Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
Because a catheter is introduced into the heart, a risk exists of catheter-induced arrhythmias occurring during the procedure. These are usually transient. Hypostatic pneumonia, congestive heart failure, and rapidly increasing blood pressure are not risks usually associated with cardiac catheterization.

Answer to Question 2

53. ANS: C
54. ANS: D
55. ANS: B
56. ANS: A
