ICD-9-CM Diagnosis 389

Hearing loss

  • A general term for the complete or partial loss of the ability to hear from one or both ears.
  • 389 is a non-specific code that cannot be used to specify a diagnosis


ICD-9-CM Diagnosis 389.0

Conductive hearing loss

  • Hearing loss due to interference with the mechanical reception or amplification of sound to the COCHLEA. The interference is in the outer or middle ear involving the EAR CANAL; TYMPANIC MEMBRANE; or EAR OSSICLES (OTOSCLEROSIS).
  • 389.0 is a non-specific code that cannot be used to specify a diagnosis

ICD-9-CM Diagnosis 389.00

Conductive hearing loss unspecified

  • Hearing loss due to interference with the mechanical reception or amplification of sound to the COCHLEA. The interference is in the outer or middle ear involving the EAR CANAL; TYMPANIC MEMBRANE; or EAR OSSICLES (OTOSCLEROSIS).
  • 389.00 is a specific code that can be used to specify a diagnosis
  • 389.00 contains 4 index entries

ICD-9-CM Diagnosis 389.01

Conductive hearing loss external ear

  • 389.01 is a specific code that can be used to specify a diagnosis

  • 389.06 contains 2 index entries

ICD-9-CM Diagnosis 389.08

Conductive hearing loss of combined types

  • 389.08 is a specific code that can be used to specify a diagnosis
  • 389.08 contains 4 index entries


ICD-9-CM Diagnosis 389.1

Sensorineural hearing loss

  • Hearing loss resulting from damage to the COCHLEA and the sensorineural elements which lie internally beyond the oval and round windows. These elements include the AUDITORY NERVE and its connections in the BRAINSTEM.
  • 389.1 is a non-specific code that cannot be used to specify a diagnosis

ICD-9-CM Diagnosis 389.10

Sensorineural hearing loss unspecified

  • Hearing loss resulting from damage to the COCHLEA and the sensorineural elements which lie internally beyond the oval and round windows. These elements include the AUDITORY NERVE and its connections in the BRAINSTEM.
  • 389.10 is a specific code that can be used to specify a diagnosis
  • 389.10 contains 7 index entries

ICD-9-CM Diagnosis 389.11

Sensory hearing loss

  • Hearing loss resulting from damage to the COCHLEA and the sensorineural elements which lie internally beyond the oval and round windows. These elements include the AUDITORY NERVE and its connections in the BRAINSTEM.
  • 389.11 is a specific code that can be used to specify a diagnosis
  • 389.11 contains 4 index entries

ICD-9-CM Diagnosis 389.12

Neural hearing loss

  • 389.12 is a specific code that can be used to specify a diagnosis
  • 389.12 contains 7 index entries

ICD-9-CM Diagnosis 389.13

Neural hearing loss, unilateral

  • 389.13 is a specific code that can be used to specify a diagnosis
  • 389.13 contains 7 index entries

ICD-9-CM Diagnosis 389.14

Central hearing loss

  • Hearing loss due to disease of the AUDITORY PATHWAYS (in the CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM) which originate in the COCHLEAR NUCLEI of the PONS and then ascend bilaterally to the MIDBRAIN, the THALAMUS, and then the AUDITORY CORTEX in the TEMPORAL LOBE. Bilateral lesions of the auditory pathways are usually required to cause central hearing loss. Cortical deafness refers to loss of hearing due to bilateral auditory cortex lesions. Unilateral BRAIN STEM lesions involving the cochlear nuclei may result in unilateral hearing loss.

  • 389.15 contains 3 index entries

ICD-9-CM Diagnosis 389.16

Sensorineural hearing loss, asymmetrical

  • 389.16 is a specific code that can be used to specify a diagnosis
  • 389.16 contains 3 index entries
