O224 - Sequence # 4030 | CHA2DS2-VASc - Stroke

Video Transcription

Video Summary

In this case scenario, a patient is admitted for a left atrial appendage occlusion (LAAO) procedure. The patient has a history of non-valvular AFib, hypertension, and a hemorrhagic stroke. The physician did not include the previous history or the hemorrhagic stroke in the documentation of the CHADS VAST score. When coding sequence number 4030, CHADS VAST Stroke, the answer is no because CHADS VAST Stroke only includes ischemic and undetermined origin strokes, not hemorrhagic strokes. The CHADS VAST element may be coded if there is a documented CHADS VAST assessment performed with the stroke included or a documented history of ischemic or undetermined stroke.
