Poisoning by unsp fibrin-affct drugs, self-harm, init

This code signifies a patient presenting with an adverse reaction or overdose due to an unspecified medication that impacts the body's ability to break down blood clots. The poisoning is determined to be intentionally self-inflicted, indicating a suicide attempt or deliberate self-harm. This specific code is used for the initial phase of treatment for this event.

Apply this code when documentation clearly indicates a patient has ingested or administered an unknown fibrinolysis-affecting drug with the intent to harm themselves. This is appropriate for the emergency department visit or initial inpatient admission directly related to the self-poisoning. It should be used when the specific drug is not identified in the medical record.

• Ensure documentation explicitly states "intentional self-harm" or "suicide attempt."
• Only use for the initial encounter for treatment of the poisoning.
• Confirm the drug is unspecified; if known, a more specific code from T45.6 should be used.
