Cardiac catheterization
Cardiac catheterization involves inserting a catheter into the heart to view coronary artery anatomy and function. A contrast agent is injected to visualize the arteries under fluoroscopy. The procedure assesses coronary artery disease and collects data on heart structures and pressures. It begins with patient preparation and sterile technique before puncturing an artery to insert the catheter for imaging coronary arteries and ventricles. The procedure provides diagnostic information and is completed when the cardiologist has the needed views, after which the patient must rest.
Biplane cath lab
A biplane cath lab uses two x-ray imaging systems positioned at an angle to each other to capture images of the heart from two views simultaneously, allowing for faster and more efficient cardiac examinations and procedures like angiograms, stents, and pacemaker implants compared to a single plane system, though biplane systems have a higher cost.
Cardiac catheterization at a glance (including instruments, view, dye)
1. Cardiac catheterization involves inserting flexible tubes into the heart chambers under fluoroscopic guidance for diagnostic or therapeutic purposes. It was first performed in animals in 1844 and in humans in 1929.
2. Diagnostic catheterization provides hemodynamic and anatomical data to evaluate congenital heart defects. Therapeutic uses include closing defects, valvuloplasty, angioplasty, and pacemaker insertion. Prognostic catheterization assesses outcomes after procedures.
3. Equipment includes catheters, guidewires, sheaths, and fluoroscopy. Vascular access is typically through the femoral vessels. Precautions are taken to prevent complications like infection, bleeding, or arrhythmia.
