In simple words: Partial placenta previa means the placenta is covering part of the mother's cervix.This causes bleeding.

This code signifies partial placental previa, a condition where the placenta partially covers the cervix, accompanied by hemorrhage (bleeding).

Example 1: A 32-year-old pregnant woman at 28 weeks gestation presents with vaginal bleeding. Ultrasound reveals a partial placenta previa with moderate bleeding.The physician manages the bleeding and orders bed rest., A 25-year-old pregnant woman at 36 weeks gestation is admitted to the hospital due to heavy vaginal bleeding. Diagnosis is confirmed as partial placenta previa with significant hemorrhage requiring blood transfusion and emergency cesarean section., A 38-year-old pregnant woman at 20 weeks gestation experiences minor vaginal spotting.Ultrasound reveals a partial placenta previa without active bleeding. The physician monitors the condition closely and advises bed rest and restricted activity.

Complete obstetrical history, including prior pregnancies and deliveries. Detailed description of bleeding episode (onset, duration, amount, character). Results of ultrasound examination specifying the location and extent of placental implantation. Hemoglobin and hematocrit levels.Management plan and response to treatment.

** Always confirm the diagnosis with appropriate imaging studies (ultrasound).The severity of hemorrhage significantly impacts the management and coding.
