Cardiac Catheterization I: Pre-Procedure Overview01:28

Cardiac Catheterization I: Pre-Procedure Overview

3.4K
Cardiac catheterization is an invasive diagnostic technique used to identify and evaluate structural and functional diseases of the heart and major blood vessels. This technique diagnoses congenital heart disease, coronary artery disease, valvular heart disease, and coronary spasms and assesses ventricular function. It helps guide treatment decisions, including the need for revascularization procedures like percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) or coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) and...

Cardiac Catheterization IV: Nursing Management

1.2K
Nursing responsibilities before cardiac catheterization include:Assess for allergies and establish baseline health status.Before cardiac catheterization, assess the patient for allergies to contrast dye. Perform a comprehensive baseline assessment, including vital signs, heart and breath sounds, and a neurovascular assessment of the extremities, noting distal pulses, skin color, and temperature. Instruct the patient to fast for 8-12 hours before the procedure. Evaluate baseline laboratory...

Pulse rhythm01:30

Pulse rhythm

1.7K
Pulse rhythm refers to the pattern of pulsations within specific intervals, offering valuable insights into the regularity or irregularity of the heart's beats as observed through the pattern of pulsation within specific intervals. A regular pulse exhibits a consistent heart rate with uniform waveforms and pulsation force, variations of which can be classified as normal, weak, or bounding.
Conversely, an irregular pulse pattern is termed dysrhythmia, stemming from disruptions in cardiac...

Cardiac Catheterization III: Left Heart Catheterization

1.3K
Left heart catheterization is an invasive diagnostic procedure used to evaluate the function and structure of the left side of the heart. It is generally performed to diagnose and treat cardiovascular conditions such as valve abnormalities, coronary artery disease, and congenital heart defects.Diagnostic and therapeutic purposesLeft heart catheterization serves various diagnostic and therapeutic purposes, including:Assessing coronary artery bypass grafts.Evaluating coronary artery disease in...

Holter Monitor: 24-Hour Monitoring

5.7K
Holter monitoring is a continuous electrocardiography (ECG) recording that tracks the heart's electrical activity over an extended period, generally 24 to 48 hours. This noninvasive diagnostic tool detects irregular heart rhythms that may not be captured during a standard ECG performed in a clinical setting.DeviceThe Holter monitor is a portable, small device connected to several electrodes on the patient's chest. These electrodes detect the heart's electrical signals and transmit them to the...

Area of Science:

  • Cardiology
  • Medical Technology
  • Nursing Informatics

Background:

  • Limited evidence exists on the impact of Continuous Patient Monitoring (CPM) workflows on staff efficiency and work processes in catheterization laboratories (cath-labs).
  • This study addresses this gap by comparing a novel CPM workflow with traditional stationary monitoring in a cath-lab setting.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the usability and operational impact of a Continuous Patient Monitoring (CPM) workflow integrated into a catheterization laboratory (cath-lab).
  • To compare staff efficiency and patient preparation times between CPM and stationary monitoring workflows.

Main Methods:

  • A prospective, pre/post study design was employed in two cath-labs using the Philips Hemodynamic Monitoring System with IntelliVue X3.
  • Data collection included staff timestamps for operational metrics and usability surveys (System Usability Scale and Usefulness, Satisfaction, and Ease of Use questionnaires) post-implementation.
  • A four-week training and washout period preceded the CPM phase data collection.

Main Results:

  • The CPM workflow achieved a System Usability Scale (SUS) score of 70% and a Usefulness, Satisfaction, and Ease of Use (USE) score averaging 6 out of 7, indicating high ease of learning and use.
  • Qualitative feedback highlighted potential time savings, ease of use, and consistent vital sign monitoring with the CPM workflow.
  • No clinically significant differences were observed in pre-preparation or post-preparation times between the stationary and CPM workflows, despite a higher patient volume in the CPM phase.

Conclusions:

  • Continuous Patient Monitoring (CPM) has been successfully implemented in the cath-lab environment, demonstrating high usability and positive staff feedback regarding patient safety.
  • The CPM system's usability scores were comparable to those in perioperative settings and exceeded general benchmarks.
  • While not significantly impacting preparation times, the CPM workflow offers benefits in terms of perceived patient safety and ease of use for cath-lab staff.
