ICD-11 MMS 2026-01

Fetus or newborn affected by noxious influences transmitted via placenta or breast milk

Description

A group of conditions characterised by findings in the fetus or newborn due to the transmission of any harmful or poisonous substance to the fetus or newborn via the placenta or in breast milk.

Coding note

These codes are for use when the listed maternal conditions are specified as the cause of confirmed morbidity or potential morbidity which have their origin in the perinatal period (before birth through the first 28 days after birth). Use additional code to identify the condition in the fetus or newborn.

Coding note from above levels

Conditions arising in the perinatal period, even though death or morbidity occurs later, should, as far as possible, be coded to chapter 19, which takes precedence over chapters containing codes for diseases by their anatomical site. For children less than 28 days old, assume that a reported condition developed in the perinatal period, unless the duration is stated and the onset was after the first completed week of life.
