O65.9 is a billable ICD code used to specify a diagnosis of obstructed labor due to maternal pelvic abnormality, unspecified. A 'billable code' is detailed enough to be used to specify a medical diagnosis.


The ICD code O65 is used to code Obstructed labour

Obstructed labour, also known as labour dystocia, is when, even though the uterus is contracting normally, the baby does not exit the pelvis during childbirth due to being physically blocked. Complications for the baby include not getting enough oxygen which may result in death. It increases the risk of the mother getting an infection, having uterine rupture, or having post-partum bleeding. Long term complications for the mother include obstetrical fistula. Obstructed labour is said to result in prolonged labour, when the active phase of labour is longer than twelve hours.
