Introduction into clinical practice of transradial coronary angiography (CA) made it possible to conduct the procedure in outpatients and thus increase number of CA and diminish its cost. Aim of the study was to assess possibility, safety and economical efficacy of outpatient CA. Between April 2004 and August 2007 CA was carried out in 133 outpatients without overt heart failure, unstable angina, complex disturbances of cardiac rhythm or conduction. Comparison group comprised 187 patients subjected to CA within framework of short term hospitalization program. There were no complications associated with the use of either transradial or transfemoral approach. Total average cost of outpatient CA was 19% less than that of inhospital CA. Thus outpatient CA with transradial approach appears to be safe and effective procedure with low risk of complications in patients with stable ischemic heart disease. |
