ICD code I45.6 is used to identify pre-excitation syndrome, a heart condition where electrical signals cause the heart to beat abnormally fast.
ICD code I45.6 is pre-excitation syndrome, a heart condition where electrical impulses bypass the normal pathway, leading to episodes of rapid heartbeat.
1. Presence of documented episodes of supraventricular tachycardia or arrhythmias.
2. Electrocardiogram (ECG) findings demonstrating a short PR interval.
3. Evidence of a delta wave on ECG, indicating early ventricular depolarization.
4. Symptoms such as palpitations, dizziness, syncope, or chest discomfort associated with arrhythmias.
5. Exclusion of other causes of arrhythmia or abnormal ECG findings.
6. Confirmation of accessory pathway conduction via electrophysiological studies, if indicated.
Relevant CPT codes that may be used to treat ICD code I45.6 include:
- 93609: Intraventricular and/or intra-atrial mapping of tachycardia site(s) with catheter manipulation
- 93620: Comprehensive electrophysiologic evaluation including insertion and repositioning of multiple electrode catheters with induction or attempted induction of arrhythmia
- 93621: Comprehensive electrophysiologic evaluation with left atrial recording
- 93650: Ablation of atrioventricular node function, including mapping, when performed
- 93653: Comprehensive electrophysiologic evaluation including transseptal catheterization, with ablation of arrhythmogenic focus
- 93000: Electrocardiogram, routine ECG with at least 12 leads; with interpretation and report
- 93224: External electrocardiographic recording up to 48 hours by continuous rhythm recording and storage; includes recording, scanning analysis with report, review and interpretation
These CPT codes are commonly associated with the treatment and management of ICD code I45.6.
