Other Device- Packemaker, ICD, CRT, etc?
answer type = drop-down list
- Determine candidacy
- evaluation = A
- indication = Device Evaluation
- comment = Initial evaluation, or re-evaluation after re-vascularization and/or optimal medical therapy, to determine candidacy for device therapy (and/or to determine optimal choice of device) are all categorized as appropriate indications.
- Initial evaluation after implant
- evaluation = U
- indication = Device Evaluation
- comment = Initial evaluation for CRT device optimization after implantation is categorized as an 'Uncertain' indication.
- Symptoms possible due to device
- evaluation = A
- indication = Device Evaluation
- comment = Known implanted pacing device with symptoms possibly due to device complication or suboptimal
pacing device settings is an appropriate indication.
- Change in clinical status
- evaluation = A
- indication = Device Evaluation
- comment = Routine surveillance of implanted device without a change in clinical status or cardiac exam is categorized as an inappropriate criteria. A change in clinical status is considered an appropriate indication.
- None of the Above
- evaluation = I
- indication = Device Evaluation
- comment = Routine surveillance of an implanted device, without a change in clinical status or cardiac exam, is categorized as an 'Inappropriate' indication.
- Don’t Know
- evaluation = UA
- indication = Device Evaluation
- comment = Unable to determine. Routine surveillance of implanted device without a change in clinical status or cardiac exam is considered an inappropriate indication.
