The use of surgical left atrial appendage occlusion devices, including the AtriClip device for stroke prevention as a stand-alone procedure for stroke prevention in individuals with AF.Table: CPT Codes / HCPCS Codes / ICD-10 Codes CPT codes covered if selection criteria are met: Information in ...
Our analysis suggests that such bias would be minimal because we control for individual-level poverty and the SDI parameters are robust to the inclusion of zip code random effects. Conclusions The findings of this cohort study suggest that disparities in LVAD use by race and sex are not ...
Previously, standard cardiac structural phenotypes have included left ventricular (LV) and right ventricular (RV) mass, volume, mass to volume ratio, sphericity index, conicity and myocardial strain4,5,6,7,8,9,10. These measures have proven to be important for characterizing CVD and assessing in...
impact of frailty on hospital-related outcomes in patients undergoing elective LAA closure.#Methods:We reviewed the National Inpatient Sample database from January 2016 to December 2017 to identify patients that underwent elective percutaneous LAA closure using the ICD-10 code 02L73DK for the ...
resulting in 77 familial AF cases available for whole-exome sequencing. A replication cohort of 399 unrelated early-onset non-familial AF patients were also recruited using the Danish National Registries and ICD-10 code I48.9. These were characterized by disease-onset before the age of 40 with ...

Introduction:Compared to men, women have an increased risk of having a stroke, cardiovascular disease, and death. It requires continuous anticoagulation use based on CHA2DS2-VASc scores for stroke prevention. The Watchman device is indicated for patients with non-valvular AF at high risk of ...
Hospital Frailty Risk Score (HFRS) was calculated for each patient based on 109 ICD-10 diagnosis codes and classified into non-frail (HFRS < 5) and frail (HFRS score ≥ 5) groups. In-hospital major adverse event (MAE) was defined as the composite of mortality, stroke (ischemic or ...
