Testing Of An Under-Skin Defibrillator

Nevada rates for HCPCS 93644

With the patient monitored and a full resuscitation team on hand, the care team deliberately triggers a dangerous heart rhythm to confirm that a defibrillator implanted under the skin of the chest detects it and delivers a shock strong enough to stop it. They measure how much energy is needed, check how reliably the device senses the rhythm starting and stopping, and set or reset its parameters accordingly. This goes well beyond a routine check of how the device is running.
