Mehdi Ghaderian (2017) conducted a cross-sectional in Congenital or structural heart disease requiring cardiac catheterization (n=372). Cardiac catheterization was evaluated on Unpleasant side effects or bad early outcome during angiography (emboli, death, drug allergies, fever, bleeding, need for blood transfusion). Among 372 children undergoing cardiac catheterization, 5% experienced major adverse effects such as emboli, death, or severe bleeding, and 43% had transient arrhythmias.
