Comprehensive renewal of the cardiac hemodynamic room at the Hospital de Barcelona

The Hospital de Barcelona is improving its medical care by refurbishing the cardiac hemodynamic room with the acquisition of the latest generation angiograph, ARTIS, Siemens floor icon. This change has significantly improved the quality of patient care at the same time as providing the doctors with a more advanced diagnosis and treatment tool. The new angiograph can carry out a wide variety of vascular explorations, from diagnosis and therapeutic coronarygraphy (angioplasty and coronary stent) to the positioning of aortic valves or periphery vascular studies.

Likewise, the cardiac hemodynamic and vascular room has been completely refurbished and extended, with the installation of a surgical level heating and air conditioning system to provide patients and personnel with a comfortable and safe environment. The refurbishment work on the vascular room was started in the summer and, after the installation and calibration of the system, it began operating normally in October.
