Adjusting A Heart-Lung Support Cannula

Vermont rates for HCPCS 33963

Surgery on the large tubing that links a patient to a machine performing the work of the heart and lungs, moving the tube so blood flows properly between the patient and the machine. Poor tube position limits how much support the machine can give, and correcting it restores full flow. The patient stays on support while the adjustment is made.
