Other multiple births, all stillborn

This diagnosis code signifies a multiple gestation where all fetuses were stillborn, and the specific type of multiple birth (e.g., twins, triplets) is not otherwise classified or specified. It indicates a complete fetal demise of all products of conception in a multifetal pregnancy.

This code is appropriate when documentation confirms a multiple pregnancy where all fetuses were stillborn, and a more specific code for the type of multiple birth (e.g., twins, triplets) is not available or applicable. It would be used in cases where the number of fetuses is known to be greater than one, but the exact count or type isn't detailed enough for a more specific Z37.x code.

• Ensure documentation clearly states "multiple births" and "all stillborn" for appropriate code assignment.
• Do not use if any fetus was liveborn; refer to other Z37 codes for liveborn outcomes.
• Always sequence this code after the primary obstetric complication or condition that led to the stillbirths.
