24/7 delivery of safe angiography and endovascular interventional services relies on appropriately trained, competent staff, in sufficient number, with access to adequate equipment and consumables. This guidance covers the end-to-end process, including patient care from pre- to post-procedure, facilities and patient hand over.
This document replaces the 2011 guidance Standards in vascular radiology and reflects the numerous developments in patient safety that have occurred since that time.
