T50.A21A
ICD-10-CMPoisoning by mixed bacterial vaccines without a pertussis component, accidental (unintentional), initial encounter
This code signifies an adverse reaction or poisoning resulting from the accidental administration of a multi-component bacterial vaccine that specifically excludes a pertussis component. This could involve an overdose, wrong vaccine, or other error leading to systemic effects beyond expected vaccine side effects.
Apply this code when a patient presents with symptoms of poisoning or an adverse event due to an unintentional exposure to a mixed bacterial vaccine (e.g., tetanus-diphtheria without pertussis) and it is the initial encounter for this specific poisoning. This would include situations like a medication error where the wrong vaccine was given or an excessive dose.
