title: [Ambulatory angiography].
abstract: Outpatient angiography is justified in selected cases; patients with risk factors must be excluded. The examination should be performed as atraumatically as possible. After angiography, the patient should be kept under observation for at least 6 hours, since most complications occur during or shortly after the intervention. Only vary rarely do complications develop after the patient has been discharged, the most serious being late hemorrhage. Facilities for rapid treatment must be provided.
