Perst migraine aura w cerebral infrc, not ntrct, w stat migr

This code describes a type of migraine where a patient experiences persistent neurological symptoms (aura) that continue for more than one week, accompanied by evidence of a cerebral infarction (stroke) on imaging. The migraine itself is not currently intractable (meaning it responds to treatment) and has progressed to status migrainosus, indicating a severe migraine attack lasting 72 hours or more.

Use this code for patients presenting with prolonged migraine aura symptoms confirmed by neurological examination, imaging evidence of a stroke, and a severe, prolonged migraine attack that is not refractory to standard treatments. Documentation should clearly specify the presence of persistent aura, cerebral infarction, and status migrainosus, along with the non-intractable nature of the migraine.

• Ensure documentation explicitly links the cerebral infarction to the persistent migraine aura.
• Distinguish from other migraine codes without cerebral infarction or persistent aura.
• Verify that the migraine is indeed "not intractable" and has progressed to "status migrainosus."
