Preface
https://t.me/med1917
The techniques of cardiac catheterization, coronary angiography, and cardiovascular percutaneous interventions (PCIs) have seen dramatic evolution during the last 25 years. Nonetheless, the basic approaches to cardiac catheterization remain unchanged and central to the safe performance of procedures. The catheterization laboratory is now a major theater of operation for nonsurgical, percutaneous valve replace­ment and other structural heart repair that was previously provided only by open heart surgery. Percutaneous coronary revascularization for chronically occluded diseased vessels is a feat that likely was never imagined by Dr. Gruentzig, the pioneer of PCI.
The complex nature of catheterization laboratory technology and techniques requires study and a clear understanding by everyone involved to perform the procedure in a safe and complete manner. As with the earlier editions, the purpose of the sixth edition of The Cardiac Catheterization Handbook is to provide a basic, straightforward, and practical explanation of the cardiac catheterization laboratory and its procedures. It is written for nurses, technologists, students, physician trainees, physicians in practice, and anyone needing to know what catheterization is all about.
What’s new to this edition? Because the field is replete with new techniques and procedures, it is an honor for me to have the assistance of two new co-editors: Drs. Michael Lim from Saint Louis University and Paul Sorajja from the Minneapolis Heart Institute. Their experi­ence and in-depth practical knowledge of the catheterization labora­tory will keep this and future editions current and practical. With the excellent contributions from my co-editors, substantial revisions and updates are now incorporated herein.
The sixth edition is reorganized, refreshed, and, we believe, as up to date as a handbook can be. Obsolete or outdated discussions and methods have been replaced with the latest information. In Chapter 1, The Cardiac Catheterization Laboratory, the focus is on procedural indications, patient evaluation and preparation, strategies for team­work, function of the imaging system, basic pharmacology, and cre­dentialing requirements. Descriptions on how the procedure should flow, what steps should be learned first, how to approach patients undergoing this often frightening test, how to be part of the catheter­ization laboratory team, and similar work matters are presented. New sections address recent requirements concerning conscious sedation, “time outs,” informed consent, and workplace safety.
The technique of vascular access (Chapter 2) remains among the most critically important areas, with radial artery access strongly emphasized. The newest femoral vascular closure devices are briefly presented. In addition to common and standard methods, multiple techniques for large-bore sheaths and radial access are described in more detail. The chapter also covers the diagnosis and manage­ment of periprocedural bleeding, for which adverse outcomes have been increasingly recognized. In subsequent sections, angiography (Chapter 3) focuses the reader on imaging projections, anatomic find­ings, anomalous arteries, ventriculography, and clinical application of

Preface
fractional flow reserve (FFR), intravascular ultrasound (IVUS), and optical coherence tomography (OCT). Radiation safety, the generation of the radiographic image with the use of modern flat-panel image detectors, and issues related to radiographic contrast media are highlighted.
A detailed discussion of hemodynamic data and their correct acquisition and interpretation (Chapter 4) remains a steadfast compo­nent, with new pressure tracings reviewed. Chapter 5, Peripheral Artery Disease, Angiography, and Intervention, explains the diagnosis and management of peripheral artery disease in the catheterization laboratory and includes an examination of peripheral anatomy, the role of adjunctive noninvasive testing, a description of various path­ologies, and a synopsis of state-of-the-art peripheral interventional therapies.
The chapter on electrophysiologic testing and device use in the catheterization laboratory (Chapter 6) is updated with new modalities of remote guidance of electrophysiology catheters and electrophysi­ologic arrhythmia ablations. For individuals working in electrophysiol­ogy laboratories and fellows entering this area while in training, this section provides an excellent basic framework for understanding when and how these very specialized procedures should be used.
The second half of the Handbook is dedicated to special tech­niques, starting with Chapter 7. Identification and management of high-risk patients in the cardiac catheterization laboratory is elemen­tary to the practice, and in Chapter 8, Complications and Mana­gement of the High-Risk Patient, the authors describe numerous potential complications and strategies to minimize their occurrence. Highlighted are approaches for advanced hemodynamic support in the periprocedural period including pharmacologic management, intraaortic balloon pump (IABP) use, and percutaneous ventricular assist devices.
Chapter 9, Research Techniques, provides a detailed description
of current areas of catheterization laboratory research, with an empha­sis on their clinical relevance. Techniques described include sophisti­cated methods for assessing coronary flow, vessel histology, and ventricular function. Chapter 10, Interventional Cardiology Proce­dures, provides an elementary understanding of commonly performed therapeutic interventions for both coronary arteries and structural heart disease. These therapies include basic and complex coronary intervention, structural heart procedures (including transcatheter valve therapies), and congenital defect closure. Adjunctive imaging with echocardiography, where relevant to practice in the catheteriza­tion laboratory, is described also. The documentation section in the last chapter (Chapter 11) is worth reviewing for nurses and physicians alike. The understanding of quality systems and its metrics, appropri­ate professional documentation, and risk management in the cardiac catheterization laboratory are critical to good operations.
Speaking for the three of us, our goal for the Handbook is to provide a state-of-the-art plain-spoken resource for use in the cardiac catheterization laboratory. This achievement is made possible only with the help of many colleagues, teachers, and mentors. These indi­viduals have taught us not only the practice but also the importance of inquiry and humility while having the privilege to care for patients in the cardiac catheterization laboratory and beyond. We are deeply indebted to all of these individuals, many of whom continue to teach us both in and out of the catheterization laboratory today.

The Catheterization Laboratory
MORTON J. KERN
Cardiac catheterization is the insertion and passage of small plastic tubes (catheters) into arteries and veins to the heart to obtain x-ray pictures (angiography) of coronary arteries and cardiac chambers and to measure pressures in the heart (hemodynamics). The cardiac cath­eterization laboratory performs angiography to obtain images not only of coronary arteries to diagnose coronary artery disease but also to look for abnormalities of the aorta, pulmonary, and peripheral vessels. In addition to providing diagnostic information, the cardiac catheter­ization laboratory performs catheter-based interventions (e.g., angio­plasty with stent implantation, now called percutaneous coronary intervention [PCI]) or catheter-based treatments of structural heart disease for both acute and chronic cardiovascular illness. Table 1-1 lists procedures that can be performed with coronary angiogra­phy. Figure 1-1 shows common vascular access routes for cardiac catheterization.
Indications for Cardiac Catheterization
Cardiac catheterization is used to identify atherosclerotic coronary or peripheral artery disease, abnormalities of heart muscle (infarction or cardiomyopathy), and valvular or congenital heart abnormalities. In adults the procedure is used most commonly to diagnose coronary artery disease. Other indications depend on the history, physical examination, electrocardiogram (ECG), cardiac stress test, echocar­diographic results, and chest radiograph. Indications for cardiac cath­eterization are summarized in Table 1-2.
Elective Procedures
For most patients, diagnostic cardiac catheterization is performed as an elective procedure. It should be deferred if the patient is not pre­pared either psychologically or physically.
Urgent Procedures
If the patient’s condition is unstable because of a suspected cardiac disorder, such as acute myocardial infarction, catheterization must proceed. In the event of decompensated congestive heart failure (CHF) in patients with acute unstable coronar y syndromes, rapid medical management is needed. Although a patient must be able to lie flat for easy catheter passage, patients with acute cardiac decom­pensation may benefit more from aggressive management in the cath­eterization laboratory where intubation, intraaortic balloon pumping or other mechanical support devices, and vasopressors can be insti­tuted rapidly before angiography and a rapid decision made for revascularization.

Contraindications
Contraindications to cardiac catheterization include fever, anemia, electrolyte imbalance (especially hypokalemia predisposing to arrhythmias), and other systemic illnesses needing stabilization (Box 1-1). The clinical necessity of cardiac catheterization also should be carefully considered when the diagnostic information or therapeu­tic intervention from the procedure would not meaningfully impact the management of a patient.

Complications and Risks
For diagnostic catheterization, an analysis of the complications in more than 200,000 patients indicated the incidences of risks: death, ~0.2%; myocardial infarction, ~0.05%; stroke, ~0.07%; serious ventricu­lar arrhythmia, ~0.5%; and major vascular complications (thrombosis, bleeding requiring transfusion, or pseudoaneurysm), ~1% (Box 1-2 and
Table 1-3). Vascular complications occurred more often when the
brachial approach was used and least when the radial approach was used. Risks are increased in well-described subgroups (Box 1-3).
Catheterization Laboratory Data
Information gathered during the cardiac catheterization can be divided into two categories: hemodynamic (see Chapter 4) and

angiographic (see Chapter 3). Electrophysiologic data are addressed in Chapter 6). The term cineangiography describes the x-ray photogra­phy of cardiac structures from the era when film was the recording medium. Use of this term (i.e., “cine”) persists even though the images are now stored electronically on digital computer imaging media (e.g., CD-ROM) rather than on celluloid film. The digital “cineangiogram” provides anatomic information about the chambers of the heart and the coronary arteries. Hemodynamic information is recorded from catheters inside the heart and consists of pressure tracings in a
