4A0074Z ICD-10-PCS Code: Measurement of Central Nervous Electrical Activity, Via Natural or Artificial Opening
Measurement of Central Nervous Electr Activity, Via Opening
Axis Breakdown
Every ICD-10-PCS code is exactly seven characters, one per axis. Each character's meaning is defined by its position in the code.
| Position | Value | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Section4 | Measurement and Monitoring |
| 2 | Body SystemA | Physiological Systems |
| 3 | Root Operation0 | Measurement Determining the level of a physiological or physical function at a point in time |
| 4 | Body System0 | Central Nervous |
| 5 | Approach7 | Via Natural or Artificial Opening |
| 6 | Function / Device4 | Electrical Activity |
| 7 | QualifierZ | No Qualifier |
