Getting real good coding the caths and stress test, starting to see the pacers coming across my desk, anyone lend a hand?? Thanks
Procedure performed: Placement of left internal IV with transvenous pacemaker under fluoroscopy.
DX: Sick sinus syndrome, (427.81)
Descrip. of procedure: Left cervical area was prepped and draped sterilely. IV Lidocaine was used to numb up to the sternocleidomastoid triangle.
Under fluoroscopy and using the Seldinger technique, the left jugular vein was accessed. Placement was confirmed w/ guidewire into right atrium. A 5-French introducer was then placed, aspirated and flushed. Under fluoroscopy, a 5-French temp. pacer wire was advanced to the RV apex. After confirming sensitivity of less than 1mA, the previously placed right internal jugular temp pacer line was discontinued. The left IJ introducer was sutured into place.
