A nurse is providing preoperative teaching for a client who is having a left-sided cardiac catheterization.

Which of the following information should the nurse include in the teaching?

"You will receive a general anesthetic during the procedure.".

"You should plan to remain in bed for 18 hours after the procedure.".

"You should expect a warm sensation after the injection of the contrast dye during the procedure.".

"You will have blood pressure measurements every 5 minutes for the first 2 hours after the procedure.".

Answer and Explanation

The Correct Answer is C

“You should expect a warm sensation after the injection of the contrast dye during the procedure.” During cardiac catheterization, a contrast dye is injected into the body to highlight blood flow through the arteries and show blockages in the blood vessels that lead to the heart.
This can cause a warm sensation.
Choice A is incorrect because usually, patients are awake during cardiac catheterization but are given medications to help them relax.
Choice B is incorrect because recovery time for a cardiac catheterization is quick.
Choice D is incorrect because there is no information found to support this statement.
