Detailed Description: In 2004 the Cardiac Cath Lab at Childrens Healthcare of Atlanta was asked to conduct a Quality Improvement Review examining radiation exposure

To perform radiological procedures with minimal radiation exposure and to ensure safe care during catheterization procedures we conducted a chart review of all patients requiring fluoroscopy in the lab during the period of January - June 2004

Based on our Retrospective Review we were able to present Our New Standards to the Cardiac Cath Lab Committee at the end of June 2004 with the following

1 Diagnostic procedure time decreased from 45 minutes standard to 30 minutes standard
2 Intervention and Electrophysiology procedure time reduced from 90 minutes to 45 minutes
