HOW LONG WILL THE PROCEDURE TAKE
The procedures take approximately 40–60 minutes. From time to time, the Cardiology Department can experience delays due to the nature of illnesses we deal with and cases which need urgent attention. We do our best to minimise delays and to keep you informed.
PREPARATION FOR THE PROCEDURE
A light breakfast (e.g.: tea and toast) may be taken on the morning of the procedure unless instructed to fast.
Additional blood thinning medication may be prescribed for you to take before and after the procedure.
You will be admitted to the hospital. Most people stay in hospital overnight after the procedure.
Usually two intravenous (IV) lines are placed in a vein in your arm to give fluids and medication as needed during the procedure.
MEDICATION
When arranging your appointment, please tell us about any medication you are taking and discuss any instructions with your doctor.
Unless your doctor tells you differently, medications should be taken as usual.
If you are taking anticoagulants (blood thinners such as Warfarin) you should receive special advice from the doctor when this test is being organised.
