Wiki Help with Code

Had a patient come to the ED after MVA who is 9 weeks pregnant. She has no injuries but wants to be examined. US is done.
I know for a nonpregnant I would code V71.4 and the E code. Do I need to have an pregnancy code?
Thanks,

<Too bad you're not using I-10. Z04.1 seems like a suitable code. But it doesn't reflect she's pregnant in her 1st trimester.>

Ignore, I'm sorry but as I kept reading my I-10 I've come to the conclusion I can't help you in this mater. Sorry.

Though Z34.01 (First pregnancy) and Z34.81 (other) are the closest.

I am thinking this will be a V22.0 or V22.1 code for supervision with the E code for the accident to help explain the ultrasound.
