ISSUES FOR CATH LABS

The Cath Lab environment within NHS Trusts is one of the most important to care, for several reasons:

- it represents a difficult procedural environment, with major blockages for staff and patient alike

- many different groups of staff are involved in conducting the process

- there are several risks to safety, due to inadequate information on status

- it represents a substantial capital and revenue investment for the Trust

ISSUES FOR MANAGEMENT

The Cath Labs are one of the most expensive investments made by the NHS and represents a substantial revenue source for Hospital Trusts.

However - do you know how effectively it is REALLY used? Much of current analysis is circumstantial, lacking real evidence of how long the procedure process(es) are taking and the actual reasons for cancellations and delays.

If you cannot measure these issues, how can you identify improvements?

“Labyrinth saves us a lot of time. We used to spend all day outside the labs, chasing Patients. Now we are free to spend time in the Labs, because the list is managed so much more efficiently.”
