Establishing an Interventional Department: Structuring an Inpatient Clinic
摘要
Clinical management of patients undergoing interventional radiological procedures is an essential component of Interventional radiology (IR) inside and outside the hospital. IR ward-rounds are a simple approach to future proofing the specialty in an inpatient clinic. Interventional radiologists offer longitudinal patient care including not only an intervention as such but also pre- and post-interventional care. It is necessary to determine suitability of elective in- and outpatients for radiological-guided treatments in a clinic-based setting to be able to carry out the appropriate allocation.
