About the P74 Code Range
Newborns can have temporary disturbances in sodium, potassium, or chlorine balance, as well as other metabolic disturbances and dehydration.
P74.2 groups sodium disturbances, and P74.3 groups potassium disturbances. Each splits into high and low levels. P74.4 groups other temporary electrolyte disturbances, including chlorine disturbances that also split into high and low levels.
The remaining subdivisions distinguish dehydration, late metabolic acid imbalance, named temporary metabolic disturbances, other metabolic disturbances, and an unspecified metabolic disturbance.
