Nausea: The short answer is “yes”. However, the causes could be related to several things including medications administered to you during and after the procedure. You should contact the physician who perform the procedure.

Ablation : Not usually although some time the anesthesia can cause some residual nausea . Call your cardiologist review any new medications or other symptoms.

Sort of: Generally speaking, patients who are nauseous the day after having a cardiac ablation are experiencing side effects of the sedative medications used for anesthesia during the procedure, not a direct complication of the procedure itself.
