| ICD-10 from 2011 - 2016

ICD Code I82 is a non-billable code. To code a diagnosis of this type, you must use one of the thirteen child codes of I82 that describes the diagnosis 'other venous embolism and thrombosis' in more detail.


The ICD code I82 is used to code Thrombosis

Thrombosis (Greek: θρόμβωσις) is the formation of a blood clot (thrombus; Greek: θρόμβος) inside a blood vessel, obstructing the flow of blood through the circulatory system. When a blood vessel is injured, the body uses platelets (thrombocytes) and fibrin to form a blood clot to prevent blood loss. Even when a blood vessel is not injured, blood clots may form in the body under certain conditions. A clot that breaks free and begins to travel around the body is known as an embolus.
