Use this DX code only if hypotension is "severe and significant" enough to be treated with volume and or inotropes Do not use this DX code together with any of the other shock or post op low BP codes we already use.
- For a list of specific "shock" diagnosis codes we use go to: Category Shock
- Note From Dr. Kumar: I would not routinely code “distributive” shock as septic shock. I would code as “other” shock if we have such a code, otherwise use Hypotension NYD .Trish Ostryzniuk 18:21, 2012 June 11 (CDT)
- don't code orthostatic hypotension. We are not tracking this symptom. Trish Ostryzniuk 15:50, 2012 June 18 (CDT)
