Therefore, this code may be out of date. The 2009 version of ICD-9-CM 276.2 can be accessed here. (met-ah-BOL-ik as-id-O-sis) A condition in which the blood is too acidic. It may be caused by severe illness or sepsis (bacteria in the bloodstream). A pathologic condition resulting from accumulation of acid or depletion of the alkaline reserve (bicarbonate) content of the blood and body tissues, and characterized by an increase in hydrogen ion concentration (decrease in pH). (Dorland, 27th ed) Acidosis caused by accumulation of lactic acid more rapidly than it can be metabolized. It may occur spontaneously or in association with diseases such as diabetes mellitus, leukemia, or liver failure. An abnormally high acidity (excess hydrogen-ion concentration) of the blood and other body tissues. Respiratory retention of carbon dioxide. It may be chronic or acute. 276.2 is a specific code that can be used to specify a diagnosis 276.2 contains 15 index entries View the ICD-9-CM Volume 1 276.* hierarchy 276.2 also known as: Acidosis: NOS lactic metabolic respiratory 276.2 excludes: diabetic acidosis (250.1) Index entries containing 276.2: Acarbia 276.2 Acid intoxication 276.2 Acidemia 276.2 arginosuccinic 270.6 fetal affecting management of pregnancy 656.3 before onset of labor, in liveborn infant 768.2 during labor and delivery, in liveborn infant 768.3 intrauterine 656.3 unspecified as to time of onset, in liveborn infant 768.4 newborn 775.81 pipecolic 270.7 Acidosis 276.2 diabetic 250.1 fetal, affecting newborn 775.81 fetal, affecting management of pregnancy 656.8 kidney tubular 588.89 lactic 276.2 metabolic NEC 276.2 with respiratory acidosis 276.4 of newborn 775.81 late, of newborn 775.7 newborn 775.81 renal hyperchloremic 588.89 tubular (distal) (proximal) 588.89 respiratory 276.2 complicated by metabolic acidosis 276.4 of newborn 775.81 metabolic alkalosis 276.4 Disorder - see also Disease electrolyte NEC 276.9 acidosis 276.2 metabolic 276.2 respiratory 276.2 Intoxication acid 276.2 Ketoacidosis 276.2 diabetic 250.1 Ketosis 276.2 diabetic 250.1 Lacticemia 271.3 excessive 276.2 Retention, retained carbon dioxide 276.2
