Cardiac Catheterization
Criteria for Cardiac Catheterization
1. The Mayo Clinic recommends cardiac catheterization for all adults and adolescents to quantify the degree of pulmonary vascular obstruction, except in those who clearly appear to have a small VSD.
2. Infants suspected of having a large defect should undergo cardiac catheterization in the first year of life which should allow surgical correction prior to the onset of permanent pulmonary vascular obstructive disease.
2008 ACC/AHA Guidelines for the Management of Adults With Congenital Heart Disease (DO NOT EDIT)[1]
Recommendations for Cardiac Catheterization (DO NOT EDIT)[1]
| Class I |
| "1. Cardiac catheterization to assess the operability of adults with ventricular septal defect (VSD) and pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) should be performed in an adult congenital heart disease (ACHD) regional center in collaboration with experts. (Level of Evidence: C) " |
| Class IIa |
| "1. Cardiac catheterization can be useful for adults with VSD in whom noninvasive data are inconclusive and further information is needed for management. Data to be obtained include the following:" |
| "a. Quantification of shunting. (Level of Evidence: B)" |
| "b. Assessment of pulmonary pressure and resistance in patients with suspected PAH. Reversibility of PAH should be tested with various vasodilators. (Level of Evidence: B) " |
| "c. Evaluation of other lesions such as aortic regurgitation (AR) and double-chambered right ventricle. (Level of Evidence: C) " |
| "d. Determination of whether multiple VSDs are present before surgery. (Level of Evidence: C)" |
| "e. Performance of coronary arteriography is indicated in patients at risk for coronary artery disease. (Level of Evidence: C)" |
| "f. VSD anatomy, especially if device closure is contemplated. (Level of Evidence: C)" |
Recommendation for Interventional Catheterization (DO NOT EDIT) [1]
| Class IIb |
| "1. Device closure of a muscular VSD may be considered, especially if the VSD is remote from the tricuspid valve and the aorta, if the VSD is associated with severe left-sided heart chamber enlargement, or if there is PAH. (Level of Evidence: C)" |
