U51 Cognitive functional restriction

Superordinate classification: U50-U52 Impairment of function

Singular encoding of the cognitive functional restrictions within the first five in-patient days of treatment; in case of varying values within this period of time the highest score has to be encoded. In case of geriatric or early rehabilitative treatment the encoding occurs analogous to the beginning of the treatment. The encoding requires the application of one of the mentioned standardized test methods (FIM: Functional Independence Measure®, MMSE: Mini Mental State Examination).

Subclassification:

• U51.2 Severe cognitive impairment of function
• U51.1 Moderate cognitive functiona restriction
• U51.0 No or light cognitive functional restriction
