Description

This course describes the time immediately before birth (the 20th to 28th week of gestation) through the first 28 days after birth. Codes in this chapter are never used on the mother’s record. This chapter has several codes that can be used when a newborn is observed for a suspected condition, but after study that condition is ruled out.

  • Define different types of neonatal aspiration
  • Determine the categories of codes to use for newborn sepsis
  • Assign codes for neonatal jaundice
