into a cardiac chamber or laceration of an epicardial vessel. Chronic effusions are often clear yellow, occasionally serosanguineous, or less commonly, dark brown. Acute effusions resulting from trauma, cancer, or artery perforation are frankly bloody.
To confirm passage into the pericardial space, the stopcock can
be turned for transduction of pressure. In this manner, inadvertent ventricular puncture can be recognized at once. Of note, in cases of tamponade, pericardial pressure resembles atrial pressure. For further confirmation, agitated saline can be injected through the needle or catheter with simultaneous echocardiographic imaging to demon­strate location in the pericardial space (Fig. 7-21). If the needle or catheter is in a cardiac chamber (e.g., RV or LV), the bubbles will be seen in the cavity and then dispersed rapidly by ventricular ejection. Electrocardiographic guidance has been used historically, with the current of injury seen on contact with the epicardium (Figs. 7-22 and
7-23). Hemodynamic monitoring and echocardiography is now the
favored approach for pericardiocentesis.
When the needle or catheter is in the pericardial space, a guide-
wire is passed under fluoroscopy high into the pericardial space (transverse pericardial sinus) followed by an exchange for a multiple side-hole catheter (e.g., pigtail) or sheath. Pericardial and atrial pres­sures are measured, effusion is aspirated, and pressures are measured again after the pericardial space is empty (Fig. 7-24). Large syringes (>
50 cc) or a vacuum jar can be used to facilitate rapid removal of pericardial fluid. In the event of effusion due to cardiac perforation, the removed blood can be placed in a cell saver for return to the patient. If the position of the needle or catheter is uncertain, a small amount of radiographic contrast medium or agitated saline under echocardiographic guidance can be injected. Contrast medium pools in the dependent portion of the pericardial space but rapidly washes out of a vascular space if a cardiac chamber has been entered inadvertently.
Samples of the pericardial fluid should be sent to the labora­tory for appropriate chemistries, cultures, and cytology, as indicated by clinical presentation. The multiple side-hole catheter or sheath is left in place with a sterile dressing until serial echocardiography dem­onstrates no recurrent effusion. Catheter placement can cause resid­ual chest discomfort that can be treated with systemic analgesia or periodic injection of local anesthesia directly into the pericardial space.

Intravascular Foreign Body Retrieval
Catheter fragments can result from injudicious insertion or removal of catheters from the subclavian, jugular, peripheral (portacaths), or rarely, inferior vena caval approaches. Guidewire fragmentation, coro­nary stent loss, and embolization of structural devices (e.g., AMP­LATZER occluders) can also occur in the systemic arterial circulation during interventional procedures. Several catheter and wire loop systems have been designed to retrieve intravascular foreign bodies. Snares can have single (e.g., Amplatz GooseNeck, Covidien, Plymouth, MA) or multiple (e.g., EN Snare, Hatch Medical, Atlanta, GA; Multi­Snare Bi-Plane Design, B. Braun Interventional Systems, Inc.) loop configurations, with a range of sizes and steerability (Fig. 7-25). An intracoronary guidewire fragment can be retrieved from the coronary artery with the use of a loop passed through a small intracoronary guiding catheter. When performing such retrieval, it is important to note that the size of the vascular access sheath should be generous and based on the largest diameter of the foreign body, regardless of its orientation, that is anticipated to occur during removal. If the sheath is too small, severe vascular injury will occur during foreign body retrieval. A delivery catheter is advanced to the snaring site over a
0.035- or 0.038-inch wire. Tightening of the snare occurs with retrieval into the delivery catheter; this backward tension needs to be main­tained to avoid loss of capture of the foreign body. Examples of foreign body retrieval are shown in Figures 7-26 and 7-27.

High-Risk Cardiac Catheterization
MICHAEL FORSBERG • MICHAEL J. LIM
Since its inception, heart catheterization has evolved from a diagnos­tic modality used for hemodynamic assessment and visualization of the coronary anatomy and ventricular function to a therapeutic means to treat pathology, from atherosclerosis to congenital heart defects. More than 1 million heart catheterizations are performed in the United States each year. Complications for diagnostic procedures in the catheterization laboratory principally include death, myocar­dial infarction, stroke, vascular complications, contrast reactions, and arrhythmias. The rates for these complications are very low and have not changed over the past decade (Table 8-1). As the procedure con­tinues to mature, a comfort level has developed in performing proce­dures on higher-risk patients. It is becoming more common for patients to undergo multivessel (including left main) percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with hemodynamic support as an elective proce­dure within most catheterization laboratories.
High-Risk Patient: Definition
Patients classified as high risk are more likely to die or have complica­tions during cardiac catheterization than are other patients. Numerous studies have summarized the clinical and anatomic characteristics of patients at high risk (Table 8-2). Patients with high-risk features result­ing from stress testing, including ventricular dilatation with stress, large amounts of ischemic myocardium, multiple territories of isch­emia, and very poor exercise capacity, are at higher risk secondary to the higher likelihood for these patients to have multivessel or left main coronary disease. Patients with congestive heart failure (CHF), recent acute myocardial infarction, unstable angina, and severe valvular heart disease (especially critical aortic stenosis) have a high incidence of morbidity and mortality during and after cardiac catheterization.
Prevention of Complications
Meticulous attention to the precatheterization patient assessment and recognition of potential risks decreases procedure-related complications.
“The best complications are those that never occur.”

Patient Medications
Many medications can affect a patient’s catheterization risk (Box 8-1).
Warfarin (Coumadin) should be held for at least 72 hours before
the procedure, and the international normalized ratio (INR) should be <1.8 for femoral access and <2.2 for radial access before the procedure

to reduce the bleeding risk. Understanding why the patient has been taking warfarin is important because high-risk patients may require bridging therapy with heparin. Bridging should be considered for patients taking warfarin for atrial fibrillation with a CHADS 5 or 6, recent stroke within 3 months, or rheumatic heart disease. Patients on warfarin for mechanical heart valve with any mitral valve, older mechanical aortic valve (ball in cage, tilting disc), or recent stroke or transient ischemic attack (TIA) are considered to be high risk, as are patients taking warfarin for venous thromboembolism with any recent stroke or high-risk thrombophilia (protein C, protein S, or

antithrombin deficiencies; antiphospholipid; homozygous factor V Leiden or prothrombin genes).
Direct factor Xa inhibitors dabigitran (Pradaxa), rivaroxaban (Xarelto), and apixiban (Eliquis) are now more widely used for anti­coagulation, but they can increase procedural bleeding risk. Dabigi­tran should be discontinued 2 days before the procedure if creatinine clearance (CrCl)
50 mL/min and 5 days before if CrCl <50 mL/min.
Rivaroxaban should be discontinued 24 hours before the procedure, and apixiban should be discontinued 48 hours before.
Generally, diuretics should not be taken on the morning of the procedure because dehydration may decrease renal flow and increase the risk of contrast nephropathy and hypotension.
On the morning of the procedure, patients with diabetes should not take short-acting insulin. To avoid the risk of hypoglycemia, admin­ister one-half to two-thirds of the daily total (for once-daily-dosing patients) or morning insulin dose (for twice-daily-dosing patients) in the form of long-acting insulin. Oral antiglycemic agents should also be held on the morning of the procedure. Metformin poses a slight but real risk of lactic acidosis and should be held both before the proce­dure and 48 hours following contrast administration. Creatinine levels should be checked 2 to 3 days after the procedure, and metformin can be restarted if there is no evidence of decrement in renal function.
Because of sedation during the procedure, it is difficult to monitor the diabetic patient for signs/symptoms of hypoglycemia or hypergly­cemia. One should check blood sugar before initiation of the proce­dure and as needed throughout the case to minimize risk. If appropriate, the patient should have dextrose or insulin infusion maintained during the periprocedure period in an attempt to avoid hypoglycemia or hyperglycemia.
Erectile dysfunction medications can also cause significant harm in the catheterization laboratory. When combined with nitrate therapy, there can be a precipitous drop in blood pressure that does not respond well to volume or vasopressor resuscitation. Therefore, silde­nafil (Viagra) and vardenafil (Levitra) should be held for a minimum of 24 hours before the procedure. Tadalafil (Cialis) has a half-life of
17.5 hours and must be held for 4 days before the procedure.
Radiographic Contrast Media
Contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN), the number one cause of acute renal failure in hospitalized patients, increases morbidity and mortal­ity. The pathogenesis is not completely understood but is felt to involve acute tubular necrosis (ATN). Hypotheses regarding the cause of ATN include direct toxic effects of contrast and renal vasoconstriction leading to medullary hypoxia.
Multiple contrast agents are currently available, and differen­tiating between them requires knowledge of their characteristics and recognition of their chemical and trade names (Table 8-3).
