About the P50 Code Range
A newborn may be affected by blood loss in the womb. This category sits among newborn bleeding and blood disorders.
The subdivisions distinguish where the blood loss comes from or goes. Some identify the placenta or a cord as the source. Others describe bleeding into a co-twin or the mother's circulation. Separate subdivisions cover other and unspecified blood loss.
