Hi,
I think you can use 634.91, because marked means not excessive....

Regards,

Would it be appropriat to code 634.11 if the doc states "incomplete miscarriage with "marked" vaginal hemorrhage and acute blood loss? I am not sure if the word marked should be interpreted as "excessive" hemorrhage.

Marked and acute blood loss go hand in hand denoting excessive hemorrhage
So as for me, 634.11 is the most appropriate.
Thank you
