Unsp infection of urinary tract in pregnancy, unsp trimester

This code signifies a urinary tract infection (UTI) occurring during pregnancy where the specific type of infection (e.g., cystitis, pyelonephritis) is not documented, and the trimester of pregnancy is also unstated. It indicates the presence of a bacterial infection within the urinary system of a pregnant patient without further specification.

This code is appropriate when the medical record clearly states "urinary tract infection in pregnancy" but lacks details regarding the specific anatomical site of the infection or the trimester. It should be used when documentation confirms a UTI in a pregnant patient, but further specificity is unavailable or not documented by the provider.

• Avoid using this code if the documentation specifies the type of UTI (e.g., cystitis, pyelonephritis) or the trimester of pregnancy.
• Query the provider for more specific documentation regarding the type of UTI and the trimester if possible.
• This code is a "catch-all" for UTIs in pregnancy when specificity is lacking; strive for more precise codes when documentation permits.
