Video Summary

In this video, titled "IMPACT Registry December 2021 Case Scenario, Sequence Number 8,000, Cardiac Arrest," a nine-month-old female with an atrial septal defect is brought to the emergency department. The infant is experiencing worsening respiratory effort, a productive cough, and a bluish tint around her mouth and fingertips. She is having difficulty nursing and is admitted to the hospital with a diagnosis of persistent failure to thrive. She is scheduled for a diagnostic cath with possible closure. During the procedure, her heart rate drops to the low 50s to 60s, and she receives chest compressions for less than 30 seconds. The question asks whether Sequence 8,000, Cardiac Arrest, is coded as "no" or "yes." The answer is "no" because the patient did not experience a sudden cessation of cardiac activity. This concludes the video summary of the IMPACT Registry Monthly Case Scenario for December 2021.
