Home-My Child Is Having A Heart Cat...
Heart catheterization, also known as cardiac catheterization, is a medical procedure used to diagnose and treat certain heart conditions. It involves inserting a thin, flexible tube called a catheter into a blood vessel, usually in the groin or arm, and guiding it to the heart. This allows doctors to perform diagnostic tests such as angiography to visualize the heart's blood vessels, measure pressures within the heart, and evaluate heart function. Additionally, therapeutic interventions like angioplasty, stent placement, or valve repair can be performed during the procedure. It is a minimally invasive method providing critical information and treatment options for various cardiac issues.
