The procedure is performed in the inpatient setting to remove and reinsert the device within the products of conception space while preserving uterine integrity. Typical codes: 10207YZ
A postpartum patient with a temporary internal uterine pressure catheter placed for hemorrhage monitoring requires replacement when the device malfunctions; the catheter is removed and a similar pressure-monitoring device is reinserted through the uterine cavity without incision during the inpatient admission for hemorrhage management.
