• Aspiration

  We introduced a 5F sheath into the right radial artery, but, because of severe arterial spasm, we could not aspirate blood from the sheath or retract it. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

• Heart Disease

  OBJECTIVE: Aim of the present study was to determine the prevalence of coronary artery anomalies in children with congenital heart disease. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  Different types of CT scans are employed for the diagnosis of heart diseases such as coronary heart disease, heart attack, congestive heart failure, and congenital heart disease and these include: Calcium-score screening heart scan Coronary CT angiography [animedicalgroup.com]

• Fear

  […] is effective for reducing the fear and anxiety of patients undergoing coronary angiography. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  The stochastic risk is purely probabilistic and as such often minimized, but is feared as it is linked to cancer induction. Nobody cares really until one learns that a colleague has developed a neoplasm. [uscjournal.com]

• Urinary Retention

  At the entrance hours, 3, 6, 8, and 24 hours after the angiography, the patients in both groups were evaluated in terms of groin pain, low back pain, urinary retention, discomfort, and vascular complications. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

• Encephalopathy

• Aphasia

  It may manifest with encephalopathy, motor and sensory disturbances; vision disturbances, including cortical blindness, ophthalmoplegia, aphasia; and seizures. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

The principal indications for referral were: pre-transplant workup (73%) and chest pain work up (19%). In the pre-transplant assessment group (n 19), 10 CCTAs showed no/ mild disease, 3 were non-diagnostic, 6 showed obstructive disease. [anzsnasm.com]

Recently the ESC and AHA addressed appropriate treatments for ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) patients with out-of-hospital cardiac arrest. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Although moderate or large increase in SCr following CAG was relatively rare, the prognosis is more serious, and is worse than that of pre-existing renal dysfunction. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

It is used for disorders such as: cardiac insufficiency of uncertain etiology acute myocardial infarction (with/without ST segment elevation in the ECG) coronary heart disease stable/unstable angina circulation problems in the coronary arteries ventricular [helios-gesundheit.de]
