Resumen
64
Development of card iovascu lar surgical techniques and more recently, baloon angioplasty, has resulted in a dramatic increase in the number of cardiac catheterizations performed.
Previously, the usual policy was to admit the patient to the hospital for several days. Various series of patients submitted to ambulatory cardiac catheterizations have revealed that this procedure con be performed safely, with a potential reduction in hospital and patients costs, better utilization of medical beds and good image quality. In this study we present our initial experience in this kind of outpatient procedure.
