ICD Pathway Condition History’s Child Fields

Video Transcription

Video Summary

Sequence 4400 and 4405 in the transcript deal with documenting a patient's history of atrial fibrillation and plans for cardioversion. The Data Dictionary helps classify atrial fibrillation types - paroxysmal, persistent, long-standing persistent, and permanent. Acceptance of AFib varies based on symptoms and treatments. Cardioversion uses shocks or medications to convert rhythm. Documentation clarity is crucial, and sites should note cardioversion history accurately. Coding for scheduled or prior cardioversions guides data entry. Physicians must document recent classification, ensuring accurate patient information for treatments. The registry requests cardioversion plans to inform care decisions, emphasizing the importance of patient and clinician collaboration in managing atrial fibrillation.
