Y10-Y34: Event of undetermined intent
Y13: Poisoning by and exposure to other drugs acting on the autonomic nervous system, undetermined intent
The group of conditions under the title "Poisoning by and exposure to other drugs acting on the autonomic nervous system, undetermined intent" represents a variety of health problems resulting from either accidental exposure or intentional consumption of certain drugs affecting the autonomic nervous system. The autonomic nervous system controls key bodily functions like heart rate, digestion, respiratory rate, and reflexes. When harmful substances, termed here as "drugs", interfere with this system, it can lead to imbalance and can negatively affect these functions. Common symptoms can include fainting, difficulty breathing, abnormal heart rhythms, unusual sweating, and digestive issues among others. External factors or direct ingestion may cause exposure, but the intent behind such exposure is not determined in these conditions. Disease progression can range from recovery with appropriate treatment to severe and life-threatening conditions, dependent on the substance involved, exposure amount, and quickness of medical intervention. These conditions directly impact body functions, emphasizing the importance of professional care.
