KB2A.2

ICD-11 MMS 2026-01

Mixed neonatal apnoea

Description

A combination of central apnoea and obstructive apnoea. Most apnoea of prematurity is of the mixed variety, and most often resolves by 36 weeks of age.

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.
