Introduction to NCDR Inpatient Registry Overviews

Video Transcription

Video Summary

The PVI Registry is a database that assesses the prevalence, management, and outcomes of patients undergoing certain vascular procedures. It aims to optimize patient outcomes, improve quality and safety, and provide risk-adjusted assessment compared to national data. Peripheral vascular disease (PVD) encompasses non-coronary vascular syndromes caused by altered arteries and veins. PVD is common in patients with atherosclerosis and risk factors like smoking, diabetes, and high blood pressure. Inclusion criteria for the registry include lower extremity interventions and carotid interventions for atherosclerotic stenosis. Exclusion criteria include trauma and erosion procedures. Follow-up can be captured at 30 days and one year post-procedure. The registry supports quality improvement, research, and provides data to stakeholders. It is governed by a steering committee and contributes to the NCDR's direction.
