1122 - Sequence # 6010 | Systemic Ventricular Systolic Pressure

Video Transcription

Video Summary

In this video, the IMPACT Registry discusses a case scenario involving sequence number 6010, which focuses on systemic ventricular systolic pressure. The patient in question has hypoplastic right heart syndrome and pulmonary atresia. During a diagnostic cath procedure, the right ventricular pressure is measured at 123 over 22 with moderate HRHS, but no left ventricular pressures are obtained. The question posed is whether the right ventricular pressure of 123 should be coded as the ventricular systolic pressure for sequence 6010. The answer is no. This is because sequence 6010 is intended to capture the left ventricular pressure, and as the patient in this scenario has a functional left ventricle that wasn't assessed, the right ventricular pressure should not be coded for this sequence.
