Stem cells transplant status

This code indicates that a patient has a history of receiving a stem cell transplant, regardless of the type (autologous, allogeneic, syngeneic). It signifies the presence of a transplanted stem cell graft within the patient's body, which may be relevant for ongoing care and potential complications.

This code is used when documenting a patient's past medical history to indicate they have undergone a stem cell transplant. It is appropriate for follow-up visits, admissions for transplant-related complications, or when the transplant status impacts current treatment decisions.

• Always assign this code as a secondary diagnosis, as it describes a historical event rather than an active disease.
• Do not use this code for patients currently undergoing the stem cell transplant procedure; use codes for the specific encounter and procedure.
• Consider additional codes for any complications or conditions related to the stem cell transplant, such as graft-versus-host disease or post-transplant infections.
