ICD-10 Code I47.19 – Other supraventricular tachycardia (2026): Diagnosis, Symptoms & Billing Guide

The ICD-10 code for Other supraventricular tachycardia is I47.19.
2026 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code I47.19 – Other supraventricular tachycardia

What it is

I47.19 identifies a supraventricular tachycardia that starts above the ventricles but does not fit a more specific ICD-10 category. Use it when the record documents an atrial or junctional tachycardia pattern and no narrower code is supported.

Clinical signs

Typical findings include a rapid, regular narrow-complex rhythm, palpitations, dizziness, or shortness of breath. Clinical features vary; refer to documentation, especially when the rhythm source is described as atrial or junctional.

When to use this code

Use this code when the provider documents other supraventricular tachycardia and the episode is not better described by a more specific arrhythmia code. It also fits when the note confirms SVT above the ventricles but does not name a subtype. Check documentation if the rhythm is postoperative, drug-induced, or part of a broader cardiac condition.

Do not use for

Do not use it for ventricular tachycardia or for a clearly named supraventricular subtype with its own code. Do not assign it when the record only says “tachycardia” without confirming a supraventricular origin.

Coding tip

Code I47.19 only after you confirm the rhythm is supraventricular and no more specific diagnosis is documented.
