Introduction. Cardioembolic stroke is defined as the presence of a potential intracardiac source of embolism in the absence of cerebrovascular disease in a patient with nonlacunar stroke. It is responsible for approximately 20% of all ischemic strokes. There is no 'gold standard' for this diagnosis.
Cardioembolic infarction is generally the most severe ischemic stroke subtype, with a low frequency of symptom-free at hospital discharge, a high risk of early and late embolic recurrences, and a high mortality [3,6] (Fig.
Personal history of transient ischemic attack (TIA), and cerebral infarction without residual deficits. Z86. 73 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes.
Thrombotic strokes are caused by a blood clot (thrombus) in an artery going to the brain. Embolic strokes occur when a clot that's formed elsewhere (usually in the heart or neck arteries) travels in the blood stream and clogs a blood vessel in or leading to the brain.
Sources of cardioembolic embolism include valvular diseases, left ventricular and atrial thrombi, cardiac tumors, and paradoxical emboli, as well as other sources.
1/17/2016. When a blood clot forms in the heart and then travels through the bloodstream, it is called a cardiac embolism. A cardiac embolism that travels to the brain is especially dangerous because it can cause a stroke.
A cardioembolic stroke occurs when the heart pumps unwanted materials into the brain circulation, resulting in the occlusion of a brain blood vessel and damage to the brain tissue.
Up to two-thirds of strokes are ischemic in origin, and approximately 25 percent of all ischemic strokes are cardioembolic. Cardioembolic strokes are frequently more severe than atherothrombotic strokes.
73 for Personal history of transient ischemic attack (TIA), and cerebral infarction without residual deficits is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Factors influencing health status and contact with health services .
If a patient is NOT EXPERIENCING A CURRENT CEREBROVASCULAR ACCIDENT (CVA) and has no residual or late effect from a previous CVA, Z86. 73 (personal history of transient ischemic attack, and cerebral infarction without residual deficits) should be assigned.
Code I25* is the diagnosis code used for Chronic Ischemic Heart Disease, also known as Coronary artery disease (CAD). It is a is a group of diseases that includes: stable angina, unstable angina, myocardial infarction, and sudden coronary death.
Embolic strokes are usually caused by a blood clot that forms elsewhere in the body (embolus) and travels through the bloodstream to the brain. Embolic strokes often result from heart disease or heart surgery and occur rapidly and without any warning signs.
High blood pressure is the leading cause of stroke and is the main cause for increased risk of stroke among people with diabetes.
An ischemic stroke is caused when blood flow to the brain is interrupted by a clot in a blood vessel in the brain. It is estimated that one-fourth of all strokes after age 40 are caused by Afib.
During cardiac surgery a large amount of cerebral microemboli can occur at once and create so-called "cerebral embolic showers." To correlate postoperative neurologic outcome to cerebral embolic load, a quantitative evaluation of these embolic showers is necessary.

I63.89 is a billable diagnosis code used to specify a medical diagnosis of other cerebral infarction. The code I63.89 is valid during the fiscal year 2022 from October 01, 2021 through September 30, 2022 for the submission of HIPAA-covered transactions.
I63.40 is a billable diagnosis code used to specify a medical diagnosis of cerebral infarction due to embolism of unspecified cerebral artery. The code I63.40 is valid during the fiscal year 2021 from October 01, 2020 through September 30, 2021 for the submission of HIPAA-covered transactions.
Unspecified diagnosis codes like I63.40 are acceptable when clinical information is unknown or not available about a particular condition. Although a more specific code is preferable, unspecified codes should be used when such codes most accurately reflect what is known about a patient's condition.

Evaluation of suspected or actual prosthetic valve endocarditis otherwise obscured because of reverberations and other image artifacts related to mechanical or other non-native valves during TTE.
Spectral Doppler echocardiography and Doppler color flow-velocity mapping (93320, 93321, 93325) may be necessary in addition to an echocardiogram when the examination could contribute significant information to the patient's condition or treatment plan (For dates of service on or after 01/01/2009, code 93306 should be used when Doppler is combined with a complete echocardiogram). Typically, Doppler is indicated in the evaluation of some heart murmurs, valvular problems, shunts, suspected congenital heart disease, complications of myocardial infarction, or cardiomyopathy. Doppler should be medically necessary for the evaluation and management of the patient.
The use of the Doppler is inherent in the ultrasonic cardiac evaluation. However, if the test reports fail to document the use of this technique to assess these structures and function (e.g., measurement of valvular insufficiency or stenosis, myocardial diastolic function, etc. as described by the ASE), or if the medical records fail to document that the examination was "clinically necessary" (e.g., follow-up of pericardial effusion size) then the Doppler portion of the test may be considered medically unnecessary and denied.
