This category should never be used in primary tabulation. The codes are provided for use as supplementary or additional codes when it is desired to identify the presence of dementia in diseases classified elsewhere.
When dementia is due to multiple aetiologies, code all that apply.
Diagnostic Criteria
- All diagnostic requirements for Dementia Due to Alzheimer Disease are met.
- Neurocognitive, functional, and/or behavioural symptoms of Dementia appear to be partially related to co-existing cerebrovascular disease, as demonstrated by neuroimaging, medical tests, and/or by clinical history of cerebrovascular disease.
- Clinical course of neurocognitive and functional impairment is progressive, and typically characterized by combined impairment in so-called cortical cognitive functions (e.g., memory, language, and/or visuospatial skills) and so-called subcortical cognitive functions (e.g., attention, processing speed, and executive/frontal lobe-related functioning).
