CPCI-0226 - Intra/post Procedure Events Sequence #9001 Bleeding: Access Site

Video Transcription

Video Summary

In this case scenario, a 60-year-old female with STEMI underwent emergent PCI with femoral access. Post-procedure, no external bleeding at the access site was documented, so intra-post-procedure bleeding was not coded. However, within 72 hours, her hemoglobin dropped by 4.5 g/dL, meeting the PCI in-hospital risk standardized bleeding definition despite no visible bleeding. This highlights that significant hemoglobin drop alone qualifies as PCI bleeding under metric key 4934, even without documented access site bleeding.
