Failed attempted termination of pregnancy w oth comp

This code signifies a situation where an attempted termination of pregnancy was unsuccessful, and the patient subsequently experienced complications not specifically classified elsewhere. It indicates that the intended procedure did not achieve its goal of ending the pregnancy, and additional medical issues arose as a direct result.

Use this code when documentation clearly states a failed attempt at pregnancy termination and details other associated complications, such as infection, hemorrhage, or injury to reproductive organs, that are not captured by more specific O07 subcategories. The physician's notes should explicitly mention both the failed attempt and the resulting complications.

• Ensure documentation specifies "failed" attempt and "other" complications; avoid using for successful terminations with complications.
• Always sequence this code as the primary diagnosis when it represents the reason for the encounter.
• Do not confuse with O07.0 (failed attempted termination with hemorrhage) or O07.1 (failed attempted termination with infection), as this code is for other complications.
