Incidence and Clinical Significance of Ischemic Stroke Following Cardiac Catheterization
Although rare, IS following cardiac catheterization is associated with significant morbidity and mortality. Avoiding unnecessary internal thoracic artery angiography and the brachial approach may reduce the incidence, and appropriate use of anticoagulants or thrombolytics may improve the prognosis and decrease residual neurological deficits.
