Video Summary

In this video, the STS-ACC TVT Registry Case Scenario discusses different situations related to cardiac arrest. The first case involves an 84-year-old patient who underwent a TAVR procedure and experienced ventricular fibrillation (V-fib) arrest during the procedure. Return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) was achieved after one defibrillation. Later, the patient had another episode of V-fib arrest, which was also successfully defibrillated. Post-procedure echo revealed pericardial effusion and pericardiocentesis was performed. The patient was then transferred to the ICU. According to the data dictionary, as the patient experienced an acute cardiac event (V-fib) requiring defibrillation, this is captured as a cardiac arrest. The video concludes with more practice questions related to cardiac arrest scenarios. Credits: No credits were mentioned in the video.
