ToggleCardiac catheterization is a procedure to treat or diagnose heart diseases, such as irregular heartbeats or clogged heart conditions. It is a process that uses a flexible, thin tube called the catheter to access the blood vessel in the heart. Cardiac catheterization enables doctors to find out crucial information about the heart valves, heart muscles, and blood vessels of the heart.
Cardiac catheterization also enables doctors to deliver treatments, do various heart tests, or carefully acquire a piece of the heart tissue for examination purposes. Heart diseases such as coronary angioplasty and coronary stenting are treated using cardiac catheterization. All these procedures are performed at a cardiac catheterization laboratory.
It is a safe process. A handful of people may have minor issues. Some may have bruises in the area where the catheter had been inserted. The contrast dye that highlights the arteries on the X-rays can make some people nauseous, develop hives, or can cause itchiness. The procedure is done while you are conscious but medications will be given to keep you relaxed. It involves fewer complications and you will recover soon.
Cardiac catheterization is a medical procedure done in a hospital setting by a doctor to treat and diagnose heart problems. It is safe, as it is conducted in a laboratory that is well-equipped to perform the necessary procedure. It is crucial to follow instructions before, during, and after a cardiac catheterization to recover from your heart condition soon.
