The ICD-10-CM (International Classification of Diseases, Tenth Revision, Clinical Modification) is a system used by physicians and other healthcare providers to classify and code all diagnoses, symptoms and procedures recorded in conjunction with hospital care in the United States.
Why ICD-10 codes are important
Quadriplegia, C5-C7 complete 53 became effective on October 1, 2021. This is the American ICD-10-CM version of G82. 53 - other international versions of ICD-10 G82.
ICD-10 code G82. 52 for Quadriplegia, C1-C4 incomplete is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Diseases of the nervous system .
Item I5100, quadriplegia, "primarily refers to the paralysis of all four limbs (arms/legs) caused by spinal cord injury, period." CMS further indicated functional quadriplegia "refers to complete immobility due to severe physical disability or frailty." Conditions such as cerebral palsy, stroke, pressure ulcers, ...
Tetraplegia, also known as quadriplegia, refers to paralysis in the upper and lower body. This means that it affects both arms and both legs. This type of paralysis is typically due to damage to the spinal cord or brain. Tetraplegia is one of the most severe forms of paralysis.
Incomplete quadriplegia involves weakness or paralysis of all four limbs. Depending on the severity of the spinal cord injury, individuals may have residual movement. About 47% of all spinal cord injuries result in incomplete quadriplegia, making it the most common type of spinal cord injury.
Complete paraplegia occurs when the damage to the spinal cord is severe enough to completely cut off all connections between the brain and areas below the level of injury. Individuals with complete paraplegia will have no motor control or feeling below their level of injury.
ICD-10 code G82 for Paraplegia (paraparesis) and quadriplegia (quadriparesis) is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Diseases of the nervous system .
Unlike quadriplegia — which is a full paralysis or inability to move all four limbs — quadriparesis is characterized by overall weakness in your arms and legs, but you can still feel and move your limbs. Quadriparesis can be caused by illness or injury.
Functional quadriplegia should be considered with patients diagnosed with severe, end-stage dementia or an advanced progressive neurogenerative disorder such as multiple sclerosis, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), cerebral palsy, or Huntington's disease.
Quadriplegia refers to paralysis from the neck down, including the trunk, legs and arms. The condition is typically caused by an injury to the spinal cord that contains the nerves that transmit messages of movement and sensation from the brain to parts of the body.
There are many different causes of paralysis—and each one may result in a different kind of paralysis, such as quadriplegia (paralysis of arms and legs), paraplegia (being paralyzed from the waist down), monoplegia (paralysis in one limb), or hemiplegia (being paralyzed on one side of the body).
Doctors may use several methods to diagnose different causes of quadriplegia, such as: MRI Scans. Doctors can use MRI scans to check for abnormalities such as brain tumors, cysts, and herniated disks in the spinal cord that may be impeding signals from the brain. Spinal Taps (Lumbar Punctures).
