X74.0Intentional self-harm by gas, air or spring-operated guns

X74.0 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for intentional self-harm by gas, air or spring-operated guns. It belongs to category X74 (intentional self-harm by other and unspecified firearm and gun discharge), block X71-X83 (intentional self-harm) and chapter 20 (external causes of morbidity). It is a header code, so it can't be reported by itself; one of its 3 subcodes must be used instead.

Within X74 (intentional self-harm by other and unspecified firearm and gun discharge), X74.0 is specifically for intentional self-harm by gas, air or spring-operated guns. Related codes cover other firearm discharge (X74.8) and unspecified firearm discharge (X74.9).

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.
