Radiation safety program for the cardiac catheterization laboratory.
The Society of Cardiovascular Angiography and Interventions present a practical approach to assist cardiac catheterization laboratories in establishing a radiation safety program. The importance of this program is emphasized by the appropriate concerns for the increasing use of ionizing radiation in medical imaging, and its potential adverse effects. An overview of the assessment of radiation d...
متن کاملPulse fluoroscopy radiation reduction in a pediatric cardiac catheterization laboratory.
OBJECTIVE To determine if lower starting pulse fluoroscopy rates lead to lower overall radiation exposure without increasing complication rates or perceived procedure length or difficulty. SETTING The pediatric cardiac catheterization laboratory at University of Michigan Mott Children's Hospital. PATIENTS Pediatric patients with congenital heart disease. DESIGN/INTERVENTIONS We performed ...
متن کاملAnaesthesia in the cardiac catheterization laboratory.
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Interventions in the cardiac catheterization laboratory (CCL) requiring anaesthetic expertise are becoming routine. These interventions involve a heterogeneous patient population and take place in an offsite location. This review aims to give an insight into anaesthetic issues surrounding certain interventions and the challenges encountered in an offsite location. RECENT FIN...
متن کاملDiagnostic Cardiac Catheterization in the Pediatric Population
Although the utility of diagnostic cardiac catheterization in the clinical setting has diminished over the last years, due to the emergence of noninvasive imaging modalities, such as echocardiography, magnetic resonance imaging and computed tomography, catheterization for diagnostic reasons still constitutes a valuable tool in certain parts in the workup of pediatric heart disease. As a result,...
متن کاملIncidence of and risk factors for catheterization-induced complete heart block in the pediatric cardiac catheterization laboratory.
BACKGROUND The majority of the literature on catheterization-induced heart block (CIHB) was published >30 years ago. The field of cardiac catheterization has evolved, performing more interventional compared with diagnostic cases. We sought to determine the incidence and risk factors of CIHB. METHODS AND RESULTS A catheterization database that records the occurrence of adverse events on all ca...
