CV ASC Registry Education-Seq#15510 (Condition History Occurrence)

Video Transcription

Each cardiovascular ASC procedure pathway is assigned unique and specific condition history data elements.  The entire team, including ambulatory surgery centers and office-based lab stakeholders, thoughtfully and concisely appointed these patient conditions to the respective pathway  based on reporting needs and keeping in mind the need for a lean dataset. So while the data dictionary lists every possible condition history that could be used within  the entire CV ASC registry, constraints are applied in the backend to only allow certain conditions to appear in the specific pathway chosen when using the data collection tool.  Thus, the easiest means to know which conditions are captured for a single procedure is the data collection form.  To code YES in sequence 15510, Condition History Occurrence, there must be a clinical diagnosis of the indicated medical condition.  And the data dictionary does provide education on what the medical condition is if our users are unfamiliar.  All pathways have child fields that seek more information when a documented clinical diagnosis  is captured in the patient's history, which we will review in depth in upcoming slides.

Video Summary

The cardiovascular ASC procedure pathways have specific condition history data elements assigned based on reporting needs and a lean dataset. The team appointed patient conditions to pathways thoughtfully and the data dictionary includes all possible conditions but only allows certain ones in each pathway. Conditions are captured in the data collection form where YES is coded in Condition History Occurrence if there is a clinical diagnosis. The data dictionary educates users on medical conditions and pathways have child fields for more information on documented clinical diagnoses in the patient's history.
