Normocytic anemia is defined when the Diagnosis [ ] To aid with determining the underlying cause of the normocytic anemia, a lab test is done on Causes [ ] The issue is thought of as representing any of the following: • An acute loss of blood of a substantial volume; • a decreased production of normal-sized red blood cells (e.g., • an increased production of • an increased destruction or loss of red blood cells (e.g., • an uncompensated increase in • a B2 ( • a B6 ( • or a mixture of conditions producing Blood loss, suppressed production of RBCs or hemolysis represent most cases of normocytic anemia. In blood loss, morphologic findings are generally unremarkable, except after 12 to 24 hrs where Treatment [ ] Treatment will depend on the cause of the normocytic anemia.

Verywell / Jessica Olah What Are the Symptoms of Normocytic Anemia? The effects of normocytic anemia can range from mild to severe, depending on the red blood cell count and other medical conditions that can add to your symptoms. You may experience symptoms gradually over time if the anemia is slowly progressive, but the symptoms can worsen abruptly if the anemia develops rapidly. If you are at a known risk of anemia, your doctor may order blood tests to monitor your red blood cell count. How Is Normocytic Anemia Diagnosed? The diagnosis of normocytic anemia is established with blood tests. If you have a serious injury with a substantial amount of blood loss, you would have a • Electrolyte tests: This blood test may show signs of systemic diseases, such as kidney disease. • Liver function tests: These blood tests may show signs of liver disease. • Urinalysis (urine test): This test can show signs of blood or infection in your urine. • Stool sample or rectal examination: These tests can detect bleeding in the gastrointestinal tract. • A cervical examination: This test would be considered for people with a uterus (womb) if there is concern about excessive uterine bleeding. • Imaging tests: Imaging tests, such as an abdominal computerized tomography (CT) scan, may show tumors or other structural problems or sources of bleeding. What Are the Treatments for Normocytic Anemia? Treatment of normocytic anemia can include controlling blood loss, treatment of underlying disease, blo...

Normocytic anemia happens when you have fewer red blood cells than normal, and those blood cells don’t have the normal amount of hemoglobin. Most people develop normocytic anemia because they have an underlying chronic illness. Healthcare providers treat normocytic anemia by treating the underlying illness. Overview What is normocytic anemia? Normocytic anemia happens when you have fewer Healthcare providers may refer to normocytic anemia as a medical condition or as a sign of other conditions. Sometimes, people have normocytic anemia because they have an inherited condition. Most of the time, people develop normocytic anemia because they have an underlying chronic illness. Healthcare providers treat normocytic anemia by treating the underlying condition. Symptoms and Causes What causes normocytic anemia? Three main things cause normocytic anemia. You may develop normocytic anemia if: • You’re losing blood. There are many reasons why you may lose blood, such as being injured or having a medical condition that causes internal bleeding. You can develop normocytic anemia if you have heavy periods. • You have a medical condition that affects your body’s ability to make enough red blood cells (red blood cell production.) • You have a medical condition that causes your red blood cells to break down faster than normal. This is hemolysis. What medical conditions affect red blood cell production? Your bone marrow makes stem cells that mature and become red blood cells, along with w...

Unspecified diagnosis codes like D64.9 are acceptable when clinical information is unknown or not available about a particular condition. Although a more specific code is preferable, unspecified codes should be used when such codes most accurately reflect what is known about a patient's condition. Specific diagnosis codes should not be used if not supported by the patient's medical record. Approximate Synonyms The following clinical terms are approximate synonyms or lay terms that might be used to identify the correct diagnosis code: • Anemia • Anemia caused by zidovudine • Anemia co-occurrent and due to chronic kidney disease stage 3 • Anemia co-occurrent with human immunodeficiency virus infection • Anemia due to multiple mechanisms • Anemia due to unknown mechanism • Anemia ...

Understand the many nuances of this blood disease to code it correctly. Anemia, according to Mayo Clinic, is a condition in which the body isn’t making enough healthy red blood cells to carry adequate oxygen to the body’s tissues. That’s why common manifestations are feelings of weakness and tiredness. There are many types of ICD-10-CM chapter-specific guidelines (Chapter 3: Diseases of Blood/Blood-Forming Organs & Disorders Involving Immune Mechanism) are currently reserved for future guideline expansion. However, you can find anemia coding guidelines in other chapters because of anemia’s overlap with other conditions. Knowing where to look for these guidelines is key to coding properly. Anemia Associated With Malignancy Code sequencing matters when the admission/encounter is for management of anemia associated with Example: Mr. Doe is admitted due to anemia secondary to his prostate cancer, for which he is undergoing oral chemotherapy. Patient has PMH of COPD, CKD III, HTN.
