Seq#5263 (Prior Diagnostic Coronary Angiography Procedure without intervention)

Video Transcription

Sequence 5263, Prior Diagnostic Coronary Angiography Procedure Without Intervention,  is indicating if the patient has had a diagnostic coronary angiography procedure without a subsequent intervention.  This data element seeks to identify when an intervention, such as CABG or PCI, was not the intended treatment after the diagnostic cath.  The term procedure in the target value is in reference to the diagnostic only or PCI procedure.  And while this data element is shared with our hospital registries where multiple procedures may occur during one episode of care, the ASC registry is initially built to handle  one pathway per episode of care.  Thus, the target value for an ASC or OBL is better understood if written any occurrence between birth and current procedure.

Video Summary

Sequence 5263 in the ASC registry looks at whether a patient underwent a diagnostic coronary angiography procedure without further intervention like CABG or PCI. It aims to clarify when an intervention was not planned after the initial diagnostic catheterization. This element pertains to the diagnostic or PCI procedure specifically. While this information is shared with hospital registries covering multiple procedures within one care episode, the ASC registry focuses on a single pathway per care episode. Therefore, the target value in an ASC or OBL setting should reflect any occurrence from birth to the latest procedure.
