*If the ischemic stroke is embolic (including cardioembolic) then instead of this code, use '''[[Cerebral infarction/stroke due to embolism]]'''.
*This code is "NOS" in by virtue of being an ischemic stroke that is not embolic.
**Thus, if the ischemic stroke is embolic (including cardioembolic) then instead of this code, use '''[[Cerebral infarction/stroke due to embolism]]'''.
**Don't confuse it with '''[[Stroke, NOS]]''' which is "NOS" in that it refers to a stroke for which is not specified as hemorrhage or infarction.
*If this code occurs, and then the initially ischemic stroke spontaneously "transforms" and bleeds, then COMBINE this code with the appropriate code for the hemorrhage (see below)
*If this code occurs, and then the initially ischemic stroke spontaneously "transforms" and bleeds, then COMBINE this code with the appropriate code for the hemorrhage (see below)
**However, if hemorrhage after an ischemic stroke was NOT spontaneous, but followed anticoagulation, then the hemorrhage should be coded as '''[[Hemorrhage, due to anticoagulant drugs]]''' since it's not a spontaneous hemorrhagic transformation, and thus is a complication of treatment, not a complication of the stroke per se.

Additional Info

  • This code is "NOS" in by virtue of being an ischemic stroke that is not embolic.
    • Thus, if the ischemic stroke is embolic (including cardioembolic) then instead of this code, use Cerebral infarction/stroke due to embolism.
    • Don't confuse it with Stroke, NOS which is "NOS" in that it refers to a stroke for which is not specified as hemorrhage or infarction.
  • If this code occurs, and then the initially ischemic stroke spontaneously "transforms" and bleeds, then COMBINE this code with the appropriate code for the hemorrhage (see below)
    • However, if hemorrhage after an ischemic stroke was NOT spontaneous, but followed anticoagulation, then the hemorrhage should be coded as Hemorrhage, due to anticoagulant drugs since it's not a spontaneous hemorrhagic transformation, and thus is a complication of treatment, not a complication of the stroke per se.
