Video Summary

The video discusses a case scenario involving a 44-year-old male who presented to the emergency department with shortness of breath and episodes of intense chest pressure. The ECG obtained was negative for stemming, but labs showed rising troponin levels. The cardiologist diagnosed the patient with NSTEMI and the patient went to the cath lab the next day, where a 75% stenosis was found in the OM-1 artery and a stent was placed. The video then poses a coding question about how to code the patient's sequence and patient type. The correct answer is number 4, unstable angina, because the patient did not meet the definition of NSTEMI. The video concludes by thanking viewers for watching. No credits are mentioned.
