Maternal care for prolapse of gravid uterus, unsp trimester

This code signifies medical attention provided to a pregnant patient experiencing a prolapse of the uterus. This condition involves the uterus descending from its normal position into the vaginal canal during pregnancy, with the specific trimester of gestation not documented.

Assign this code when the medical record clearly indicates maternal care for a uterine prolapse during pregnancy, and the documentation does not specify the trimester. This code is appropriate when the physician's notes describe the diagnosis and management of the prolapse without further trimester detail.

• Ensure the documentation explicitly states "gravid uterus" or "pregnant" in conjunction with the prolapse.
• If the trimester is documented, select a more specific code from the O34.52 series.
• Do not use this code for postpartum uterine prolapse; refer to codes in the N81 category for non-obstetric prolapse.
