A member asked:
What type of blood test will they do before having my cardiac ablation?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Simple Stuff: Mostly, they're just looking for risks from the sedation and risks of bleeding. A complete blood count, basic metabolic panel and a coagulation test called an inr are usually about it. If you're a woman, of course, there will be the standard pregnancy test since xray is involved.
