new to cardiac cath - 2dogs
Posted: Nov 01, 2009
I am new MT (sort of). I am doing a cardiac cath from an ESL with marbles in his mouth. This is a false positive stress test, and I am going nuts with one phrase. It is:
"The left 
anterior descending artery was large, 5 mm in diameter. (s/l tran sif ico) was mildly tortuous but no focal lesions."
I googled the phrase and found it, and was led to this site, but it is not here. Anybody have a clue on the (s/l trans sif ico)?

After that, we placed 2.75 x 30-mm Resolute drug-eluting stent We used a 3.75 EBU guiding catheter selectively engaged left main and the same sport wire was advanced ...
