*This code includes disorders of pulmonary arteries, pulmonary veins, or pulmonary capillaries that are '''not specified in other codes'''. | |||
* | *So it includes: | ||
**ruptures (check for other codes first) | |||
**aneurysms (eg pulmonary artery aneurysm) | |||
**A-V fistula (arteriovenous fistula) | |||
== Alternate ICD10s to consider coding instead == | *BUT it does NOT include: | ||
**pulmonary embolism or thromboembolism of any type/cause ([[Pulmonary embolism (thromboembolism), acute]], [[Pulmonary embolism (thromboembolism), septic]], [[Pulmonary embolism (thromboembolism), chronic]]) | |||
**pulmonary hypertension of any type/cause ([[Pulmonary hypertension, primary (PPH)]], [[Pulmonary hypertension, NOS]], [[Pulmonary hypertension, secondary (any cause)]]) | |||
**[[Cor pulmonale (right heart failure due to lung disease without left heart failure)]] | |||
**pulmonary arteriovenous malformation ([[Arteriovenous malformation (AVM)]]) | |||
*Pulmonary vascular disease describes any process that disturbs the blood flow between the heart and the lungs. Blood travels from the right side of the heart to the lungs through pulmonary arteries. The vessels then split into smaller conduits and eventually into capillary beds where oxygen is absorbed and carbon dioxide is released. The pulmonary vein then returns the freshly oxygenated blood to the left side of the heart from where it is pumped throughout the rest of the body. Any process that disrupts the balance along this pathway defines PVD. For example, people with [[Arteriovenous malformation (AVM)]] of the lungs, there is an abnormal communication between arteries and veins. The abnormal communication does not allow good oxygen-carbon dioxide exchanges and behaves like [[Pulmonary Hypertension]]. Nonetheless, pulmonary vascular disorder also includes acute ([[Pulmonary embolism (thromboembolism), acute]]) and chronic ([[Pulmonary embolism (thromboembolism), chronic]]) thromboembolic disease (blood clot) (how about [[Pulmonary embolism (thromboembolism), septic]]?), [[Pulmonary Hypertension]], and pulmonary veno-occlusive disease. It can present as an acute process, such as blood clots traveling to the lungs, or as a slow progressing disease like [[Arteriovenous malformation (AVM)|AVM]] revealing itself over months and years. | |||
