T45.625S is a billable ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for adverse effect of hemostatic drug, sequela. The 7th character S marks it as a sequela code, which reports a problem that remains after the original condition has resolved. It is valid on HIPAA claims for fiscal year 2027 (October 1, 2026 through September 30, 2027) and groups to MS-DRG 922 through 923. The code is not accepted as a principal diagnosis by the Medicare Code Editor and exempt from POA reporting. Coders also document this condition as aprotinin adverse reaction. In AHRQ's Clinical Classifications Software (CCSR), this diagnosis falls under Poisoning/toxic effect/adverse effects/underdosing, sequela.

Medicare Code Editor checks that affect claim validity for T45.625S.

There are selected codes that describe a circumstance which influences an individual's health status but not a current illness or injury, or codes that are not specific manifestations but may be due to an underlying cause. These codes are considered unacceptable as a principal diagnosis.

Coding GuidelinesGuidance

When coding an adverse effect of a drug that has been correctly prescribed and properly administered, assign the appropriate code for the nature of the adverse effect followed by the appropriate code for the adverse effect of the drug.

The appropriate 7th character is to be added to each code from block Poisoning by, adverse effect of and underdosing of primarily systemic and hematological agents, not elsewhere classified (T45). Use the following options for the applicable episode of care:

  • A - initial encounter
  • D - subsequent encounter
  • S - sequela

Default principal diagnosis: inpatient No · outpatient Yes

Clinical InformationClinical

  • Aminocaproic Acid

    an antifibrinolytic agent that acts by inhibiting plasminogen activators which have fibrinolytic properties.
  • Aprotinin

    a single-chain polypeptide derived from bovine tissues consisting of 58 amino-acid residues. it is an inhibitor of proteolytic enzymes including chymotrypsin; kallikrein; plasmin; and trypsin. it is used in the treatment of hemorrhage associated with raised plasma concentrations of plasmin. it is also used to reduce blood loss and transfusion requirements in patients at high risk of major blood loss during and following open heart surgery with extracorporeal circulation. (reynolds jef(ed): martindale: the extra pharmacopoeia (electronic version). micromedex, inc, englewood, co, 1995)
  • Hemostatics

    agents acting to arrest the flow of blood. absorbable hemostatics arrest bleeding either by the formation of an artificial clot or by providing a mechanical matrix that facilitates clotting when applied directly to the bleeding surface. these agents function more at the capillary level and are not effective at stemming arterial or venous bleeding under any significant intravascular pressure.
  • Tranexamic Acid

    antifibrinolytic hemostatic used in severe hemorrhage.
