of our aging population (Narang et al., 2016). Nurses caring for patients in the cardiac catheterization laboratory are key members of the cardiovascular workforce. While there is research to support the development of nurses working in the pre- and post-cardiac catheterization laboratory settings; current literature reveals little information about the development of nurses working in the cardiac catheterization laboratory (Currey, White, Rolley, Oldland, & Driscoll, 2015).

This past Friday at the Cardiac Catheterization Lab my mentor was not there but I still got to do everything that I enjoy doing, like watching procedures and talking to the doctors, nurses, and staff. When I arrived I knew my mentor would not be there so I had asked another one of the ladies in the office if there were any surgeries that were going on for me to watch. After I was given scrubs to change into I was able to go into where the surgeries are happening. I went into the control room that

This Friday was a very eventful and exciting day at the Cardiac Catheterization Lab. When I first arrived at the office I asked my mentor, Maria, if there were any procedures that I could watch. After two phone calls, there was one surgery that had just begun that I could sit in and watch. When I went to the control room, I had looked through the glass and I had noticed that there were at least six or seven people in the surgery room. After about five minutes watching the surgery and the screen that

Indications for pediatric cardiac catheterization have undergone significant changes over the last 3 decades. In early 1980s, with emerging of none to less invasive diagnostic modalities and more specifically with current echocardiography diagnostic ability, cardiac catheterization is no longer considered as a mainstay diagnostic tool for most cardiac anomalies except in rare occasions or when accurate hemodynamics measurements are needed. But with dramatic improve in the quality and availability

This Friday at the Cardiac Catheterization Lab was a bit more uneventful than most of the previous days and compared to most of the experiences I have had in the past. My mentor was not there this week, nor will she be here this week but there was still a lot for me to do and I know many of the other employees in the cardiology department so they put me to work which was great. Since I was not here during spring break and the other volunteer that works in the cardiac office on Wednesdays (or Thursdays)

This Friday at the Cardiac Catheterization Lab was a very productive and eventful one. First thing in the morning I went to watch a procedure, or “case” as they call it that the hospital since there were not any patient files ready to be filed away. When I went to go to the control room with the surgery happening, the patient was already on the surgery bed and the nurses and tech people (I do not know their professional name or title) were preparing the equipment that they needed to perform the surgery

Cardiac catheterization is often referred to as coronary angiography or a coronary angiogram. It is a radiographic procedure that is used to look at and visualize the heart and the coronary arteries. During a cardiac catheterization it is possible for the cardiologist performing the procedure to see how effectively blood is flowing through the coronary arteries. In addition, this procedure allows the cardiologists to see how blood is moving through the chambers of the heart and how effective the

Dr. Hughes smiled. “That is also a catheterization but this is a Cardiac catheterization. What that involves is inserting a catheter into the vessel of the heart usually from the groin or the arm. If we find we need to put a stent in, then we will do it at that time.” “So I will be here for only one day?” Adam asked holding Tammy’s hand a little tighter. “I am hoping for one night but again that will depend on what the test results show. Let’s hope that is all he will need,” Dr. Hughes said. “I’ll
