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 کاملComplications of cardiac catheterization in pediatric patients: a single center experience.
We analyzed 519 catheterization procedures performed over a period of two years retrospectively. Several risk factors related to the patient or catheterization were analyzed. The incidence of complications was 6.2%. The most common major and minor complications were arterial thrombosis that required intervention and transient arrhythmias, respectively. The incidence of complications during inte...
متن کامل[Vascular complications associated with radial artery access for cardiac catheterization].
Cardiac catheterization via the radial artery is associated with vascular complications, albeit less frequently than with the femoral approach. However, the management of these complications differs and is poorly described in the literature. We present our experience with vascular complications secondary to transradial access, with emphasis on their specific treatment. From January 2001 to Octo...
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 کامل[Unusual complications of cardiac catheterization via the radial artery].
Use of the radial artery for cardiac catheterization has significantly reduced the incidence and severity of complications at the access site. Nevertheless, occasionally unusual complications or atypical responses to treatment are observed. We describe two cases: a radial artery pseudoaneurysm that was unresponsive to compression treatment and a foreign-body inflammatory reaction at the radial ...
