ICD-10-PCS 0BN Medical and Surgical: Respiratory System Release

The ICD-10-PCS root operation Release (code 0BN) refers to freeing a body part from an abnormal constraint to improve its movement or function. In the Medical and Surgical section, this operation is applied to the Respiratory System to relieve adhesions or restrictions causing impaired respiration.

This classification includes specific codes for releasing various lung structures such as the Trachea (e.g., 0BN10ZZ Open Approach), Right Main Bronchus (0BN30ZZ Open Approach), and Left Upper Lung Lobe (0BNG0ZZ Open Approach). The procedure can be performed using different approaches, including Open, Percutaneous, Percutaneous Endoscopic, or through Natural or Artificial Openings. For example, 0BN14ZZ indicates releasing the trachea via percutaneous endoscopy, demonstrating the system’s precision in coding the method and targeted respiratory structure. Accurate use of these codes ensures comprehensive documentation of release procedures within respiratory care.
