Newborn affected by complications of placenta, cord and membranes (P02)
The ICD-10 code P02 and its subcodes identify newborn infants affected by complications related to the placenta, umbilical cord, and fetal membranes. These codes are used to document specific conditions that impact newborn health due to maternal and perinatal factors involving these structures.
These codes cover a range of disorders, such as P02.0 for newborns affected by placenta previa (also called perinatal disorder due to placenta previa), and P02.1 for complications from placental separation and hemorrhage, which includes disorders like abruptio placentae and injury from surgical interventions. Codes like P02.29 address placental insufficiency and other placental abnormalities that can lead to neonatal polycythemia. Umbilical cord issues are captured in codes such as P02.4 for prolapsed cord and P02.5 for compression or entanglement of the cord, including true knots or cord-around-neck situations. Infection-related complications, such as chorioamnionitis affecting newborns, fall under P02.7. These detailed ICD-10 codes for newborn complications related to placenta, cord, and membranes support precise diagnosis, management, and billing for healthcare providers addressing these specialized perinatal conditions.

Instructional Notations
Code First
Certain conditions have both an underlying etiology and multiple body system manifestations due to the underlying etiology. For such conditions, the ICD-10-CM has a coding convention that requires the underlying condition be sequenced first followed by the manifestation. Wherever such a combination exists, there is a "use additional code" note at the etiology code, and a "code first" note at the manifestation code. These instructional notes indicate the proper sequencing order of the codes, etiology followed by manifestation.
- any current condition in newborn
Type 2 Excludes
A type 2 excludes note represents "Not included here". An excludes2 note indicates that the condition excluded is not part of the condition represented by the code, but a patient may have both conditions at the same time. When an Excludes2 note appears under a code, it is acceptable to use both the code and the excluded code together, when appropriate.
- encounter for observation of newborn for suspected diseases and conditions ruled out Z05
