Sextuplets, some liveborn

This code indicates a multiple gestation pregnancy that resulted in the birth of six fetuses, where at least one of the sextuplets was born alive, but not all of them. It signifies a mixed outcome for the sextuplet delivery, with both live births and fetal losses occurring.

Use this code when documenting the outcome of a sextuplet pregnancy where some of the fetuses were liveborn and some were stillborn or resulted in fetal demise. This code is typically assigned to the mother's record after delivery.

• Always assign this code to the maternal record, not the infant's.
• Ensure documentation clearly specifies a sextuplet delivery with a mixed outcome (some live, some not).
• Do not use this code if all sextuplets were liveborn (use Z37.63) or if all were stillborn (use Z37.3).
