Explanation:

The procedure used for the treatment and diagnosis of cardiovascular diseases is known as cardiac catheterization.The process of cardiac catheterization involves the insertion of a catheter in an artery or vein located in the neck, groin or arm and this is ultimately connected to the blood vessels that are located in the heart. There are several kinds of complications that may result after cardiac catheterization and one of them is infiltration which can lead to edema and tenderness near the site where the catheter is inserted.Since the client complains of tenderness and there is the formation of edema at the site of catheterization this is a case of infiltration.
