Help with results of Cardiac Cath
by rhyoung, Oct 21, 2007 07:39PM
I need a little help with the results that I got from my Cardiac Cath. I meet with the cardiologist in a week but I wanted to get some feedback about my results from anyone who may understand them. Here are the results.
1) Low normal to normal systemic arterial pressure.
2) Normal left ventricular systolic function
3) No coronary artery disease evident by this method
4) Clinical correlation for overall clinical symptoms suggested.
The one I have the biggest question about is #3. Does it mean I have no plaque buildup at all in my arteries or does it mean I have no plaque buildup greater than 50% blockage.
Please give me any feedback you may have.
Thanks,
