Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

In 2004, the Cardiac Cath Lab at Children's Healthcare of Atlanta was asked to conduct a Quality Improvement Review examining radiation exposure.

To perform radiological procedures with minimal radiation exposure and to ensure safe care during catheterization procedures, we conducted a chart review of all patients requiring fluoroscopy in the lab during the period of January - June, 2004.

• Based on our Retrospective Review, we were able to present Our New Standards to the Cardiac Cath Lab Committee at the end of June, 2004 with the following:

1. Diagnostic procedure time decreased from 45 minutes standard to 30 minutes standard.
2. Intervention and Electrophysiology procedure time reduced from 90 minutes to 45 minutes.
