Abstract
Optimal outcomes are as much influenced by critical decision making pathways as by the technical skill of the operator. The complexity and potential cognitive traps underlying critical decision making has long been recognized in the aviation and business communities, however, remains a largely subconscious, unexamined discipline amongst congenital cardiac interventionalists. Challenges to making good decisions in the catheterization laboratory include heuristics, biases, and cognitive traps. In this paper we discuss some of the more common decision making challenges encountered and we address potential solutions to such decision making with particular focus towards standardization.
