EPDIR-1122 - Appropriate Use Criteria Metrics-1122 - Appropriate Use Criteria Metrics

Video Transcription

Video Summary

The video discusses the appropriate use criteria metrics for CRTD (cardiac resynchronization therapy defibrillator) devices in the EP Device Implant Registry. It explains that the denominator for metric 27 and metric 105 is the total number of initial CRTD implants, and the numerator for metric 105 is the number of implants identified as not classifiable for AUC. The total number of classified CRTDs is obtained by adding the numerators of metric 106, 107, and 108 together. The video emphasizes the importance of evaluating the AUC metrics as a category rather than comparing individual measures. It also provides a case scenario of a 55-year-old patient to demonstrate how to apply the metrics. The video concludes by suggesting reviewing the AUC document for further reference.
