Preparing a child for angiography involves several steps:
Explain the procedure: Use age-appropriate language to explain the procedure to the child and their parents. Fasting: Ensure the child fasts for the recommended period before the procedure. Pre-medication: Administer any necessary pre-medications, such as sedatives or antihistamines. Comfort measures: Provide comfort items, such as a favorite toy or blanket, to help the child feel more at ease.
