Z94: Transplanted organ and tissue status

The category 'Transplanted organ and tissue status' generally refers to the conditions associated with the bodily status post-organ or tissue transplant. These conditions can present in various ways based on the specific organ or tissue that has been transplanted, such as the heart, kidney, liver, lung, or pancreas, among others. Possible changes can include the body's reaction to the new organ or tissue, typically called rejection, which may show through symptoms like pain, fever, or abnormal function of the transplanted organ. On the other hand, successful transplants can restore the normal function of the affected system and improve overall health. The progression of these conditions often depends on multiple factors, including the type of transplant, overall health of the patient, and effectiveness of medications used to prevent the body from rejecting the transplant. Further, infections and complications due to immunosuppressive treatment can also occur. These conditions are generally acquired through medical procedures, rather than being transmitted from one person to another.
