A disorder characterized by a dysrhythmia without discernible p waves and an irregular ventricular response due to multiple reentry circuits. The rhythm disturbance originates above the ventricles A supraventricular arrhythmia characterized by uncoordinated atrial myocardium activation due to multiple reentry circuits with consequent deterioration of atrial mechanical function. Instead of intermittently contracting, the atria quiver continuously in a chaotic pattern, causing a totally irregular, often tachycardia ventricular rate. On the ecg it is described by the replacement of consistent p waves by rapid oscillations or fibrillatory waves that vary in size, shape, and timing, associated with an irregular, frequently rapid ventricular response when atrioventricular conduction is intact A supraventricular arrhythmia characterized by uncoordinated atrial myocardium activation due to multiple reentry circuits with consequent deterioration of atrial mechanical function.

2 Confusion. Convert to ICD-10-CM: converts approximately to: 2015/16 ICD-10-CM I48.91 Unspecified atrial fibrillation. I agree. Being also a coder we dont code RVR. Just afib. Maybe have a discussion with docs on this for future documentation as to the PSVT vs Afib with RVR. I agree that they can be coded separately if the pt is having 2 separate types of dysrhythmias but if the only dysrhythmia is atrial fibrillation with a fast ventricular rate, you can't capture both codes for the same condition. Atrial fib (when its fast) is a type of PSVT but there are many other types. PSVT simply means the fast heart rate originates above the ventricles. For example, if the pt was having episodes of paroxysmal atrial tachycardia (this rhythm is regular but intermittently fast) and episodes of atrial fibrillation (which is an irregular rhythm), both could be coded. But in the instance as was originally described, only the atrial fib can be coded and you wouldn't see a physician document "PSVT" when the pt has a more specific diagnosis of rapid afib. ICD-9-CM Volume 2 Index entries containing back-references to : "I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me." Philippians 3:14. Just had a question. If a patient comes in with a secondary Dx of AFib with RVR are you able to use the RVR as a CC? We have had some discussion at length at our facility about this issue and from the clinical side, the RVR requires more interventions, meds, etc to treat whereas AFib by itself does not require the same interventions. When we put it through the encoder there is an option for Paroxysmal SVT which is what RVR is assumed to be. Any thoughts on this? Thank you for any input you might have. (ICD-9-CM , ) I48.0 Paroxysmal atrial fibrillation I48.1 Persistent atrial fibrillation I48.2 Chronic atrial fibrillation I48.3 Typical atrial flutter I48.4 Atypical atrial flutter I48.91* Unspecified atrial fibrillation I48.92* Unspecified atrial flutter. Atrial fibrillation Atrial fibrillation and flutter Atrial fibrillation with rapid ventricular response Atrial flutter Controlled atrial fibrillation Familial atrial fibrillation Lone atrial fibrillation Rapid atrial fibrillation Transient cerebral ischemia due to atrial fibrillation. Paroxysmal SVT, if and when present and documented, should be coded separately from Atrial Fibrillation - these are separate conditions and we are allowed to code these separately. Rebekah Foster RN CCDS Interim Manager of CDI Kaweah Delta Medical Center 400 W. Mineral King Visalia, CA (559) Thanks again! Great query, thank you Paul. Katy the CDI did not query while the pt was in house. MD documented Atrial fibrillation with RVR. Coder stated that because there is not a specific code to show uncontrolled or exacerbated, she had to code the chronic condition. Currently, there is not a code for 'acute on chronic' Atrial fibrillation, and it seems this is complicating the issue. If a patient with established A-Fib that is known and documented to be chronic experiences 'breakthrough' and an exacerbation of the chronic form of AFib, then indeed, that code should be used as the principal diagnosis, as per your statement, Renee. Permanent AF: joint decision by patient and clinician to cease further attempts to restore and/or maintain sinus rhythm 5). "Assumed to be" is a red flag considering our line of work:-) A-fib that is chronic and managed successfully in the home or hospital environment does not code to a CC. The opportunity to show severity in the acute care environment is in looking at the patient's overall condition. Did they come in in Acute on chronic systolic or diastolic HF? You can take the out of control A-fib as PDX and the HF for your MCC IF the afib is being specifically treated (dilt drip, etc). We do that here routinely because it does show the impact of the patients out-of-control chronic condition. Is there evidence of demand ischemia? Again, the A-fib can be PDX and you can capture the severity by coding the accompanying issues. Always interesting.

If both conditions were POA, equally treated, and equally responsible for admission, then you could code the PNA as pdx and I would certainly advocate doing so.

Question: What is the correct diagnosis code for atrial fibrillation with rapid ventricular response? SuperCoder.com MemberAnswer: [. ]. ThanQ Misty, U r right. just adding more clarification: Atrial Fibrillation with rapid ventricular response has to be coded as: unless the rapid ventricular response give rise to ventricular fibrillation Annotation Back-References In this context, annotation backreferences refer to codes that contain: Applicable To annotations, or Code Also annotations, or Code First annotations, or Excludes1 annotations, or Excludes2 annotations, or Includes annotations, or Note annotations, or Use Additional annotations : Decide Which Primary Code This Case Study Supports. It's always hard to decide if two conditions was treated equally. The AFib was more in the foreground while MD was trying to find a suitable medication to control the rate and rhythm. The pneumonia was quietly taking its course in the background. You know how that goes. Doesn't necessarily means pna was treated less, but definitely a harder sell. Paroxysmal SVT, if and when present and documented, should be coded separately from Atrial Fibrillation - these are separate conditions and we are allowed to code these separately.
