T36.1X2S
ICD-10-CMPoisoning by cephalosporins and other beta-lactam antibiotics, intentional self-harm, sequela
This code signifies a long-term consequence or late effect resulting from an intentional self-harm poisoning event involving cephalosporin or other beta-lactam antibiotics. It indicates that the acute phase of the poisoning has passed, and the patient is now experiencing residual health problems directly attributable to that past event.
Apply this code when documenting a patient presenting with chronic organ damage, neurological deficits, or other lasting complications that are definitively linked to a prior self-inflicted overdose of cephalosporin or beta-lactam antibiotics. This code is appropriate for follow-up encounters addressing these persistent issues, not the initial acute poisoning.
