Complications of Cardiac Catheterization
Because all cardiac catheterizations involve the insertion of foreign objects (i.e., cardiac catheters) into the circulatory system, it should not be surprising that a variety of adverse events (complications) can ensue. These complications range from minor problems with no long-term sequelae (e.g., transient bradycardia during coronary contrast injection) to major problems [e.g., cardiac perfo...
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 کاملComplications of pediatric cardiac catheterization: a 3-year study.
To determine the current risk of pediatric cardiac catheterization, the complications and incidents of all catheterizations performed in a pediatric laboratory between January 1986 and October 1988 were prospectively recorded and compared with results from a 1974 study from the same institution. In the current study 1,037 catheterizations, 885 diagnostic and 152 diagnostic/interventional proced...
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. Nowadays, a large variety of hear...
متن کاملPediatric and congenital therapeutic cardiac catheterization.
T he concept that a catheter could be used for intracardiac therapy was first put into practice in 19641 with the dilation of acquired peripheral vascular stenosis by graduated rigid dilators. 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...
