About the P50–P61 Code Range
Newborns can have blood loss before birth, bleeding after birth, disorders of blood cells or clotting, and jaundice.
P50 groups fetal blood loss by its source, such as the placenta, cord, or a co-twin. P51 covers umbilical bleeding. P52 separates bleeding inside the skull that is not caused by injury by location, with grades for bleeding in the ventricles. P53 describes bleeding caused by a vitamin K deficiency that disrupts clotting. P54 groups other newborn bleeding by site.
P55 covers hemolytic disease, in which red blood cells break down, and separates Rh from ABO incompatibility. P56 covers general swelling due to hemolytic disease. P57 covers kernicterus, in which bilirubin affects the brain. P58 groups jaundice from excessive red blood cell breakdown by cause; P59 groups jaundice from other causes. P60 identifies widespread clotting within blood vessels. P61 groups other blood disorders, including anemia and transient platelet or clotting disorders.
