CV ASC Registry Education-Seq#5220 (Cardiac CTA Performed)

Video Transcription

Sequence 5220, Cardiac CTA Performed, is indicating if a cardiac computerized tomographic angiography was performed between birth or previous procedure and current procedure.  When the target value is separated into two distinct thoughts, it is easier to apply to the patient scenario.  When the patient presents for a new episode of care, apply this portion of the target value, last value between birth and current procedure.  When the patient presents to the lab after having a diagnostic or PCI procedure during the episode of care, apply this portion of the target value, the last value between previous  procedure and current procedure. As most patients are presenting from home to an ambulatory surgery center or office-based  lab, this portion of the target value will almost always be applied, capturing a cardiac CTA performed anytime between birth and the current procedure, regardless of a history  of PCI or CABG.

Video Summary

Sequence 5220, Cardiac CTA Performed, details applying cardiac computerized tomographic angiography results to patient scenarios. For new care episodes, the value between birth and current procedure is used; for lab visits after prior procedures, the value between previous and current procedure is applied. This process is crucial for patients transitioning between home, surgery centers, or labs. The target value determines if a cardiac CTA was done anytime between birth and the current procedure, irrespective of previous procedures like PCI or CABG. It ensures accurate assessment in different medical settings and patient histories.
