Video Transcription

Video Summary

The video is a case scenario for the STS-ACC TVT Registry. It focuses on Sequence 9002, Intra-Post-Procedure Events Occurred, specifically regarding the leading access site. A 60-year-old female underwent a TAVR procedure, and her right femoral valve delivery site was closed with a perclose. The patient did not experience any external bleeding or complications at the access site, but her hemoglobin levels dropped by 3.4 grams per deciliter within 24 hours of the procedure. The question posed is whether Sequence 9002 should be coded as No or Yes for the leading access site. The answer provided is No, as there is no documented external bleed to support coding for this data element. To code Yes, there must be documentation of observed bleeding at the access site, along with specific criteria such as a significant hemoglobin drop, transfusion, or procedural intervention.
