T46.902S
ICD-10-CMPoisoning by unspecified agents primarily affecting the cardiovascular system, intentional self-harm, sequela
This code signifies a long-term consequence or residual effect stemming from an intentional self-poisoning event involving an unspecified substance that primarily impacted the cardiovascular system. This means the patient experienced a previous overdose or toxic exposure, and now presents with a chronic or permanent condition directly attributable to that past event. The original poisoning was a deliberate act of self-harm.
Apply this code when documenting a current, ongoing health problem that is a direct result of a past intentional self-poisoning by a cardiovascular agent, where the specific substance is unknown. This is appropriate for follow-up encounters addressing chronic cardiac arrhythmias, cardiomyopathy, or other persistent cardiovascular damage clearly linked to a prior self-inflicted overdose.
