cardiac catheterization (cardiac cath or heart cath) is a procedure to examine how well your heart is working. a thin, hollow tube called a catheter is inserted into a large blood vessel that leads to your heart. a cardiac cath provides information on how well your heart works, identifies problems and allows for procedures to open blocked arteries. the doctor will make a needle puncture through your skin and into a large blood vessel. a small straw-sized tube (called a sheath) will be inserted into the vessel. the doctor will gently guide a catheter (a long, thin tube) into your vessel through the sheath. a video screen will show the position of the catheter as it is threaded through the major blood vessels and to the heart. you may feel some pressure in your groin, but you shouldn’t feel any pain.

the inferior vena cava is the lower ("inferior") of the two venae cavae, the two large veins that carry deoxygenated blood from the body to the right auricle of the heart: the inferior vena cava carries blood from the lower half of the body whilst the superior vena cava carries blood from the upper half of the body. together, the venae cavae (in addition to the coronary sinus, which carries blood from the muscle of the heart itself) form the venous counterparts of the aorta.
