Seq#5256 (Agatston Calcium Score Assessed)

Video Transcription

Video Summary

The video discusses the assessment of agastin calcium scores to determine the coronary calcium score between previous procedures and the current one for patients seeking care. By separating the values into distinct thoughts, healthcare providers can easily apply the scores to patient scenarios. The focus is on applying the calcium score from the last test between birth and the current procedure for new care episodes. For patients returning to the cath lab after previous procedures, the focus is on the last value between the previous procedure and the current one. Typically, patients visiting ambulatory centers or office labs will have the score applied, covering tests from birth to the current procedure regardless of prior procedures.
