Cardiac Catheterization is a minimally invasive procedure used to diagnose and treat cardiovascular conditions. It involves inserting a thin, flexible tube called a catheter into a blood vessel, typically in the wrist or groin, and guiding it to the heart. This procedure allows for a detailed examination of the heart's chambers, valves, and coronary arteries.
Through Cardiac Catheterization, doctors can measure blood pressure and oxygen levels in the heart, perform biopsies, and evaluate the heart's pumping function. It also enables the identification of blockages or other abnormalities in the coronary arteries.
Dr. Sharma performs Cardiac Catheterization in a specialized catheterization lab. The procedure is generally done under local anesthesia, and patients remain awake but comfortable. After numbing the insertion site, a catheter is gently threaded through the blood vessels to the heart. Using advanced imaging techniques, Dr. Sharma guides the catheter to collect necessary diagnostic information.
In some cases, Cardiac Catheterization can be combined with other procedures such as angioplasty or stent placement to treat identified blockages. The procedure typically takes about 30 minutes to an hour, and most patients can return home the same day.
