provides the opportunity to collect and verify information about the patient to ensure patient
safety. Among the patient data that must be verified are:
a. emergency contact name.
b. laboratory and imaging results.

verification is best conducted when the patient can be involved and should be completed
before the patient leaves the preprocedure area.
