A catheterization lab, commonly known as a cath lab, is an examination room in a hospital, clinic, or diagnostic centre where several types of tests and procedures like ablation, angiogram, angioplasty, implantation of pacemakers, etc. are performed. However, a cath lab is not an operation theatre. Heart surgeries like heart bypass operation are carried out in an operation theatre under general anaesthesia. Whereas the patients in a cath lab might be awake and will not be under general anaesthesia while the procedures are carried out. A cath lab is usually managed by a group of different specialists who will be led by a cardiologist.
Cardiac catheterization is a procedure performed to diagnose and treat certain types of cardiovascular diseases. A thin long tube called a catheter is inserted in an artery or vein or groin during this procedure. It is then threaded through the blood vessels to the heart. Cardiac catheterization also acts as a treatment for some cardiac problems like coronary angioplasty, and coronary stenting. In short, this procedure is sometimes performed to detect cardiac problems and sometimes to correct cardiac problems. This process involves less pain, low risk and fast recovery time.
Site planning involves the precise planning of each component to ensure sound functionality in the lab for the intended procedure(s). Site planning is a carefully integrated step to build an interventional cath lab. With limited space, slim budget & regulatory restrictions, site planning must involve competent people. Site planning requires personnel that understands structural, architectural & state regulatory expertise.
Here are the Recommended Components of a Cardiac Cath Lab:
Procedure Room - The procedure room within the catheterization laboratory should be considered first when planning a cath lab. It is recommended to have around 500-600 sq ft for the procedure area and 150-200 sq ft for the control room. The procedure room may also include counter space, storage, sink and computer terminals.
Control Room - The control room should allow control panels for the imaging & hemodynamic monitors. The control room is generally located near to the procedure room. The control room floor can be slightly elevated for a better view of the procedure room.
The Innova IGS 520 system offers a comprehensive suite of functionality customized for a wide range of EP procedures. With its 20.5 x 20.5 cm (8.1 in) square flat-panel digital detector, it offers excellent visualization of the heart and its chambers. The system is designed from the ground to provide the image clarity you need while helping you keep dose as low as possible. It includes features like Dose Personalization1, which gives you the tools to choose from up to four automatic exposure preferences for your system2. You can also modify3 any of these preferences in any clinical protocol to enable multi-procedure, multi-user customization and thus support well-informed decisions. Innova IGS 520 features a 3.75 frames per second fluoroscopic acquisition mode optimized for EP procedures.
