ICD-11 MMS 2026-01

Disturbances of sodium balance of newborn

Description

A paediatric condition characterised by abnormally high or low levels of sodium in the blood in a newborn, when the normal range is defined as 135 to 150 mEq/L.

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.
