Y76.1: Obstetric and gynaecological devices associated with adverse incidents : therapeutic (nonsurgical) and rehabilitative devices

Obstetric and gynaecological devices associated with adverse incidents refer to instances when therapeutic (nonsurgical) and rehabilitative devices used in the field of obstetrics and gynecology cause unintended outcomes or problems. These devices are typically used for the treatment, management, or rehabilitation of reproductive health conditions. Adverse incidents may include problems during the device's usage, such as malfunctioning or incorrect operation, or unexpected complications after the device's use, such as infections, allergic reactions, or injury to the body. The affected systems in the body usually involve the reproductive system and possibly others depending upon the extent of the complication. The symptoms experienced by the patient can vary widely, depending on the type of device and the specific nature of the adverse incident. Complications may develop rapidly or progressively over time, and severity can range from mild discomfort to severe, potentially life-threatening conditions. This diagnosis is made when the adverse event is directly associated with the used device.
