ICD code R94.39 is used to indicate an abnormal result from a cardiovascular function study that does not fit other specific categories.
ICD code R94.39 is an abnormal result from a cardiovascular function study that does not fit into more specific categories, indicating that a test of heart or blood vessel function showed unusual findings.
1. Patient has undergone a cardiovascular function study (e.g., echocardiogram, stress test, cardiac MRI, or other specialized cardiovascular diagnostic test).
2. The results of the study are reported as abnormal, but do not fit into more specific abnormal findings already classified elsewhere.
3. The abnormality is not attributable to a previously diagnosed or clearly defined cardiovascular condition.
4. The abnormal result is clinically significant and requires further evaluation, monitoring, or intervention.
5. The abnormal finding is documented in the patient’s medical record by the interpreting provider.
