CPMI-0221 - Inclusion Criteria-0221

Video Transcription

Video Summary

This video discusses a case scenario involving a 75-year-old female who presents with chest pain and is scheduled for an elective cardiac catheterization after a stress test showed induced ischemia. During the catheterization, the patient experiences chest pain and ST elevations, leading to a diagnosis of evolving myocardial infarction (MI). The video then raises the question of how to code this patient's sequence 12360 patient type. The answer is number 3: this patient is not included in the Chest Pain in My Registry, as she is undergoing an elective procedure. The video emphasizes that patients undergoing scheduled procedures like elective cath or surgeries are not included in the registry unless an in-hospital STEMI occurs.
