What do Cardiovascular Invasive Specialists/Technologists do?
Cardiovascular Invasive Specialists/Technologists assist physicians with heart and blood vessel diagnostic and therapeutic procedures by preparing equipment, monitoring patient vital signs, operating imaging equipment, and manipulating catheters and guide wires during procedures such as angioplasty and stent placement.
They work in a sterile laboratory environment, providing patient care, ensuring equipment is functional, and maintaining accurate records to support the diagnosis and treatment of various cardiovascular conditions.
Responsibilities
Patient Care: Monitor patient condition, administer medications under supervision, and provide psychological and physical support to patients before, during, and after procedures.
Procedure Assistance: Manipulate cardiac catheters, guide wires, and other specialized tools under the direction of a cardiologist during procedures such as angioplasty, stent placement, and pacemaker insertion.
Equipment Operation: Operate and maintain complex equipment, including X-ray (fluoroscopy) machines for imaging, and other monitoring and cardiac assist devices.
Preparation: Prepare the procedure room, equipment, and supplies, ensuring everything is sterile and ready for invasive procedures.
Documentation: Maintain accurate records, analyze data from diagnostic tests, and ensure precise documentation of patient procedures and outcomes.
Emergency Response: Work in a hospital setting and may be on-call for emergencies, participating in life-saving interventions.
Procedures and Interventions
Cardiovascular invasive specialists assist with a range of diagnostic and interventional procedures, including:
Other Interventions: May also assist with procedures like thrombolysis (clot removal) and biopsies.
Cardiac Catheterization: Performing and assisting with diagnostic and interventional procedures involving inserting catheters into the heart.
Angioplasty and Stenting: Procedures to widen blocked arteries using balloons and to insert stents to keep them open.
Electrophysiology Studies: Tests to measure and assess the electrical activity of the heart.
Device Implantation: Assisting with the placement of pacemakers, implantable cardioverter-defibrillators (ICDs), and other cardiac devices.
