  3. Patient Safety and Comfort:
    1. Ensure patient comfort and safety throughout the procedure, positioning the patient appropriately to obtain optimal images while preventing injury.
    2. Take precautions to minimize radiation exposure to both the patient and the healthcare team by following radiation safety protocols, using shielding, and optimizing imaging settings.
    3. Monitor patients for signs of complications, such as bleeding, infection, or adverse reactions to contrast agents, and report findings to the physician.

    1. Regularly maintain and inspect IR equipment, such as fluoroscopy units, imaging systems, and catheter-based tools, ensuring they are functioning correctly.
    2. Troubleshoot any equipment malfunctions during procedures to ensure minimal disruption to patient care.
    3. Keep accurate records of equipment use, maintenance, and any issues that arise with the imaging equipment.
  6. Collaboration with Medical Team:
    1. Work closely with interventional radiologists, nurses, anesthesiologists, and other healthcare professionals to ensure the success of each procedure and high-quality patient care.
    2. Provide feedback and support to the medical team during procedures, particularly in regard to imaging quality and patient positioning.
    3. Participate in discussions before and after procedures to review patient conditions, procedural outcomes, and follow-up care.
  7. Documentation and Record-Keeping:
    1. Accurately document all patient information, procedures performed, imaging parameters, and medications administered in the electronic health record (EHR).
    2. Ensure that all records are completed in compliance with hospital or clinic policies and regulatory standards.
    3. Maintain detailed logs of imaging procedures, contrast agents used, and patient conditions during and after the procedure.
  8. Radiation Safety and Compliance:
    1. Follow strict radiation safety protocols to ensure that radiation exposure is minimized for both the patient and the medical staff, including wearing protective equipment such as lead aprons.
    2. Adhere to healthcare regulations and standards, including HIPAA, infection control measures, and hospital accreditation guidelines.
    3. Stay updated on the latest radiation safety practices, imaging techniques, and procedural advancements.
  9. Professional Development and Training:
    1. Participate in continuing education and training to remain current with the latest technologies, techniques, and best practices in interventional radiology.
