Please help, I am new to this field and not sure about the codes
This is a 66 year old male with extensive cardiovascular disease who was recently admitted for DKA. During his cardiac work up he was found to have severe CAD requiring intervention. He was transferred to our institution for his cardiac stenting. Given his history of severe PAD with tissue lost, a concurrent right lower extremity diagnostic angiogram was recommended to assist in planning for his revascularization. Risks, benefits, and alternatives were discussed and patient consented to proceed.
Patient's coronary procedure was completed and a short 6F sheath was retained in the left common femoral artery. An Omni catheter was brought up to the L1 level for an aortogram. The catheter was then pulled down to the aortic bifurcation for additional pelvic views. Following this, the Omni catheter was used to canulate the right common iliac artery and advanced over the stiff glide wire. It was parked in the common femoral artery for the run off. Multiple sequential runs were obtained. Once completed, the wire and catheter was withdrawn and sheath replaced. Patient tolerated the procedure well and was taken to the cardiac recovery unit in satisfactory condition. All counts were correct.
Thank you for any help!!!!
