Newborn affected by breech delivery and extraction

This code identifies a newborn who experienced complications or was affected due to being delivered in a breech presentation, specifically when extraction techniques were employed. It signifies the impact of this particular delivery method on the neonate.

Apply this code when documentation clearly indicates a newborn's condition or health status is a direct result of a breech delivery that involved extraction. This includes scenarios where the neonate required specific interventions or monitoring due to the stresses or potential injuries associated with such a birth.

• Ensure the medical record explicitly states the delivery was breech and involved extraction, and that the newborn was affected.
• Do not use for newborns delivered breech without extraction, or for maternal conditions related to breech presentation.
• Always sequence this code as a secondary diagnosis, following the primary condition or symptom affecting the newborn.
