Oth cardiac comp of anesth during preg, second trimester

This code signifies any cardiac complication, other than cardiac arrest or arrhythmia, that arises as a direct result of anesthesia administered during the second trimester of pregnancy. These complications can include conditions such as myocardial infarction, heart failure, or other acute cardiac events directly attributable to the anesthetic agent or procedure.

Use this code when documentation clearly links a cardiac complication (excluding arrest or arrhythmia) to anesthesia administered during the 14th to 27th week of gestation. This code requires explicit physician documentation stating the cardiac event was a complication of anesthesia and occurred in the second trimester.

• Always sequence this code after the primary obstetric code (e.g., O09.-, O10.-).
• Ensure documentation specifies "second trimester" and explicitly links the cardiac event to anesthesia.
• Distinguish from O29.11- (cardiac arrest) and O29.12- (cardiac arrhythmia) due to anesthesia.
