Code for PEA

Can you tell me if there is an ICD-9 code for PEA (pulseless electrical activity)? It is also known by the older term Electromechanical Dissociation or Non-Perfusing Rhythm.

    In ICD-10 the code is I46.9 and the description there is "cardiac arrest, unspecified". In ICD-9 the code is 427.5 (cardiac arrest).
