Pressr collapse of lung d/t anesth during preg, second tri

This code signifies a pneumothorax or atelectasis caused by anesthetic complications during the second trimester of pregnancy. It specifically refers to lung collapse resulting from positive pressure ventilation or other anesthetic-related factors.

Apply this code when documentation clearly indicates a pregnant patient in her second trimester experienced a pressure-induced lung collapse directly attributable to anesthesia administration. This typically occurs during surgical procedures or interventions requiring general anesthesia.

• Ensure documentation specifies "pressure collapse" and links it directly to anesthesia.
• Verify the trimester of pregnancy is explicitly stated as the second trimester.
• Consider sequencing with codes for the specific anesthetic complication (e.g., T88.5X- for other complications of anesthesia) if applicable, and the underlying reason for the anesthesia.
