I have over five years of experience working in a cardiac catheterization lab, where I assisted with diagnostic and interventional procedures such as angiograms, angioplasties, and stent placements. My responsibilities included operating imaging equipment, monitoring patient vitals, and ensuring sterile environments. I am proficient in using fluoroscopy and other radiological tools, and I prioritize patient safety and comfort while maintaining high standards of care.

Patient safety is my top priority. I adhere to strict protocols, including verifying patient identity, confirming procedure details, and ensuring proper sterilization of equipment. I monitor vitals continuously and communicate effectively with the team to address any concerns. I also educate patients about the procedure and post-care instructions to minimize risks and ensure a smooth recovery.

I am skilled in operating and maintaining radiological imaging equipment, including fluoroscopy machines, C-arms, and digital imaging systems. I ensure proper calibration and troubleshoot technical issues to maintain image quality. My experience includes positioning patients for optimal imaging and collaborating with physicians to capture accurate diagnostic images for procedures like angiograms and pacemaker placements.

In high-pressure situations, I remain calm and focused by relying on my training and experience. I prioritize tasks, communicate clearly with the team, and follow established protocols to ensure efficiency and accuracy. For example, during emergencies like cardiac arrests, I quickly prepare necessary equipment and assist the team to stabilize the patient while maintaining composure.

I strictly follow infection control protocols, including proper hand hygiene, wearing sterile attire, and using aseptic techniques. I ensure all equipment is sterilized and properly draped, and I monitor the environment for any breaches in sterility. I also educate team members on best practices to maintain a safe and sterile workspace for every procedure.
