List Diagnostics – C
The introduction of a catheter through an artery or vein into the heart cavity provides information on the magnitude of the pressure, the nature of the blood flow, the oxygenation of blood obtained from different chambers, and when introducing a contrast agent and subsequent cardioangiography, evaluate the morphological features. These studies make it possible to obtain high-precision information on morphological and functional changes in the heart and to solve various diagnostic, and increasingly, therapeutic problems.
Cardiac resuscitation is less favorable in outcomes than pulmonary, as the cardiac arrest quickly stops respiratory function.
Cardiac catheterization is performed by puncture and percutaneous insertion of the catheter into the vessel - peripheral vein (ulnar, subclavian, jugular, femoral) for the right heart or artery (shoulder, femoral, axillary, radial) for the left heart.
Capillaroscopy is a method of visual examination of capillaries in vivo. The full name of the method is wide-field capillaroscopy of the nail bed. The study is carried out with a small increase in the microscope (x12-40), the object of observation is the distal row of capillaries of the nail bed (eponymichia).
