I69.033
ICD-10-CMMonoplegia of upper limb following nontraumatic subarachnoid hemorrhage affecting right non-dominant side
This code signifies paralysis affecting a single upper limb (monoplegia) that developed as a sequela of a subarachnoid hemorrhage not caused by trauma. Specifically, it indicates that the right upper extremity is affected, and this side is identified as the patient's non-dominant side. This neurological deficit is a chronic condition resulting from the prior hemorrhage.
Use this code for patients presenting with established right upper limb monoplegia directly attributable to a previous nontraumatic subarachnoid hemorrhage, where the right side is documented as non-dominant. Documentation should clearly state the causal link between the subarachnoid hemorrhage and the monoplegia, and specify the affected limb and dominance. This code is appropriate for long-term follow-up and management of this neurological deficit.
