Includes
This note appears immediately under a three character code title to further define, or give examples of, the content of the category.
- intracranial hemorrhage due to anoxia or hypoxia
Type 1 Excludes
A type 1 excludes note is a pure excludes note. It means "NOT CODED HERE!" An Excludes1 note indicates that the code excluded should never be used at the same time as the code above the Excludes1 note. An Excludes1 is used when two conditions cannot occur together, such as a congenital form versus an acquired form of the same condition.

Bleeding into the brain's ventricles.
About the P52 Code Range
These conditions involve bleeding inside a newborn’s skull that is not caused by an injury. The subdivisions distinguish where the bleeding occurs.
Bleeding in the brain’s ventricles is divided by grade. P52.0 and P52.1 identify grades 1 and 2. P52.2 groups grades 3 and 4, while P52.21 and P52.22 distinguish them. P52.3 does not specify a grade.
Other subdivisions identify bleeding within the brain, in the subarachnoid space, or in the cerebellum or posterior fossa. Separate codes describe other bleeding inside the skull and bleeding with no specified location.
