The Heart Centre

The Heart Centre at St. Paul’s is BC’s only referral centre for the most complex cardiac cases and is a leader in cardiac obstetrics, heart rhythm services and heart valve procedures. In addition, St. Paul’s is the only hospital in BC to perform adult heart transplants and holds expertise in all forms of heart disease.

The Cath lab at St Paul’s Hospital is where tests and procedures including ablation, angiogram, angioplasty and implantation of pacemakers / ICDs are carried out.

Cath lab nurses are health care specialists who work with doctors to provide patients with cardiac care before, during and after medical operations. Their primary task is to assist patients who require catheters. They also examine patients to ensure they're in proper health for surgery. During patient operations, they monitor patients ' vitals to make sure they're at healthy levels. Then, after a patient has come out of surgery, cath lab nurses perform their primary duty of working with and helping their patients through recovery. Cath lab nurses are with their patients throughout every step of their operations and may even provide care expertise after they've recovered.
