FAQ

Idaho Subscriber Answer: For patent foramen ovale (PFO) and atrial septal defect (ASD) closure, you should assign 93580 (Percutaneous transcatheter closure of congenital interatrial communication i.e., Fontan ...

5 The linked systematic review finds that PFO closure prevents recurrent stroke relative to antiplatelet therapy, but possibly not relative to anticoagulants, and is associated with procedural complications and persistent atrial fibrillation.

ICD-10 code Q21. 12 for Patent foramen ovale is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Congenital malformations, deformations and chromosomal abnormalities .

†Patent foramen ovale (PFO) patients are assigned the same International Classification of Disease (ICD) codes (ICD-9: 745.5, ICD- 10: Q21. 1) as ostium secundum type atrial septal defects (ASD).

PFO means that you have a small opening between the right and left atria of the heart. This opening normally closes soon after birth. But in many people, it does not. PFO itself usually does not cause any symptoms. PFO can occasionally result in complications.

However, although clinically very different, atrial septal defects (ASD) and patent foramen ovale (PFO) share a single diagnostic code (ICD-9: 745.5, ICD-10: Q21. 1).

How is patent foramen ovale treated? Antiplatelet medicines such as aspirin, to help prevent blood clots. Anticoagulant medicines such as warfarin, to help prevent blood clots. Closure of the PFO with a catheter-based procedure. Closure of the PFO during heart surgery.

Treatment. This condition is not treated unless there are other heart problems, symptoms, or if the person had a stroke caused by a blood clot to the brain. Treatment most often requires a procedure called cardiac catheterization, which is performed by a trained cardiologist to permanently seal the PFO.

The procedure involves making a small incision, typically in the groin, and inserting a small tube, called a catheter or sheath, to navigate through the blood vessels to the procedure site within the heart. In patients with a PFO, the doctor guides the closure device through the catheter or sheath to seal the PFO.

Patent foramen ovale (PFO) is a hole between your heart's upper chambers. The foramen ovale is a hole in the wall between the left and right atria of every human fetus.This hole allows blood to bypass the fetal lungs. The healthcare provider inserts the catheter through a blood vessel in the groin and guides it to the PFO. Most people with a patent foramen ovale don't need treatment. Patent foramen ovale closure is a procedure to close a hole in the heart. We use minimally invasive approaches to treat PFO without open-chest surgery. Most PFOs need no treatment. People who have no risk factors for stroke or any history of traveling blood clots often don't get treatment. Your healthcare provider may want to treat your PFO if you have had problems from these traveling blood clots, like stroke.
