How long do you usually need to rest after a cardiac imaging

After cardiography, it is usually necessary to rest for 6 to 12 hours before performing daily activities.
Cardiography is the clinical coronary angiography test, which is invasive but less traumatic, and is a minimally invasive procedure that enters the body through the radial artery or the femoral artery of the lower limb using a puncture needle, and then enters the heart through a guide wire, etc., to observe whether the three main blood vessels of the heart are open, the degree of blockage, and whether a stent is needed to be implanted, so as to determine the presence or absence of coronary artery disease.
After the examination, pressure is applied to the wound to stop bleeding, and if there is no bleeding and the vital signs are stable after 6 hours, daily activities can be performed at this time. If there is bleeding, continue to rest for a period of time, usually after 12 hours can be recovered. To summarize, daily activities can be carried out after 6 to 12 hours of rest, and weight-bearing is not recommended in the short term at the puncture site.
