7. International Quality Effort
Quality is not a U.S. issue. Quality is a Cath Lab issue.
SCAI is dedicated to partnering with all societies and countries to promote universal application of quality standards for the best possible patient care.
Every successful Cath Lab Quality program has one Physician Champion!
It is Individual Interventional Cardiologist Champions that create and maintain QUALITY in their OWN cath labs doing the right thing, for the right patient, at the right time … even when nobody is watching.

8. What We Can Do Together
SCAI Wants to work with SACIS and each of you to help establish Quality Champions throughout Saudi Arabia using the SCAI-QIT.
May 15, The team from King Faisal Specialist Hospital & Research Centre and the ACE Review Team.
