Care after cerebral angiography

Cerebral angiography requires arterial puncture and postoperative pressure bandaging of the puncture site, or even the use of sandbags for pressure. Postoperative care includes the following points: 1. Position: lie flat for 8 hours after surgery, the punctured limb is braked, not immobile, and the non-punctured limb can be moved. If the puncture is mostly chosen from the right femoral artery, the right lower limb cannot be flexed and moved after surgery; 2. Diet: drink more water after surgery to accelerate the excretion of contrast agent; 3. Urination and defecation: lie in bed after surgery, and need to train bed urination and defecation; 4. Inform the doctor promptly if there is discomfort after surgery.
