Yes, if necessary, more than one cardiac catheterization can be done in one week. More than one in one or two days may be dangerous, however, because the dye used during the test can cause kidney damage in susceptible people.

Some examples of why more than one cardiac catheterizations may need to be performed could be re-occlusion of an angioplastied or stented vessel, vessel aneurysm or dissection, or another myocardial infarction within that time period.

How much do heart surgeon doctors get paid a week?

Around $4000 an hour. Now it depends on how many hours the doc can concentrate per week. And how many patients/hospitals trust him. A heart surgery is usually done by a team of docs. Dont forget, Most Heart Surgeons cannot usually concentrate after 45, so peak time of their life would be 30 to 45
