Video Summary

In this case scenario, a 68-year-old male with chronic kidney disease underwent a transcatheter mitral valve repair, with dialysis discussed as a potential outcome. Although the initial procedure was aborted due to complications, his creatinine levels rose significantly post-procedure, prompting dialysis initiation. The patient's dialysis initiation occurred after the first transcatheter-based therapy procedure attempt, thus it's not coded as pre-existing dialysis. However, the new requirement for dialysis is coded as an intra-post-procedure event for the first cath lab visit. This captures acute kidney issues occurring between the start and next procedure within the same care episode.
