Angiography Information System
A catheter laboratory system that manages coronary angiography and catheterization processes.
Angiography Information System is the system that manages the planning, procedure records, and reporting of coronary angiography and catheterization (catheter laboratory) processes. It includes the recording of materials, images, and findings used during the procedure.
The system aims to manage the catheter laboratory operation, procedure documentation, and tracking of materials such as consumables/stents in an integrated manner.
Other names / abbreviation: Catheter Laboratory System, Cath Lab.
What is it used for?
The angiography information system ensures that interventional cardiology procedures are recorded in a standard, traceable manner along with material tracking.
Key features
- Procedure record: Structured documentation of angiography/catheter procedures.
- Material and stent tracking: Recording of used consumables and implants.
- Image connection: Linking procedure images to reports.
- Laboratory schedule: Planning of the catheter laboratory.
Integration and standards
The Angiography Information System does not operate in isolation; it typically exchanges data with the following systems and processes:
- RIS/PACS
- Inventory/material management
- Cardiology information system
Frequently referenced standards and regulations:
Benefits provided
- Standardization in procedure documentation
