Feasibility and safety of the antecubital venous access for right heart catheterization in patients with pulmonary hypertension
Background The diagnosis of pulmonary arterial hypertension requires right heart catheterization (RHC) which is typically performed via proximal venous access (PVA). Antecubital venous access (AVA) is an alternative approach for RHC that can minimize complications, decrease procedural duration and a...
