EPDIR-0223 - Metric 27 & the AUC-0223

Video Transcription

Video Summary

The video summarizes a case scenario regarding a 58-year-old female with heart failure and non-ischemic cardiomyopathy. Despite failed attempts to adjust medications, she receives a CRTD implant due to an LVEF of 38% and syncope from a sustained VT event. The video discusses whether the patient meets the numerator criteria for metrics 27 and 25, determining that she does not meet metric 27 but does meet metric 25. Additionally, the video discusses the classification of the CRTD procedure as "maybe appropriate" under metric 107 of the 2013 AUC document. The video provides steps to navigate the AUC document and determine the appropriate indication for the patient's implant.
