Injury, poisoning and certain other consequences of external causes
ICD-10 code S00-T88 for Injury, poisoning and certain other consequences of external causes
Note: Use secondary code(s) from Chapter 20, External causes of morbidity, to indicate cause of injury. Codes within the T section that include the external cause do not require an additional external cause code
Use additional code to identify any retained foreign body, if applicable (Z18.-)
Note: The chapter uses the S-section for coding different types of injuries related to single body regions and the T-section to cover injuries to unspecified body regions as well as poisoning and certain other consequences of external causes.
