Abstract:
Cardiac catheterization is a procedure by which information is obtained from the heart by passing fine plastic tubes (occasionally other instruments) either near to or within the heart, to introduce contrast to cardiac structures to understand their anatomy and function better, to measure pressures, and/or to measure oxygen saturations in different cardiac chambers. It is an extraordinarily useful diagnostic procedure. Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is the modern term for an intervention on a coronary artery that relieves narrowing. It includes balloon angioplasty and stent insertion

Abstract:
The central role of thrombin in the process of clot formation makes it an important therapeutic target. Heparin is a potent anticoagulant, but has a number of limitations, in that—for example—it does not bind clot-bound thrombin, activates platelets, and may determine heparin-induced thrombocytopenia (HIT). Bivalirudin and argatroban, which belong to the class of intravenous direct thrombin inhibitors, overcome many of the limitations of heparin. Bivalirudin is currently indicated for patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention, patients with non-ST-segment elevation acute coronary
