About 0WWD03Z

0WWD03Z is the ICD-10-PCS code for a revision procedure on the pericardial cavity using an open approach with infusion device. In ICD-10-PCS, revision means correcting, to the extent possible, a portion of a malfunctioning device or the position of a displaced device.

In plain terms, this corresponds to Pericardiotomy, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (37.12).

For a different body part, codes include 0WW003Z (head), 0WW103Z (cranial cavity), 0WW203Z (face), 0WW403Z (upper jaw), 0WW503Z (lower jaw), 0WW603Z (neck) and 15 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0WWD33Z (percutaneous), 0WWD43Z (percutaneous endoscopic) and 0WWDX3Z (external).

With a different device, use 0WWD00Z (drainage device), 0WWD01Z (radioactive element) and 0WWD0YZ (other device).

It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 163 (Major Chest Procedures with MCC), DRG 164 (Major Chest Procedures with CC), DRG 165 (Major Chest Procedures without CC/MCC), DRG 270 (Other Major Cardiovascular Procedures with MCC), DRG 271 (Other Major Cardiovascular Procedures with CC) and DRG 272 (Other Major Cardiovascular Procedures without CC/MCC), under the surgical categories “Major Chest Procedures”, “Other Major Cardiovascular Procedures”, “Lymphoma and Leukemia with Major O.R.
