93.59 — Other immobilization, pressure, and attention to wound
About ICD-9-CM 93.59
93.59 is an ICD-9-CM procedure code for other immobilization, pressure, and attention to wound. ICD-9-CM was retired for U.S. claims on October 1, 2015, when ICD-10-PCS took over.
The CMS General Equivalence Mappings translate it to 36 ICD-10-PCS codes, such as 0NH035Z (Insertion of External Fixation Device into Skull, Percutaneous Approach), 2W10X7Z (Compression of Head using Intermittent Pressure Device) and 2W11X7Z (Compression of Face using Intermittent Pressure Device). All of these are approximate matches, so review the record to pick the right one.
