DOI: 10.1001/jamacardio.2021.3478
Abstract: Importance Enhanced ventricular interdependence is a highly sensitive and specific criterion for the diagnosis of constrictive pericarditis (CP), but simultaneous ventricular measurements can be challenging at cardiac catheterization. Ejection times (ETs) correlate with stroke volumes… read more here.

Timing of sedation and patient‐reported pain outcomes during cardiac catheterization: Results from the UNTAP‐intervention study
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2023 at "Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions"
DOI: 10.1002/ccd.30535
Abstract: Invasive cardiac catheterization (CC) temporarily increases pain, discomfort, and anxiety. Procedural sedation is deployed to mitigate these symptoms, though practice varies. Research evaluating peri‐procedural patient‐reported outcomes is lacking. read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ccd.30539
Abstract: Over the latest years, the use of distal radial access (dTRA), also called “snuffbox,” has become more and more popular for cardiac catheterization. Indeed, dTRA has several advantages compared to the traditional proximal radial approach,… read more here.
