Abstract

          Cardiac catheterization is a special procedure which is very important and useful for diagnosis and treatment. Cardiac catheterization can help children with congenital heart disease by increasing their survival rates. Therapeutic cardiac catheterization can replace some cardiac surgeries that are not very complicated. However, there may also be complications or risks before or after cardiac catheterization, that can lead to death. Pediatric nurses should have knowledge and skill in caring for children following the principles of caring for children undergoing therapeutic cardiac catheterization by monitoring patients to reduce adverse symptoms and complications that may occur in order to increase the quality of nursing care.
            This paper addressed information related to children admitted to a hospital for therapeutic cardiac catheterization, including the nursing care before and after cardiac catheterization, complications of cardiac catheterization, discharge planning, and a case study.
