ICD-10-PCS 102 Obstetrics: Pregnancy Change
The ICD-10-PCS root operation Change (code 102) in the Obstetrics section refers to the replacement of a device without removing the entire original device. This operation is specific to procedures involving devices in the products of conception.
Within obstetrical care, a Change operation often involves updating monitoring or other devices associated with the products of conception to ensure proper function or adapt to clinical needs. For example, the code 102073Z describes changing a monitoring electrode through a natural or artificial opening, reflecting a minimally invasive approach. Similarly, code 10207YZ covers changing other devices in the same body part and approach. These codes allow for precise documentation of device management during pregnancy procedures, helping to track any interventions related to fetal or maternal monitoring effectively.
