Y60: Unintentional cut, puncture, perforation or haemorrhage during surgical and medical care

Y60.7: During administration of enema

The ICD-10 code Y60.7 refers to an accident that occurs during the administration of an enema - a medical procedure typically used to stimulate bowel movements. This accident can include a variety of issues, such as the accidental laceration or puncture of the rectum or colon, an unintentional burn if the solution is too hot, or an adverse reaction if the patient is allergic to the solution used. Symptoms may vary depending on the nature of the accident, but they usually involve abdominal discomfort, pain, or bleeding. It's important to note that this code is designated for situations where the healthcare professional has unintentionally caused harm during treatment, rather than any complications which might arise due to the patient's underlying condition. Because this is a procedure-related issue, it's not transmitted between patients and doesn't progress as a typical disease would.
