What do you think?

November 2003
Can you help answer these questions from your colleagues across the country? Protocol to change transducer What is the protocol for when to change the transducer on the table? Understandably, if patient’s blood were flushed through the device, but do others change it weekly, daily, after each patient or when experiencing difficulty with pressure waveform? Anonymous by request Email: CathLabDigest@aol.com Proper documentation during procedures I was wondering if you could direct me to an appropriate resource to consult regarding proper documentation during a procedure in the cardiac cath lab. We are looking for what has to be noted, what doesn’t, what are the rules, etc. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
