Monoplg upr lmb fol unsp cerebvasc dis aff right nondom side

This code signifies paralysis affecting a single upper limb, specifically the right arm, as a residual effect of a cerebrovascular event (e.g., stroke) where the specific type of cerebrovascular disease is not documented. The paralysis is noted to be on the non-dominant side of the patient.

Use this code when documentation clearly indicates right upper limb monoplegia as a sequela of a cerebrovascular accident, and the patient's right side is identified as non-dominant. This code is appropriate when the specific type of cerebrovascular disease (e.g., ischemic, hemorrhagic) is not specified in the medical record.

• Ensure documentation specifies "monoplegia" of the upper limb and laterality (right).
• Confirm the patient's right side is documented as non-dominant.
• This code requires an underlying cerebrovascular disease, even if unspecified. Do not use for monoplegia from other causes.
