Legacy Content
This page is about the pre-ICD10 diagnosis coding schema. See the ICD10 Diagnosis List, or the following for similar diagnoses in ICD10:Cerebral infarction/stroke, NOS, Cerebral infarction/stroke due to embolism, Hemorrhage, intracerebral/intracranial, nontraumatic (ICH, hemorrhagic stroke), Stroke, NOS, Subdural or epidural hematoma/hemorrhage, nontraumatic, Hemorrhage, subarachnoid or ruptured cerebral aneurysmClick Expand to show legacy content.
- also see Other Cerebral Infarct Cause NYD
This can be due to ischemia caused by blockage (thrombosis, arterial embolism), or a hemorrhage. Diagnostic imaging can identify the cause.
- We do not code paralysis or Paraplegia, Hemiplegia with the CVA.
- Template:Discussion Is Diaphragmatic Paralysis the Dx you are telling not to code? If not, which dx is it? This instruction should be at that article as well, since that might be where someone looks first to find out whether to code it. Ttenbergen 09:44, 2012 September 13 (CDT)
- if admitted with a acute stroke, the DX stays as part of the admitting DX until patient is discharged from the hospital system in the Region. It will be coded as a comorbid on the next new admission to a hospital system in the Region. This is in following the same rule as for when does an ARF become CRF. --TOstryzniuk 19:48, 2 December 2010 (CST)
Incidental findings of OLD lacunar infarcts
- Dan Roberts:Incidental findings of “old lacunar infarct” on CT will continue to be included as COMORBID diagnosis. IT seems staff have been including them as comorbids, if we stop including then this will affect the OverstayProject that is currently being piloted at the Grace and will eventually be done at other sites in the Region. -Trish Ostryzniuk 10:52, 2012 September 14 (CDT)
eliminate code?
- 50508 - CVA-Brainstem is really the same as code 504. This was an unintended double code that crept into list ages ago.Trish Ostryzniuk 16:05, 2012 July 12 (CDT)
- Template:Discussion should we delete one of them from the drop-down? if so, please add to Requested CCMDB changes for the next versionTtenbergen 09:37, 2012 September 13 (CDT)
