ICD-9-CM diagnosis code (retired)
975.8 — Poisoning by other and unspecified respiratory drugs
About ICD-9-CM 975.8
975.8 is an ICD-9-CM diagnosis code for poisoning by other and unspecified respiratory drugs. ICD-9-CM was retired for U.S. claims on October 1, 2015, when ICD-10-CM took over.
The CMS General Equivalence Mappings translate it to 12 ICD-10-CM codes, such as T41.5X1A (Poisoning by therapeutic gases, accidental (unintentional), initial encounter), T41.5X2A (Poisoning by therapeutic gases, intentional self-harm, initial encounter) and T41.5X3A (Poisoning by therapeutic gases, assault, initial encounter). All of these are approximate matches, so review the record to pick the right one.
