The cardiac cath lab in the Heart & Cardiovascular Center at Iredell Memorial Hospital has added a Siemens Artis Zee with PURE system.
This new cath lab equipment has made it easier for physicians to carry out both vascular and cardiac procedures without having to move patients to different rooms because of imaging limitations.
Previously, Iredell had a cath suite for heart procedures and a cath suite for vascular procedures. But with the updated technology, physicians can easily change the orientation of the equipment to view the patient’s peripheral vascular system or their heart vessels.
