Cardiac catheterization is an invasive procedure that uses a thin and flexible catheter tube. The procedure catheterization happens when the tube is led through a blood vessel.
Catheterization diagnoses and cures clogged arteries and irregular heartbeats. It also helps doctors fetch valuable information about the heart valves, muscles and blood vessels.
The procedure carries forward with a pediatric cardiologist conducting different heart examinations, delivering medications, or even removing a heart tissue for a quick review. Doctors may even go with coronary angioplasty and stenting using cardiac catheterization.
Cardiac catheterization requires specific medications to help you relax a bit. There are no complications associated with catheterization with quick recovery time.
