The nurse will explain to the client is the catheterization will visualize the disease process in the coronary arteries. A cardiac catheterization delivers information on how well a heart works, recognizes problems and allows for procedures to open blocked arteries.

For example, during cardiac catheterization your doctor may:

<span> Gather up samples of blood to measure the oxygen content in the four chambers of your heart.

<span>Take X-rays using contrast dye injected over the catheter to look for narrowed or blocked coronary arteries. This is known as coronary arteriography or coronary angiography.
</span>
Assess the ability of the pumping chambers to contract.

Look for deficiencies in the valves or chambers of your heart.

Execute a percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) such as coronary angioplasty with stenting to open up narrowed or blocked segments of a coronary artery.

Check the compression in the four chambers of your heart.
Remove a small piece of heart tissue to examine under a microscope (biopsy).</span>
