Statement Position Statement of the Brazilian Cardiology Society and the Brazilian Society of Hemodynamics and Interventional Cardiology on Training Centers and Professional Certification in Hemodynamics and Interventional Cardiology – 2020 Arq Bras Cardiol. 2020; 114(1):137-193 Annex 16 RECOMMENDATIONS FOR WRITING REPORTS IN HEMODYNAMICS AND INTERVENTIONAL CARDIOLOGY (MINIMUM REQUIREMENTS) 70,71 Reports in hemodynamics and interventional cardiology are individualized for each physician, hemodynamics service, and procedure performed. The continuous methodological and technological evolution in interventional cardiology leads to minimal uniformity in order to meet current expectations to facilitate comprehension of each procedure by the patient, the hospital, and the source of payment. The composition of a report in hemodynamics and interventional cardiology includes the following minimal elements: 1. Patient’s general information: name, sex, date of birth, day, time, hospital registration, procedure number, source of payment, referring physician. 2. Clinical indication for the procedure. 3. Procedure performed (e.g., left catheterization, coronary cineangiography and left ventriculography; coronary angioplasty with stent implantation; alcohol septal ablation; temporary pacemaker implantation, etc.). 4. Participating physicians: auxiliary physicians and anesthetist. 5. Technique utilized: a. Access route. b. Material utilized. c. Catheter size (French scale). d. Number of projections (usual or otherwise). e. Technique for vascular hemostasis. f. Use of vasoactive drugs or IIb/IIIa platelet antagonists. 6. Procedure findings: a. Manometry (invasive pressure of chambers studied). b. Oximetry, calculation of cardiac output, flows, and resistances, in indicated cases. c. Coronary cineangiography. d. Left and right ventriculography and ascending aortography. e. Coronary, structural, extracardiac, congenital intervention. f. Other results of complementary imaging methods and vascular/coronary physiology performed. 7. Procedure time, radiation dose, type and volume of contrast use in the patient. 8. Complications. 9. Final conclusion on the findings. 10. Comments: note difficulties with projections, different catheter exchanges, angiography of the access site, change of initial access for another. 188
