Toxic effect of 2-Propanol, accidental, sequela

This code signifies the long-term or residual effects resulting from an accidental exposure to 2-Propanol (isopropyl alcohol). These sequelae are persistent health issues that manifest after the acute phase of poisoning has resolved.

Apply this code when documenting conditions such as chronic neurological damage, persistent organ dysfunction (e.g., kidney or liver impairment), or other lasting complications directly attributable to an unintentional 2-Propanol overdose. This code is used after the initial acute toxic event has passed and the patient is being treated for the chronic consequences.

• Always use this code as a secondary diagnosis, following the code for the specific sequela (e.g., chronic kidney disease).
• Ensure documentation clearly links the current condition to the past 2-Propanol exposure.
• Verify the "S" seventh character is appropriate for sequela, indicating a late effect.
