Study Notes
Evolution of Cardiac Catheterization Laboratory
- Balloon angioplasty, initiated in the late 1970s, had a success rate of 80% and an emergent coronary artery bypass graft surgery (CABG) rate of 3% to 5%.
Current Status of Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI)
- The current success rate of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) procedures is high, with reduced emergent CABG rates.
Purpose of Cardiac Catheterization Laboratory
- The primary purpose of the cardiac catheterization laboratory is to diagnose and treat cardiovascular diseases using invasive and non-invasive procedures.
Guidelines for Diagnostic Cardiac Catheterization
- The guidelines for diagnostic cardiac catheterization establish standards for indication, performance, and interpretation of cardiac catheterization procedures.
Evolution of Interventional Cardiology
- The evolution of the cardiac catheterization laboratory has led to the development of interventional cardiology, which focuses on percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI) and other minimally invasive procedures.
Challenges in Failed PCI Procedures
- Hemodynamic instability and patient discomfort during failed percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) procedures present challenges for anesthesiologists.
Historical Context of Balloon Angioplasty
- In the late 1970s, balloon angioplasty had emergent coronary artery bypass graft surgery (CABG) rates of 3% to 5%.
