Clinical notes

Excludes2 (not included here)

An Excludes2 note means the excluded condition is not part of this one, but a patient can have both at the same time — in that case both codes may be reported together.

  • acute pulmonary insufficiency following thoracic surgery (J95.1)
  • postprocedural subglottic stenosis (J95.5)

Use additional code

This code represents an underlying condition. When a related manifestation is also present, coding convention calls for an additional code to be listed after this one.

  • code to identify disorder, such as:
  • aspiration pneumonia (J69.-)
  • bacterial or viral pneumonia (J12-J18)
