Poisoning by immunoglobulin, assault, sequela

This code signifies a long-term health problem or complication resulting from a previous poisoning by an immunoglobulin, where the poisoning was intentionally inflicted by another person. It indicates that the patient is experiencing residual effects or conditions directly attributable to this past assault.

Apply this code when documenting a current condition or sequela that is a direct consequence of a prior assault involving immunoglobulin poisoning. This would be used in follow-up encounters for patients experiencing chronic issues, organ damage, or other lasting effects from such an event.

• Always sequence this code after the code for the specific sequela or current condition being treated.
• Ensure documentation clearly links the current condition to the past immunoglobulin poisoning and specifies the assaultive nature.
• Do not use for acute poisoning; this code is exclusively for sequelae.
