Continued Review of CRC TAVR Document
- Charles has cleaned up the document. He has been unable to find a SNOMED code for Device Embolization Left Ventricle and Dev Embolization Aorta. This may be due to the possibility of the devices being removed.
- It has been decided to code the pre-procedure and baselines measurements is a results organizer. There is a SNOMED code, the baseline state, [LOINC refers to them differently] that can be used. SNOMED also has a procedure related findings code which will help denote the approitre code. There is no SNOMED or LOINC code for pre-TAVR measurements.
- If there are multiple procedures taking place during an intervention, each will require a separate results organizer.
- A UID link to DICOM images is required. Some facilities like UW do not do perform cine imaging or fluoro to keep the radiation risk low over a two year follow-up process. It sounds like it should be supported, but not with a 'shall' statement.
