Matern care for disproprtn due to hydrocephalic fetus, fts1

This code signifies maternal care provided when the size of the fetus's hydrocephalic head is disproportionate to the mother's pelvis, leading to potential complications during labor and delivery. It specifically identifies this disproportion as pertaining to the first fetus in a multiple gestation pregnancy or the only fetus in a singleton pregnancy.

Apply this code when documentation indicates a diagnosis of cephalopelvic disproportion (CPD) or obstructed labor due to fetal hydrocephalus. The physician's notes should clearly state the presence of fetal hydrocephalus and its impact on the maternal pelvis, necessitating specialized care.

• Ensure documentation specifies "fetus 1" or a singleton pregnancy when using this code.
• Do not confuse this with other types of fetal disproportion (e.g., due to large fetus, other fetal anomaly).
• Code any associated maternal complications (e.g., obstructed labor, failed trial of labor) separately.
