With proper pharmacotherapy and optimization of overall clinical status, most patients will be able to overcome the problem of orthopnea for the duration of interventional procedure. Diuretic therapy preintervention may be useful. In the very ill patient with hemodynamic compromise, and where intervention may lead to an improvement in cardiac function, supportive measure, such as intra-aortic balloon counterpulsation, pressure monitoring, or ventilation may be necessary during the acute phase of the illness.
