Urinary Tract Infection: Risk Factors. Persons with indwelling urinary catheters are at much higher risk of becoming sick with urinary tract infections. People with indwelling catheters have a 40x increased risk of becoming bacteremic (bacteria in the bloodstream) from a urinary infection than those who do not have catheters (1).
The risks of cardiac catheterization procedures include having a heart attack, a stroke, a severe arrhythmia, blood clots that may travel to the leg or brain, infection, bleeding especially where the catheter goes into the body or allergies such as an allergic response to the contrast dye.
