  • Post-Procedure Care :

  • Monitor patients post-procedure for any immediate complications, including bleeding, infection, or changes in vital signs.
  • Assist in the transfer of patients to recovery or another unit after the procedure, ensuring they are comfortable and stable during transport.
  • Provide post-procedure care instructions to patients, including guidance on activity restrictions, wound care, and follow-up appointments.
  • Assist in the removal of catheter lines, drains, or other devices after the procedure if required, and ensure the area is clean and dressed properly.

  • Keep accurate records of equipment use, maintenance, and any issues that arise with the imaging equipment.
  • Collaboration with Medical Team :
