T88: Other complications of surgical and medical care, not elsewhere classified

The group of conditions classified under other complications of surgical and medical care generally refer to issues that arise unexpectedly during or after a medical procedure, and that are not covered by other specific categories. These complications can occur due to a variety of factors, including patient's medical history, the nature of the procedure, or unanticipated reactions to medication or treatment. Common symptoms can range widely from physical discomfort or pain, swelling, difficulty in recovery, to more severe consequences such as organ damage or system failure, depending on the unique circumstances. These complications can influence the progression of the original disease and can also affect various body systems, further complicating the patient's overall healthcare path. The specific symptoms and disease progression depend largely on the medical procedure that was performed and the nature of the unexpected complication that ensued.
