:Instruction: 
:Our coding process for patients who are admitted to ICU from the ER who have had a stroke and are given TPA in ER is as follows:
#'''[[CVA]] (505)'''
#'''TPA (763-2)'''
*(we tag patients who got TPA in ER as shown above)


==Do not code hemiplegia associated with stroke ==
We have not been consistently coding if hemiplegia is associated with stroke, therefore do not code.  We won't be including that level of detail.--[[User:TOstryzniuk|TOstryzniuk]] 17:01, 27 August 2010 (CDT)
