Course Description
This archived webcast will focus on vascular, cardiac, and interventional radiography. Part I will identify and describe various types of equipment and contrast media used during vascular, cardiac, and interventional procedures, including indications and contraindications for each. This course will also address pre- and post-procedural patient care as well as techniques utilized during these procedures, such as the Seldinger technique. Major elements of the human circulatory anatomy on radiographs and other imaging media will be explored, and sterile techniques that are used when performing these procedures will be discussed.
Learning Objectives:
After completing course, the participant should be able to:
- RESTATE the Seldinger technique in detail.
- EXPLAIN interventional radiographic procedures involving the use of contrast media.
- IDENTIFY the contrast media used during interventional radiographic procedures, including indications and contraindications.
- DEMONSTRATE knowledge of sterile technique employed during interventional radiographic procedures.
- STATE major elements of human circulatory anatomy on radiographs and other imaging media when performing interventional radiographic procedures.
- OUTLINE pre- and post-procedural patient care as it pertains to interventional radiography.
