Although the utility of diagnostic cardiac catheterization in the clinical setting has diminished over the last years, due to the emergence of noninvasive imaging modalities, such as echocardiography, magnetic resonance imaging and computed tomography, catheterization for diagnostic reasons still constitutes a valuable tool in certain parts in the workup of pediatric heart disease. As a result,...
متن کاملTherapeutic Utilities of Pediatric Cardiac Catheterization
In an era when less invasive techniques are favored, therapeutic cardiac catheterization constantly evolves and widens its spectrum of usage in the pediatric population. The advent of sophisticated devices and well-designed equipment has made the management of many congenital cardiac lesions more efficient and safer, while providing more comfort to the patient.

Isolated cases of intracardiac therapy with a catheter had appeared as early as 19532; however, the balloon atrial septostomy developed by Dr. Rashkind and reported in 19663 was the first pediatric and th...
متن کاملPEDIATRIC CARDIOLOGY Complications Associated With Pediatric Cardiac Catheterization
Objectives. The aim of this study was to determine the relative risks of pediatric diagnostic, interventional and electrophysiologic catheterizations. Background. The role of the pediatric catheterization laboratory has evolved in the last decade as a therapeutic modality, although remaining an important tool for anatomic and hemodynamic diagnosis. Methods. A study of 4,952 consecutive pediatri...
متن کاملPercutaneous Common Carotid Artery Access for Pediatric Interventional Cardiac Catheterization.
BACKGROUND Surgical cutdown for access to the common carotid artery provides a more direct route for certain pediatric cardiac interventions and avoids femoral artery injury in small infants. The safety of percutaneous carotid access (PCA) in children is unknown. METHODS AND RESULTS Retrospective review of PCA at Texas Children's Hospital and Children's Healthcare of Atlanta. From July 2006 t...
