ICD‐10‐CM/PCS Terminology (Integrated) Did you Complete the PRE-Test? 1 5/13/2013 Circulatory pathologies affecting brain Neurological pathologies affecting brain Affect Cerebral & Precerebral blood vessels Atherosclerosis Aneurysm Stroke Non‐traumatic hemorrhage Infarction/obstruction Occlusion/Stenosis 2 5/13/2013 Build up of waxy plaque on inside of blood vessels (inner layer only), can block blood flow Gk, athere = gruel, skleros = hard Atherosclerosis Type of arteriosclerosis Arteriosclerosis = general term for hardening of arteries (inner/middle layers of artery wall) Arteriosclerosis can occur in several forms, including atherosclerosis Plaque composed of fatty substances, cholesterol, waste products from cells, calcium, and fibrin Inner artery wall thickens, Artery's diameter reduced, Blood flow and oxygen delivery are decreased (stenosis, stricture) Plaques can rupture or crack open Sudden formation of blood clot (thrombus, embolus) Complete blockage Stroke if located in precerebral/cerebral arteries 3 5/13/2013 Response to endothelial Heredity damage Parents have AD, High cholesterol, High blood pressure, & cigarette smoking Sex – Males 45+, Women 55+ Equal risk after 60 Homocysteine Lipoproteins Low levels of HDL Localized, blood‐filled dilation of blood vessel caused by disease/weakening of vessel wall Physical inactivity, diabetes, & obesity High levels of All 3 = 8X more likely atherosclerosis, or stroke early African‐Americans (HTN) Often incidental finding Berry aneurysm small (size of berry) saccular aneurysm of cerebral artery, usu. at junction of vessels in Circle of Willis Narrow opening into artery http://www.nhlbi.nih.gov/health/healthtopics/topics/arm/printall-index.html 4 5/13/2013 3 to 5 million people in US have cerebral aneurysms Most do NOT produce symptoms 0.5 ‐ 3 % of people may suffer from bleeding Usually develop at arteries’ branching points Caused by constant pressure from blood flow Often enlarge slowly/become weaker One aneurysm = 15 to 20 % chance of more aneurysms Subarachnoid hemorrhage due to rupture of cerebral aneurysm ‐ most common ages 20 to 60 Slightly more common in women than men Precipitators of aneurysm rupture Heavy lifting/straining can cause pressure to rise in brain Strong emotions (upset/angry) can raise blood pressure Blood “thinners” (warfarin, etc.) Some meds/prescription drugs (also stimulant diet pills such as ephedrine and amphetamines) Harmful drugs like cocaine can cause aneurysms to rupture and bleed 5 5/13/2013 Other blood vessel disorders Fibromuscular dysplasia, cerebral arteritis or arterial dissection VERY unusual Infections Drugs (amphetamines/cocaine) that damage brain blood vessels Direct brain trauma from accident Elderly = Falls Young = MVAs Size Shape Small = < 5 mm (1/4 inch) Medium = 6–15 mm (1/4 to 3/4 inch) Large = 16–25 mm (3/4 to 1 inch) Giant = > 25 mm (1 inch+) Saccular (sack‐like) with a well‐defined neck Saccular with wide neck Fusiform (spindle shaped) without a distinct neck Location Cerebral aneurysm –usu. located along major arteries deep within brain structures Anterior OR posterior circulation 6 5/13/2013 AKA ‐ Brain attack, CVA, CVI (Cerebrovascular Insult), Infarct, Apoplexy Sudden death of brain cells in localized area due to inadequate blood flow Single most costly disease 3.4 million women in the US living w/disabilities resulting from stroke Lifestyle Tobacco Use & Smoking Alcohol Use Physical Inactivity Obesity Medical High Blood Pressure Atrial Fibrillation High Cholesterol Diabetes Atherosclerosis/Circulation Problems Migraine esp. women <55 Sickle Cell Disease Sleep Apnea TIA 7 5/13/2013 55 + Male (Female in later years) African American, Hispanic or Asian/Pacific Islander Family Hx of stroke or TIA

Numbness/weakness of face, arm or leg – especially one side of body Confusion, trouble speaking or understanding Trouble seeing in one or both eyes Trouble walking, dizziness, loss of balance or coordination Severe headache w/no known cause Women may report unique stroke symptoms SUDDEN Face and limb pain General weakness Palpitations Chest pain Hiccups Nausea SOB 9 5/13/2013 Common stroke symptoms Loss of balance or coordination Dizziness (Vertigo – spinning sensation) Slurred speech (Dysphasia) Loss of previous ability to speak/understand spoken or written language (Aphasia) NOT

No symptoms detected during medical exam or by friends, family or co‐workers Stage 3: Mild cognitive decline (early‐stage Alzheimer's Dx in some, but not all, individuals w/these symptoms) Friends, family or co‐workers begin to notice difficulties. Detailed History by Drs may detect problems in memory/concentration. Common stage 3 difficulties include: Noticeable problems coming up with right word or name Trouble remembering names when meeting new people Noticeably greater difficulty performing tasks in social/work settings Forgetting material that was just read Losing/Misplacing a valuable object Increasing trouble w/planning or organizing Stage 4: Moderate cognitive decline (Mild or early‐stage Alzheimer's disease) Careful medical interview able to detect clear‐cut symptoms in several areas Forgetfulness of recent events Impaired ability for challenging mental arithmetic — for example, counting back from 100 by 7s Greater difficulty performing complex tasks ‐ planning dinner for guests, paying bills Forgetfulness about own personal history Becoming moody/withdrawn, especially in socially or mentally challenging situations 59 5/13/2013 Stage 5: Moderately severe cognitive decline (Moderate or mid‐stage Alzheimer's disease) Gaps in memory & thinking are noticeable, need help with ADLs Unable to recall own address/telephone number or high school/college Become confused about place or what day it is Trouble w/ less challenging mental arithmetic; such as counting backward from 40 by subtracting 4s or from 20 by 2s Need help choosing proper clothing for season/occasion Still remember significant details about themselves and family Require no assistance with eating or using toilet Stage 6: Severe cognitive decline (Moderately severe or mid‐stage Alzheimer's disease) Memory continues to worsen, personality changes may occur & individuals need extensive help w/ADLs. Individuals may Lose awareness of recent experiences as well as of surroundings Remember own name but have difficulty w/personal history Distinguish familiar & unfamiliar faces but trouble remembering name of spouse Need help to dress properly Experience major changes in sleep — sleeping in day & restless at night Need help handling toileting (i.e., flushing toilet, wiping or disposing of tissue) Increasingly frequent trouble controlling bladder or bowels Major personality/behavioral changes, inclu. suspiciousness & delusions (believing caregiver is impostor) or compulsive, repetitive behavior Tend to wander or become lost 60 5/13/2013 Stage 7: Very severe cognitive decline (Severe or late‐stage Alzheimer's disease) Individuals lose ability to respond to environment, to converse and to control movement.
