STSTVT-0521 - Follow-Up One Year-0521

Video Transcription

Video Summary

In this video, the speaker discusses a case scenario related to the STS-ACC TBT Registry. The scenario involves a 74-year-old male who underwent a procedure in 2020 and was supposed to have a follow-up assessment between November 19, 2020, and March 19, 2021. However, it is discovered that the patient was in hospice during the timeframe, and there were no other documented attempts to contact the patient or family. The question is whether a follow-up record should be added during that timeframe, and the answer is no because there was no documented attempt to contact the patient. However, if there was documentation of a phone call with the daughter in October 2020, a follow-up record can be added using the date of the phone call. However, the information will not be included in the dashboard metrics without at least one follow-up assessment during the one-year timeframe. The video concludes by thanking the viewer for watching and mentioning that the next case scenario will be presented in the following month.
