Intervention/exposure
Study type
Interventional
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
No fasting requirements of solids or liquids.
Patients in the interventional group are allowed to eat and drink as they please.
Patients will be questioned as to the last time of food and drink intake prior to the procedure.

This will be for pacemaker and defibrillator procedures as well as diagnostic and interventional cardiac angiography procedures.

Structural heart disease interventions, requirement for calcium modification therapy, electrophysiology studies and cardiac resynchronisation therapy procedures will be excluded
Intervention code [1] 324758 0
Treatment: Other
Comparator / control treatment
Solid food fasting for 6 hours prior to catheterisation laboratory procedure.
Clear liquid fasting for 2 hours prior to catheterisation laboratory procedure.

Patients will be questioned about last food and drink intake.
Control group
