Guest guest Posted April 25, 2001 Report Share Posted April 25, 2001 Hi, I'm doing a report of an abdominal aortogram and left renal artery angiogram and can't document a catheter and a guide wire: Contrast was injected and an abdominal aortogram was obtained. The 5-French pigtail catheter was then exchanged for a 7-French x 45 cm arrow sheath, which was advanced into the abdominal aorta. Then, a 5-French s/l *soss (or sauce) three* catheter was advanced over the guide wire and through the sheath into the abdominal aorta. The left renal artery was then catheterized with the s/l *soss (or sauce) three* catheter. I also don't know if it's III or 3 with this unknown catheter. He also dictates a : TAD guide wire. Is " TAD " all caps like I have it? If you can help, please email me as well as the group. Thanks so much! RT@... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
