Methodist Fremont Health unveils remodeled cardiac catheterization lab

Methodist Fremont Health's newly remodeled cardiac catheterization lab opened Aug. 10.

The $2.2 million investment is designed to expand access to the same advanced cardiovascular care that Methodist is known for – now closer to home for those living in Fremont and surrounding areas.

The renovation marks the cath lab's first major update since 2009 and includes:

• Advanced cardiovascular, circulatory and vascular monitoring systems
• A new contrast injector
• An integrated intravascular ultrasound system
• New surgical lighting and gas boom technology
• Remodeled and enhanced staff workspaces

The cath lab supports a wide range of lifesaving and minimally invasive procedures, including diagnostic heart catheterizations, coronary and vascular angioplasty and stenting, pacemaker and ICD implantations, interventional radiology procedures, cardioversions, and transesophageal echocardiograms.
