cardiovascular technology - challenging and demanding field

I have chose invasive cardiovascular technology because it is a rather surprising field in the most important organ of the body, that is constantly advancing and creating new solutions to problems such help diagnose structural or electrical abnormalities in the cardiovascular system helping the patient to have a longer life span. Also my love of helping people and making a difference in their lives a has been a great influence. It has been a great influence because from a very young age I liked to take care of the sick and through observation find effective recovery forms.

My curiosity to know how the heart works began when my husband was sick and diagnosed with aortic aneurysm, because of a murmur that he had since he was born. Now my question is how technicians knew he had developed an aneurysm? According to what I learned there is a procedure called cardiac catheterization (often called cardiac cath), a very small hollow tube, or catheter, is advanced from a blood vessel in the groin or arm through the aorta into the heart. Once it is in place, several diagnostic and treatment procedures can be done using catheterization.

Thanks to this procedure my husband was diagnosed with an aneurysm in the arch of the aorta rush to the hospital for surgery and his life was saved because of the fast approached to this problem. Preventative screening in high-risk patient populations and treatment of individuals with aneurysms have saved thousands of lives each year.

After what had happen to my husband, I was amazed and very grateful of how technology has advanced to the point of exploring the most internal places of the body and constantly advancing and creating new solutions to problems that once could not be treated, living in my heart with the desire to be part of the team of technologist that help others with this type of technology.

I know that being a cardiovascular technologist is challenging and demanding. I accept the challenge because challenges are what make us who we are. When overcoming any challenges it gives me a sense of accomplishment and gives me more self-confidence that I can do much more. I know someday I will be a cardiovascular technologist because I am determined and very focus on accomplishing my goal, my dream. I am outgoing and big on teamwork. I work hard and take pride in what I do and what I believe in.
