ICD-10-CM Code T58.92XA
Toxic effect of carbon monoxide from unspecified source, intentional self-harm, initial encounter
Billable Code
Billable codes are sufficient justification for admission to an acute care hospital when used a principal diagnosis.T58.92XA is a billable ICD code used to specify a diagnosis of toxic effect of carbon monoxide from unspecified source, intentional self-harm, initial encounter. A 'billable code' is detailed enough to be used to specify a medical diagnosis.
The ICD code T58 is used to code Carbon monoxide poisoning
Carbon monoxide poisoning occurs after too much inhalation of carbon monoxide (CO). Carbon monoxide is a toxic (poisonous) gas, but, being colorless, odorless, tasteless, and initially non-irritating, it is very difficult for people to detect. Carbon monoxide is a product of incomplete combustion of organic matter due to insufficient oxygen supply to enable complete oxidation to carbon dioxide (CO2). It is often produced in domestic or industrial settings by motor vehicles that run on gasoline, diesel, methane, or other carbon-based fuels and from tools, gas heaters, and cooking equipment that are powered by carbon-based fuels such as propane, butane and charcoal. Exposure at 100 ppm or greater can be dangerous to human health.

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 T58.92XA and a single ICD9 code, E952.1 is an approximate match for comparison and conversion purposes.
