EP Device Implant v2.3 Education-Device Implant/Explant Reason Pacing Indicated

Device Implant/Explant Reason Pacing Indicated – Reason Pacing Indicated, 14731

Video Transcription

Video Summary

The video explains that the current procedure of device implantation is for patients with bradycardia pacing or for those who need CRT implantation to treat heart failure unresponsive to medical therapy. The data elements highlighted in yellow indicate changes from version 2.2. The data dictionary version 2.3 provides definitions for the new supporting terms. Complete heart block induced by AV node ablation will no longer be coded separately, as AV node ablation has its own data element. The requirement of documenting RV pacing greater than 40% will no longer be coded based on previous advice.
