Common procedures and strategies for anaesthesia in interventional radiology

Abstract: Cases in interventional radiology are complex in terms of the logistics of working in an unfamiliar area, frequency of patient comorbidity and unfamiliar procedures. Ensuring familiarity with the variety of interventional radiology procedures and their periprocedure requirements can increase anaesthesiologists' comfort in interventional radiology.

“…This is a result of IR physicians performing increasingly complex procedures on patients who are progressively sicker and have multiple coexisting health conditions, necessitating the attainment of deeper levels of sedation during these interventions. [ 4 , 5 ] For patients undergoing procedures under MAC, a physician anesthesiologist performs a pre-procedure assessment and is subsequently present in the procedure room or oversees a certified registered nurse anesthetist during the procedure.…”

“…Sclerotherapy for vascular malformations requires at the very least deep sedation in the paediatric setting as increased pain and swelling related to the procedure are commonplace [5]. Among vascular malformations, venous malformations are the most common form with an incidence of 1–5 in 10,000 [6].…”

“…nterventional radiology (IR) procedures are becoming more complex with advancements in minimally invasive techniques, rise of comorbidities, and increasing use of moderate sedation performed at the direction of a nonanesthesiologist (1)(2)(3). Older patients and patients with complex medical conditions who are ineligible for or considered too high risk for surgical procedures are progressively referred to the IR suite.…”
