Video Transcription

Video Summary

The video discusses a case scenario involving a 75-year-old male with uncontrolled hypertension. The patient presents for a left atrial appendage occlusion procedure with a history of hypertension, a previous ischemic stroke, and persistent atrial fibrillation. The video explains that sequence number 4055, Haas blood hypertension, should be coded as "yes" based on the patient's pre-procedure systolic blood pressure readings exceeding 160 despite taking antihypertensive medication. The video also explains the criteria for coding the Haas blood element and how it relates to documented hypertension and treatment. In a bonus question, the video states that if the patient has no documented history or treatment for hypertension, the Haas blood element would be coded as "no." The video concludes by mentioning the next case scenario in the Haas blood series. No credits are provided.
