ABSTRACT
A survey of 117 member cardiac catheterization laboratories was undertaken by the Society for Cardiac Angiography and Interventions. The survey included numbers and types of procedures, both diagnostic and interventional, in adult as well as pediatric age groups. Radiation safety, various laboratory policies, frequency of short stay, and outpatient procedures were tabulated. Report generation, training programs, administrative organization, and laboratory equipment were all included. The results were compared with a 1978 survey. Areas of concern in terms of safety of the patient and possible underutilization of laboratories were identified.
