Access was gained from the left common femoral artery. A 5f sheath was placed, using a RIM catheter and an 0.035 GWA wire, reached the aortic bifurcation and performed an angiogram here. Then crossed over to the right side with the wire and advanced the wire all the way to the right proximal SFA. Exchanged the short 5F catheter to a long 6F destination sheath (45cms). Through the sheath at the right SFA level performed an angiogram with distal runoff on the right side. then pulled the sheath back into the left CIA and exchanged the long sheath to a short 6F sheath. through this sheath, performed an angiogram at the left CFA level with a left distal runoff. Performed an angiogram of the left groin, removed sheath and deployed a Mynx Closure device for hemostasis.

The codes I came up with are: 36247,75716(I forgot to put readings in this thread but this was done bilaterally) and 75625. I get confused with 75630, I think that code includes 75716 and has to state renal were looked at as well. My confusion comes with the catheter selection any help would be so much appreciated.:)

Thanks
