Video Summary
The video is a presentation on best practice guidelines for coding liver and splenic injuries. The presenter begins by introducing the organization she is affiliated with, VCU, which includes several hospitals and is a level one state and ACS verified adult trauma center. She explains that the spleen is vulnerable to injury due to its position and is easily injured because it overlies the rib cage. The spleen is the most commonly injured abdominal organ and requires immediate treatment due to the risk of significant blood loss. The speaker discusses the anatomy of the spleen and its different parts, such as the red pulp and white pulp. She explains how spleen injuries are diagnosed using methods like FAST and CT scans, and discusses the non-operative and operative management options for splenic injuries. The presenter also covers the grading of splenic injuries and how to code them based on AIS severity and ICD-10 codes. The video then transitions to discussing liver injuries, including their common causes and the anatomy of the liver. The speaker explains how liver injuries are diagnosed and managed, and also covers the grading and coding of liver injuries. The presentation ends with a quiz to test the viewers' understanding of the material. The presenter provides her contact information for any further questions or assistance.
