2024 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code T58.8X1
Toxic effect of carbon monoxide from other source, accidental (unintentional)
- ICD-10-CM Code:
- T58.8X1
- ICD-10 Code for:
- Toxic effect of carbon monoxide from oth source, accidental
- Is Billable?
- Not Valid for Submission
- Code Navigator:
T58.8X1 is a non-specific and non-billable diagnosis code code, consider using a code with a higher level of specificity for a diagnosis of toxic effect of carbon monoxide from other source, accidental (unintentional). The code is not specific and is NOT valid for the year 2024 for the submission of HIPAA-covered transactions. Category or Header define the heading of a category of codes that may be further subdivided by the use of 4th, 5th, 6th or 7th characters.
Specific Coding Applicable to Toxic effect of carbon monoxide from oth source, accidental
Non-specific codes like T58.8X1 require more digits to indicate the appropriate level of specificity. Consider using any of the following ICD-10-CM codes with a higher level of specificity when coding for toxic effect of carbon monoxide from oth source, accidental:
Approximate Synonyms
The following clinical terms are approximate synonyms or lay terms that might be used to identify the correct diagnosis code:
- Accidental exposure to carbon monoxide
- Accidental exposure to carbon monoxide in industry
- Accidental poisoning by carbon monoxide from blast furnace gas
- Accidental poisoning by carbon monoxide from incomplete combustion of fuels in industrial use
- Accidental poisoning by CO - kiln vapor
- Carbon monoxide poisoning from fire
- Poisoning by carbon monoxide from aircraft while in transit, without accident to aircraft
- Poisoning by carbon monoxide from aircraft while in transit, without accident to aircraft, member of ground crew or airline employee injured
- Poisoning by carbon monoxide from aircraft while in transit, without accident to aircraft, occupant of unpowered aircraft, except parachutist, injured
- Poisoning by exhaust gas in aircraft
- Poisoning by exhaust gas in aircraft
- Poisoning by exhaust gas in aircraft
Coding Guidelines
The appropriate 7th character is to be added to each code from block Toxic effect of carbon monoxide (T58). Use the following options for the aplicable episode of care:
- A - initial encounter
- D - subsequent encounter
- S - sequela
Table of Drugs and Chemicals
The code is referenced in the Table of Drugs and Chemicals, this table contains a classification of drugs, industrial solvents, corrosive gases, noxious plants, pesticides, and other toxic agents.
According to ICD-10-CM coding guidelines it is advised to do not code directly from the Table of Drugs and Chemicals, instead always refer back to the Tabular List when doing the initial coding. Each substance in the table is assigned a code according to the poisoning classification and external causes of adverse effects. It is important to use as many codes as necessary to specify all reported drugs, medicinal or chemical substances. If the same diagnosis code describes the causative agent for more than one adverse reaction, poisoning, toxic effect or underdosing, utilize the code only once.

Patient Education
Carbon Monoxide Poisoning
Carbon monoxide (CO) is a gas that has no odor or color. But it is very dangerous. It can cause sudden illness and death. CO is found in combustion fumes, such as those made by cars and trucks, lanterns, stoves, gas ranges and heating systems. CO from these fumes can build up in places that don't have a good flow of fresh air. You can be poisoned by breathing them in. The most common symptoms of CO poisoning are:
- Headache
- Dizziness
- Weakness
- Nausea
- Vomiting
- Chest pain
- Confusion
It is often hard to tell if someone has CO poisoning, because the symptoms may be like those of other illnesses. People who are sleeping or intoxicated can die from CO poisoning before they have symptoms. A CO detector can warn you if you have high levels of CO in your home.
