Description
Join Haugen Academy for Foundations of Congenital Cardiac Cath Coding: Tiny Heart, Big Procedures! Accurate coding of congenital cardiac catheterization procedures begins with a strong understanding of congenital heart disease (CHD) anatomy and the interventions used to treat these complex conditions. This webinar starts with a review of normal cardiac anatomy before exploring the structural abnormalities associated with some of the most common congenital heart defects, including tetralogy of Fallot, hypoplastic left heart syndrome, septal defects, valvular atresia, total anomalous pulmonary venous return (TAPVR), and transposition of the great arteries.
But understanding the defect is only part of the story. Because many congenital cardiac catheterization procedures are performed on patients who have undergone prior surgical repair, we will also examine the corrective procedures used to treat these conditions and how those repairs alter cardiac and vascular anatomy.
From normal heart structure to congenital malformations and the surgical interventions that restore functional circulation, this session will illustrate how vessels and blood flow pathways are rerouted, reconstructed, and reconnected. By the end of the webinar, participants will have a clearer understanding of the complex anatomy and physiology underlying congenital cardiac catheterization procedures, providing a stronger foundation for accurate coding and documentation.
Objectives:
- Identify the key anatomical features of normal cardiac anatomy and common congenital heart defects, including tetralogy of Fallot, hypoplastic left heart syndrome, septal defects, valvular atresia, total anomalous pulmonary venous return (TAPVR), and transposition of the great arteries
- Differentiate between congenital heart disease with normal and abnormal connections
- Identify the surgical and interventional procedures used to correct congenital heart defects and recognize how these repairs alter cardiac and vascular anatomy
