This report reflects the interest of the Section of Hemodynamics and Interventional Cardiology of the Spanish Society of Cardiology in increasing quality, safety and applicability of percutaneous procedures, by giving scientific keys aimed at improving related functions of teaching or planning in this field and enhancing competence and prestige of Spanish interventional cardiologists. The purpose of the document is to describe the importance of current interventional cardiology, to identify quality references and to establish minimum acceptable requirements for assessing and maintaining the competence of practicing or providing advanced training in this discipline. To achieve this goal, a search for a gold standard of the different techniques of general interventional practice was carried out, and predictors of postprocedural outcome were analyzed, as well as their relation with different kinds of circumstances. This analysis identified coronary angioplasty as the standard on which recommendations regarding competence in overall interventional cardiology standards of quality and assessment and maintenance of proficiency must be based. On the other hand, the strong influence of experience and knowledge of results has been documented, especially in high-risk or high-complexity settings. On this basis, the report establishes specific recommendations about proficiency for practice and advanced training. It also suggests that interventional cardiology should be considered as a subspecialty, of cardiology requiring specific credentials. |
