*Some iatrogenic codes are self-explanatory for what occurred. For example '''[[Iatrogenic, air embolism, as complication of line/infusion/transfusion/injection]]'''. But for others, such as '''[[Iatrogenic, puncture or laceration, related to a procedure or surgery NOS]]''' it's not clear what happened, i.e. what was iatrogenically injured.

**In these latter cases, with just one exception, DO NOT also code a trauma code for what was iatrogenically injured. This is because iatrogenic injuries are technically not considered to be traumas.

***that one exception is you SHOULD code [[Rib, fracture, injury/trauma]] in the context of [[CPR, cardiac resuscitation]].

**Instead, combine the iatrogenic code with another ICD10 ~~code indicating the body part involved.~~

***e.g. for iatrogenic laceration of a pulmonary artery, combine: '''[[Iatrogenic~~, puncture or laceration, related to a procedure or surgery NOS]]''' with '''[[Disorder of pulmonary vessels, NOS]]'''.~~
