Positive occult blood in ICD-10 refers to the presence of blood in the stool that cannot be seen with the naked eye but is detected through laboratory testing. ICD-10, or the International Classification of Diseases, 10th Revision, is a global standard for classifying and coding medical conditions. Positive occult blood is often a sign of gastrointestinal bleeding, which may be caused by various conditions such as ulcers, polyps, diverticulosis, colorectal cancer, or inflammation in the digestive tract. It can also be an indicator of other health problems, such as kidney disease or bleeding disorders. ICD-10 codes are assigned to each specific medical condition or diagnosis, including positive occult blood. These codes are used by healthcare providers for documentation, billing, and statistical purposes.

Diagnosing positive occult blood involves analyzing stool samples using specific laboratory tests, such as a fecal occult blood test (FOBT) or a fecal immunochemical test (FIT). These tests detect small amounts of blood in the stool, usually coming from the digestive tract. Detecting positive occult blood is important for both diagnostic and screening purposes. It can help identify underlying gastrointestinal disorders or screen for colorectal cancer. If positive occult blood is found, further diagnostic tests, such as colonoscopy, may be recommended to determine the cause of the bleeding and develop an appropriate treatment plan. Overall, positive occult blood in ICD-10 serves as an important diagnostic tool for identifying and monitoring gastrointestinal bleeding, which can have various underlying causes and implications for overall health..
