About T82.59
T82.59 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for other mechanical complication of other cardiac and vascular devices and implants. It belongs to category T82 (complications of cardiac and vascular prosthetic devices, implants and grafts), block T80-T88 (complications of surgical and medical care, not elsewhere classified) and chapter 19 (injury, poisoning and certain other consequences of external causes). It is a header code, so it can't be reported by itself; one of its 8 subcodes must be used instead.
Within T82.5, choose T82.59 (Other mechanical complication of other cardiac and vascular devices and implants) only when documentation doesn't support a more specific option: breakdown (mechanical) of other cardiac and vascular devices and implants (T82.51), displacement of other cardiac and vascular devices and implants (T82.52) and leakage of other cardiac and vascular devices and implants (T82.53).
Codes in this range require a 7th character: A for initial encounter, D for subsequent encounter and S for sequela. Use placeholder "X" characters to fill any empty positions before the 7th character.
It has been part of ICD-10-CM since the code set took effect on October 1, 2015 and hasn't changed since.
