Video Transcription

Video Summary

The video discusses a case scenario of a patient named Mr. Murphy who underwent an AFib ablation procedure. During the procedure, he experienced bleeding from his Foley catheter, which was managed with continuous bladder irrigation. However, the patient's hemoglobin level only dropped by 2 grams per deciliter, which does not meet the criteria for coding the bleeding as a genitourinary event. The video also addresses a bonus question about whether Mr. Murphy would be considered to have a major adverse event if he had received a transfusion, and the answer is no. Genitourinary bleeding is not categorized as a major adverse event. The video suggests referring to the executive summary measures and metrics companion guide for further information. No credits are mentioned.
