- Ensure proper documentation of patient information, procedures, and outcomes in the electronic health record (EHR) or procedure logs.
- Adhere to safety and infection control protocols, including the correct use of personal protective equipment (PPE), sterile techniques, and radiation safety protocols to minimize exposure to patients and staff.
- Monitor the catheter insertion site for signs of complications such as infection or clot formation.
- Collaboration with Medical Team:
- Work closely with cardiologists, radiologists, nurses, and other healthcare professionals to provide high-quality care for patients undergoing catheterization or other cardiac procedures.
- Attend pre-procedure meetings to review patient conditions and provide input on the appropriate procedure.

- Educate patients about their condition, the procedure they are undergoing, and the importance of follow-up care.
- Assist in training and mentoring new staff or students in the cath lab environment.
- Quality Control and Compliance:
- Adhere to all regulatory guidelines, including HIPAA for patient privacy, OSHA safety standards, and Joint Commission requirements.
