Background: In coronary angiography, the use of contrast agents containing iodine still defines the gold standard. In patients with contraindications for iodine exposition, gadolinium has been considered to be a safe alternative to standard iodinated contrast medium for coronary angiography.

A coronary angiogram is a procedure that uses X-ray imaging to see your heart's blood vessels. The test is generally done to see if there's a restriction in blood flow going to the heart. Coronary angiograms are part of a general group of procedures known as heart (cardiac) catheterizations.
Code I25* is the diagnosis code used for Chronic Ischemic Heart Disease, also known as Coronary artery disease (CAD). It is a is a group of diseases that includes: stable angina, unstable angina, myocardial infarction, and sudden coronary death.
A CT coronary angiogram differs from a standard coronary angiogram. The traditional procedure (non- CT angiogram) uses a flexible tube (catheter) threaded through the groin or arm to the heart or coronary arteries. For those with known coronary artery disease, the traditional approach can also be used as treatment.
You'll lie on a CT scanning bed that slides under the CT machine. You'll be connected to a heart rate monitor which will watch your heart rate and rhythm. The X-ray dye will be injected in the cannula. You'll be asked to hold your breath for around 10 seconds and lie very still each time an image is taken.
For identifying or excluding of obstructive coronary stenosis, CT coronary angiography was shown to be more cost-saving at a pretest probability of CHD of 50 % or lower, and invasive coronary angiography at a pretest probability of CHD of 70 % or higher.
CPRCPT states 92950 is intended to describe CPR to restore and maintain the patient's respiration and circulation after cessation of heartbeat and breathing.
Measurement is the first root operation and is used when the procedure determines the level of a physiological or physical function at a point in time. Monitoring is the second root operation and is used when the procedure determines the level of a physiological or physical function repetitively over a period of time.
Cardiac output is measured in liters per minute and is equal to the amount of blood ejected at each heartbeat (stroke volume in liters per beat) multiplied by the number of beats per minute. As a result, heart rate is a powerful determinant of cardiac performance.
CPT codes 93454 and 93455 (catheter placement, angiography) should be billed, as appropriate, when coronary or bypass angiography without left heart catheterization is performed. CPT codes 93454 and 93455 may be billed only once per catheterization.
Angiography, angiogram, or arteriograms are terms that describe a procedure used to identify narrowing or blockages in the arteries in the body. The procedure is the same regardless of what area of the body is being viewed.
Angiography is a type of X-ray used to check blood vessels. Blood vessels do not show clearly on a normal X-ray, so a special dye needs to be injected into your blood first. This highlights your blood vessels, allowing your doctor to see any problems. The X-ray images created during angiography are called angiograms.
0 for Cardiac catheterization as the cause of abnormal reaction of the patient, or of later complication, without mention of misadventure at the time of the procedure is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Complications of medical and surgical care .
