Diagnostic and interventional cardiovascular catheterization

NIH临床中心根据临床需要为NHLBI和其他机构的患者提供心脏和血管插管服务。这包括非工作时间的心血管急救护理。这也包括合作研究人员实施侵入性和非侵入性方案所需的侵入性心血管服务。 我们与NHLBI的心脏病学咨询服务合作，提供门诊住院患者的心血管咨询服务。我们还提供血管医学咨询服务和无创影像服务。 我们提供咨询图像指导，例如图像指导报告，以帮助中心安全地进行跨腔静脉访问。 我们的部分动机是提供临床心血管护理。我们的部分动机是保持和提高提供出色调查护理所需的医护人员、护士和技术人员的技能。 我们还通过密切合作到外部医疗中心旅行，将导管干预领域的外部进展，特别是结构性心脏干预领域的外部进展带回NHLBI壁内研究部。此外，我们还前往外部医疗中心教授NIH开发的技术，例如通过下腔静脉进入主动脉以实现经导管主动脉瓣置换，以及Lampoon。两个例子包括华盛顿特区儿童国家医学中心的NHLBI合作研究计划，以及密歇根州底特律亨利·福特医院的NHLBI合作研究计划。

Cardiac and vascular catheterization services are provided to patients of NHLBI and other institutes at NIH Clinical Center based on clinical need. This includes off-hours emergency cardiovascular care. This also includes invasive cardiovascular services required for the conduct of invasive and non-invasive protocols from collaborating investigators. We provide consultative outpatient inpatient cardiovascular care, in coordination with the NHLBI consultative cardiology service. We also contribute vascular medicine consultative services and non-invasive imaging services. We provide consultative image guidance, for example image guidance reports to help centers safely perform transcaval access. Part of our motivation is to provide clinical cardiovascular care. Part of our motivation is to maintain and enhance the skills of staff physician, nurse, technologist alike required to provide excellent investigational care. We also travel to outside medical centers through close collaboration to bring outside advances in catheter intervention, specifically in the field of structural heart intervention, back into the NHLBI Division of Intramural Research. In addition, we travel to outside medical centers to teach techniques developed at NIH, such as transcaval access to the aorta to enable transcatheter aortic valve replacement, and LAMPOON. Two examples include the NHLBI collaborative research program at Childrens National Medical Center in Washington DC, the NHLBI collaborative research program at Henry Ford Hospital in Detroit MI.
