ABSTRACT
Background:
There are guidelines about equipment, premises, personnel, indications and complications rates for coronary angiography, that every center performing this procedure should adhere.Aim:
To report the experience with 5.000 coronary angiographies and to assess the compliance of the center with the current guidelines. Material andmethods:
Prospective registry of 5.000 patients aged 60±11 years (3.475 males) subjected to coronary angiography since 1992, assessing all aspects of the procedure with special emphasis on complications.Results:
The indications for 80 percent of procedures was suspected coronary atherosclerosis. The main risk factors were hypertension and smoking. Coronary atherosclerosis was demonstrated in 62 percent, mainly one vessel disease. These were two deaths due to the procedure (0.04 percent), three patients (0.06 percent) had an acute myocardial infarction or a stroke. These figures are lower than referential values.Conclusions:
In this center, coronary angiography is a safe procedure, with complications rates that are even lower than referential values.
