Cardiac and Vascular Laboratory

 

Our specialised Cardiac and Vascular Intervention Laboratory (CVIL) has two newly refurbished theatres. The procedures performed are typically via the groin area and under live imaging. Some procedures require general anaesthetic. subi CVIL


The types of procedures performed in CVIL are:

  • Cardiac diagnostic and intervention, including GPS mapping
  • Endovascular diagnostic and intervention
  • Electrophysiology diagnostic and arrhythmia  treatment

The laboratory is staffed by Registered Nurses, Radiographers and Patient Care Assistants who work along side Cardiologists and Vascular Surgeons.

Depending on the type of procedure you require, after it is completed you will be transferred to our recovery room or the Intensive Care/Coronary Care Unit.
