Answer:

Hypomagnesemia

Explanation:

  • Hypomagnesemia is a condition of low magnesium levels in the body and because magnesium acts as an active cardiovascular electrolyte, its deficiency leads to cardiac complications such as dysrhythmias.
  • People who suffer from myocardial infarction are often treated for hypomagnesemia to improve their cardiac conduction, however, hypomagnesemia can also develop in chronic alcoholics.
  • The other reasons that could lead to the condition faced by Robert Stevens can be hypokalaemia however, as he is also chronic alcoholic hypomagnesemia is the main cause.

The ICD-10-PCS code is 30240G4.

Firstly, select "Administration" (section 3) because the procedure is the administration of bone marrow to the patient. Secondly, select "Circulatory" (section 30) because it is being administered in a vein (circulatory system). Third, select "Transfusion" (section 302) because it is being done a transfusion of bone marrow. Then select "Central Vein" (section 3024) because that's the place of administration in the circulatory system. Lastly, go to "Bone Marrow" (section 30240G) as that is what's being transfused and then choose "Transfusion of Allogeneic Unspecified Bone Marrow into Central Vein, Open Approach" (<span>30240G4) because it is not specified what type of transfusion it is.</span>
