Abstract:
Given the increasing demand for interventional image-guided procedures, radiologists are increasingly sollicited by clinicians to participate in the management of patients prior to and after the interventional procedure, especially with regards to hemostasis. Therefore, radiologists should be familiar with the risk of procedure related hemorrhage. Based on consensus guidelines published by the Society of Interventional Radiology (SIR), the risk of hemorrhage for each interventional procedure will be classified. Recommendations for preprocedure testing based on the type of procedure planned will be reviewed. Finally, limitations of hemostasis parameters will be discussed along with management of anticoagulants and antiplatelet agents before the procedure.
