ICD Code G47.39

ICD code G47.39 is other types of sleep apnea that do not fall under central or obstructive sleep apnea, including mixed or unspecified forms.

1. Patient exhibits symptoms of disrupted sleep patterns not attributable to obstructive or central sleep apnea.

2. Clinical evaluation identifies abnormal breathing during sleep, such as periodic cessation or reduction of airflow, that does not meet criteria for other specified types of sleep apnea.

3. Polysomnography or other sleep studies confirm the presence of sleep-related breathing disturbances not classified under obstructive or central categories.

4. Symptoms may include excessive daytime sleepiness, unrefreshing sleep, loud snoring, witnessed apneas, or nocturnal gasping/choking episodes.

5. Other causes of sleep-disordered breathing, such as upper airway resistance syndrome or Cheyne-Stokes respiration, have been ruled out.

6. The sleep disorder is not better explained by another medical, neurological, or psychiatric condition.
