Overview
Cardiac catheterization
ACC / AHA 2008 Guidelines- Recommendation for Catheter Interventions for Adults - Ebstein’s Anomaly of the Tricuspid Valve (DO NOT EDIT)
| Class I |
| "1. Adults with Ebstein’s anomaly should have catheterization performed at centers with expertise in catheterization and management of such patients. (Level of Evidence: C) " |
- Cardiac catheterization is not routinely done these days to diagnose Ebstein's anomaly. This is so, because the echocardiogram along with doppler are able to identify lesions with great confidence.
Indications for catheterization are-
- If closure of a atrial septal defect is considered
- For preoperative coronary artery assessment.
