I69.231
ICD-10-CMMonoplegia of upper limb following other nontraumatic intracranial hemorrhage affecting right dominant side
This code signifies paralysis affecting a single upper limb, specifically the right arm, as a residual effect of a non-traumatic intracranial hemorrhage (e.g., spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage, subarachnoid hemorrhage). The paralysis is a long-term neurological deficit occurring after the acute phase of the hemorrhage has passed.
Apply this code when documentation clearly indicates a patient presents with right upper limb monoplegia that is a sequela of a non-traumatic intracranial hemorrhage. The medical record must specify the laterality (right) and the dominant side (dominant) if known, and confirm the non-traumatic origin of the original hemorrhage.
