SAH ICD-10-CM Codes

SAH can be caused by ruptured brain aneurysms, arteriovenous malformations (AVMs), head injuries, or other underlying conditions affecting blood vessels.

Symptoms include a sudden and severe headache, neck stiffness, sensitivity to light, nausea, vomiting, and changes in consciousness.

Diagnosis involves imaging tests such as CT scans and cerebral angiography to locate the source of bleeding and determine the appropriate treatment.
