N31.1
ICD-10-CMThis code describes a type of neurogenic bladder dysfunction characterized by involuntary bladder contractions and incomplete emptying due to a neurological impairment affecting the reflex arc controlling bladder function. It results in an uninhibited bladder that contracts reflexively, often leading to urinary incontinence and potential hydronephrosis or recurrent infections.
Apply this code when documentation specifies a "reflex neuropathic bladder" or "uninhibited neurogenic bladder" not attributable to a specific spinal cord injury or other classified neurological condition. It is appropriate when the neurological cause is generalized or not precisely defined beyond its impact on bladder reflexes.
