Video Transcription

Video Summary

The video discusses a case scenario in the IMPACT Registry involving a 55-year-old male with a late diagnosis atrial septal defect who previously declined surgery. The patient presents with worsening symptoms and cardiomegaly, suggesting pulmonary hypertension. The physician performs a diagnostic right heart cath to assess the patient's condition, including the QP-QS ratio. However, the video states that the QP-QS ratio was not provided and emphasizes that it is the responsibility of the physician to determine and document these hemodynamic measurements. The video concludes by explaining that the information should be obtained from the cath lab staff and physician. No credits are mentioned in the transcript.
