on the same line with an injury or external cause. This instruction applies only to conditions with the term “non-traumatic” in the Index.

C.      Organisms and Infections

          Organisms

                                                 

 Escherichia coli     Cytomegalovirus     Candida 

 Staphylococcal       Streptococcal       Fungus  

                                                 

 

          Infectious conditions

                                                     

 Abscess        Infection     Sepsis, Septicemia     

 Bacteremia     Pneumonia     Septic Shock           

 Empyema        Pyemia        Words ending in “itis” 

                                                     

 

These lists are NOT all inclusive. Use them as a guide.

Infections and organisms are yet another situation in which care needs to be taken to determine if it is directly affecting the fetus or the fetus is merely impacted by a maternal condition before assigning a code. If the infection or organism is reported in the specified line for maternal conditions or if reported elsewhere but qualified as maternal, then code to a maternal code (e.g., P002 or P008). Otherwise, assume the fetus has the infection or organism and assign a fetal code. (e.g., P35-P39), if indexed.

Take into consideration that some infections and organisms of the fetus are classified to Chapter 1.

1.   Do not use HIV or AIDS to modify an infectious or inflammatory condition. Code as two separate conditions.

2.   When an infectious or inflammatory condition and a specified organism or specified non-systemic infection is reported, code the infectious or inflammatory condition and the organism or infection separately.

3.   When any condition and infection NOS is reported, code both conditions where entered on the report.

4.   When a non-infectious or non-inflammatory condition and infection NOS is reported as the initiating cause, code the non-infectious or non-inflammatory condition as indexed and code infection NOS where entered on the report.

5.   When an organism is reported preceding two or more infectious conditions reported consecutively on the same line, code each of the infectious conditions modified by the organism.

6.   When one infectious condition is modified by more than one organism, modify the condition by all organisms.

7.   When any condition is reported and a generalized infection such as bacteremia, fungemia, sepsis, septicemia, systemic infection, or viremia is reported, code both the condition and the generalized infection where entered on the report. Do not modify the condition by the infection.

D.      Drug Use NOS and Noxious Substances

The code assignment depends upon whether the fetus is directly impacted or affected by maternal behavior or exposure. For instance, code maternal drug use P044, when reported in 18a or 18b. Refer to the indexing of maternal conditions in the Perinatal Subset and Volume 1, Category P04 to assign the appropriate code for a fetus affected by maternal behavior or exposure.

SECTION IV:  CLASSIFICATION OF CERTAIN ICD-10 CATEGORIES

A.      CONGENITAL CONDITIONS

The Classification does not provide congenital and acquired codes for all conditions. When no provision is made for a distinction, disregard the statement of congenital or acquired and code the NOS code.

B.      CERTAIN FETAL CONDITIONS (P000-P969)

When reported in 18a or 18b, code the following entries as indicated:

Birth weight of         2 pounds (999 gms) or under......................................... P070
                              Over 2 pounds (1000 gms) but not more than
                              5 ½ pounds (2499 gms)................................................ P071
                              10 pounds (4500 gms) or more...................................... P080

Gestation of             Less than 28 weeks....................................................... P072
                              28 weeks but less than 37 weeks................................... P073
                              42 or more completed weeks......................................... P082

                             NOTE: 37-41 weeks, no code. This is a normal gestation period.

Premature labor or delivery NOS.................................................................. P073

When a condition classifiable to P703-P720, P722-P749 is the only cause(s) reported in 18a or 18b, code P95. If reported with other perinatal conditions, code as indexed.

C.      ILL-DEFINED AND UNKNOWN CAUSES

When any of the following terms is the only entry (or entries) on the fetal death report, code P95 everywhere terms are reported in 18a or 18b:

Cause not found                    Immediate cause unknown

Cause unknown                      Intrauterine death

Cause undetermined                 No specific etiology

Could not be determined            identified

Deadborn fetus NOS                 No specific known causes

Etiology never determined          Non-specific causes

Etiology not defined               Not known

Etiology uncertain                 Obscure etiology

Etiology unexplained               Stillborn

Etiology unknown                   Undetermined

Etiology undetermined              Uncertain

Etiology unspecified               Unclear

Fetal Death                        Unexplained cause

Fetal Demise                       Unknown

Final event undetermined           ? Cause

Immediate cause not determined     ? Etiology

 

“Unknown” reported in the checkbox, code P95, if no other information is on the record. If the checkbox for Unknown is marked in one section (either 18a or 18b) and there is also a term assigned to P95 reported in the other section, code P95 in both sections.

Code 18a (Part I) P022 P026 P029, complication of placenta, cord, or membranes and leave 18b (Part II) blank since P95 is not assigned when other information is on the record.

D.      GENERAL CONCEPT REGARDING EXTERNAL CAUSES REPORTED ON FETAL DEATH REPORTS

If an external event is reported and it is the mother who received the injuries, code the appropriate P000-P049.

If an external event is reported and it is the fetus who received the injury, the instructions for coding external causes on regular mortality data will apply.

Refer to the following instructions on coding external causes on Fetal Death Reports.

E.       Maternal External Causes

When a complication of any type of medical care is reported, including drug therapy, surgery, or a specified type of therapy including obstetrical procedures, code the appropriate P000-P049.

Do not enter the nature of injury code, external cause code or place code. Take into consideration if the condition for which the medical care was administered is reported. If questionable, refer to Supervisor.

If any type of external event (poisonings, accident, suicide, homicide or undetermined) is reported of the mother, code to the appropriate P000-P049. Do not enter a nature of injury code, external cause code or place code.

Take into consideration where the certifier has recorded the external event and code the P000-P049 in that same position. If questionable, refer to your immediate Supervisor.

F.       Fetal Injury

When any type of medical care including drug therapy, surgery, or any other specified type of medical care is reported of the fetus, the instructions for coding external causes on regular mortality data will apply.

If any type of external event or injury is reported of the fetus, the instructions for coding external causes on regular mortality data will apply.

APPENDIX I
ITOP reportings interpreted as Fetal Deaths

A statement from Part D describes when a record containing an ITOP term can be included in the fetal death file:

“Induced terminations of pregnancy should be included in the fetal death file only when the fetus was known dead before the procedure and when the induction was performed for the sole purpose of removing an already-dead fetus.”

To help aid in this often difficult determination, consider reportings such as the below to be indications that the fetus was deceased and the procedure was to remove the already-dead fetus (note:reportings can be in either part). Records such as the below will remain as part of the fetal death file.
