The ICD code P37 is used to code Neonatal infection

neonatal infections are infections of the neonate (newborn) during the neonatal period or first four weeks of birth. neonatal infections may be contracted by transplacental transfer in utero, in the birth canal during delivery (perinatal), or by other means after birth. some neonatal infections are apparent soon after delivery, while others may develop postpartum within the first week or month. some infections acquired in the neonatal period do not become apparent until much later such as hiv, hepatitis b and malaria.

Other congenital infections specific to the perinatal period (approximate match)

This is the official approximate match mapping between ICD9 and ICD10, as provided by the General Equivalency mapping crosswalk. This means that while there is no exact mapping between this ICD10 code P37.1 and a single ICD9 code, 771.2 is an approximate match for comparison and conversion purposes.
