Introduction

Tricuspid Regurgitation

Welcome to the cardiac surgery urgency assessment tool for Tricuspid Regurgitation (9071).

This implementation is a temporary work around replacing the old CPS tool which ‘died’ sooner and more completely than expected.

It is planned that a more comprehensive, user friendly, environment will be created to improve the utility and look and feel. The goal is to ensure all patients undergoing elective or urgent cardiac surgery, and soon cardiological intervention, will be scored consistently.
