2.3 Room Layout Considerations
2.3.1 Radiation Protection
Because X–Ray equipment produces radiation, you may need to take special precautions or
make special site modifications. The General Electric Company does not make
recommendations regarding radiation protection. It is the purchasers’ responsibility to consult a
radiation physicist for advise on radiation protection in x–ray rooms.
2.3.2 Service Access
Allow appropriate space for service access of equipment. Consult component pre–installation
directions for clearance information.
2.3.3 Clinical Access
Make sure that you plan the room with the following clinical access requirements:
•
Provide easy access to the patient table. Stretchers and other mobile hospital equipment
must reach the table quickly.
•
The layout of the table in the room (PIM) shall make a provision so that the clearance
between the maximum table position (head side) on system axis and any object in the room
(e.g.: wall, device) be greater than 50 cm (19.7 in) or 65 cm (25.6 in) if the Header Extender
is used), taking into account the fact that the Tilting table can rotate 180°.
•
Provide sufficient space around the patient table for the unimpeded conduct of CPR
(Cardiac Pulmonary Resuscitation). With the table in this position, the table must be capable
of rotating ± 45°
•
Clinicians at the patient table must be able to communicate with assistants in the control
area.
•
There must be an unrestricted view of the video monitors and physiological monitoring
equipment from the vascular table.
•
Operators in the control area must have easy access to the control console. However,
position the controls (including handswitches) so that the operator cannot take exposures
while looking around or standing outside the control booth’s lead glass window.
•
Operators in the control area must have easy access to video recorders and injector
programmers, film and video storage cabinets, and service and operating manuals.
•
Consult customer on the number and location of nonelectrical lines (air, oxygen, vacuum,
water, etc.) in the vascular room.
•
For Large Display systems, in case of failure of the main monitor, the clearance around the
main monitor suspension must assure that it can be immediately be flipped at 180°,
exposing the backup monitors.
•
For Vivid E9 Option, during the clinical procedures the Vivid E9 will be positioned either on
the left, or on the right side of the patient head area, at a distance which permits comfortable
access of the TEE probe towards the patient. The Vivid E9 operator stands between the
equipment and the patient head. The patient head area positions are shared with the
anesthesiology equipment and operator, and the interventional cardiologist and/or surgeon.
