Overview
Cardiac Catheterization
ACC/AHA 2008 Guidelines - Recommendation for Catheterization before Fontan Procedure - Tricuspid atresia (DO NOT EDIT)
| Class I |
| "1.In the evaluation of hemodynamics to assess the potential for definitive palliation of unoperated or shunt-palliated adults with univentricular hearts, catheterization is indicated to: |
| "a.Assess the nature of pulmonary artery obstruction, with potential to restore maximal continuous, effective, unimpeded systemic venous flow to the maximal number of pulmonary artery segments.(Level of Evidence: C) " |
| "b.Assess and eliminate systemic-to-pulmonary vein collaterals.(Level of Evidence: C) " |
| "c.Assess and eliminate systemic-to-pulmonary artery connections.(Level of Evidence: C) " |
| "d.For adults with systemic-to-pulmonary shunts, the potential for perioperative transcatheter shunt exclusion should be examined.(Level of Evidence: C) " |
ACC/AHA Guidelines - Recommendation for Diagnostic and Interventional Catheterization after Fontan Procedure (DO NOT EDIT)
| Class I |
| "1.Catheterization of adults with a Fontan type of repair of single-ventricle physiology should be performed in regional centers with expertise in ACHD.(Level of Evidence: C) " |
