ICD-10-PCS 0U2 Medical and Surgical: Female Reproductive System Change
The ICD-10-PCS root operation Change (Character 2 in the third axis) refers to the procedure of exchanging or replacing a device without removing the existing device entirely, primarily within the Female Reproductive System under the Medical and Surgical section. This operation captures the updating or substitution of devices to maintain or restore function.
Within this context, Change encompasses procedures such as changing a Drainage Device or Contraceptive Device using an External Approach in different anatomical locations. For example, code 0U23X0Z describes changing a drainage device in the Ovary, while 0U2DXHZ pertains to changing a contraceptive device in the Uterus and Cervix. Other codes like 0U2HXGZ indicate changing a pessary in the Vagina and Cul-de-sac. These codes illustrate the precision of ICD-10-PCS in documenting specific device changes across various female reproductive organs, highlighting the importance of exact procedural coding in clinical practice and medical records.
