In ICD-10-CM, "sequela" refers to a condition that is the result of a previous disease or injury. It is classified using specific codes that describe the late effects of an illness or injury, indicating that while the initial condition may have resolved, the sequelae or residual effects continue to affect the patient's health. Sequela codes typically follow the primary diagnosis code and are used to capture the ongoing impact of the original condition.
A sequela is a longer-term consequence of an illness. For instance, the sequalae (plural) of untreated strep throat can include heart valve damage and kidney disease.Sequelae or sequela means the permanent damage remaining after a disease has run its course.

sequela
A condition resulting from a previous injury could be a sequela.
Class III or IV, depending on other clinical sequela.
When coding a sequela, the late effect code is reported first, followed by the residual condition. The late effect code indicates the condition that is the result of a previous injury or illness, while the residual code describes the ongoing effects or complications stemming from that condition. This hierarchy helps accurately reflect the clinical scenario in the coding.
