1 PERFORMANCE MEASURE TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS HRS-3: Implantable Cardioverter-Defibrillator (ICD) Complications Rate Measure Title Description Measure Type Data Source Level of Analysis Numerator HRS-3: Implantable Cardioverter-Defibrillator (ICD) Complications Rate Physician-specific risk-standardized rates of procedural complications following the implantation of an ICD. Outcome Electronic administrative data/claims, registry data, Medicare enrollment data Physician Number of patients from the denominator with one or more of the following complications or mortality within 30 or 90 days (depending on the complication) following ICD implantation. Complications measured for 30 days: 1. Death 2. Pneumothorax or hemothorax plus a chest tube 3. Hematoma plus a blood transfusion or evacuation 4. Cardiac tamponade or pericardiocentesis Denominator Statement Exclusions Risk Adjustment Complications measured for 90 days: 5. Mechanical complications requiring a system revision 6.
