Breaking Fasts Ahead of Cardiac Caths

The goal of this clinical trial is to find out whether fasting is necessary before urgent inpatient cardiac catheterizations. For patients presenting with urgent heart-related pain or even mild heart attacks, researchers want to know whether eating and drinking before their procedure improves comfort without raising the risk of complications. The study will answer: * Does eating and drinking before the procedure improve patient comfort? * Does it increase the risk of adverse events like vomiting, aspiration (food or liquid entering the lungs), breathing problems, or death, etc? Participants will be randomly assigned to either: * A standard fasting group (no food for 6 hours, no clear liquids for 2 hours), or * A no-fasting group (able to eat and drink as usual). Patients will complete brief surveys before the procedure to assess comfort and satisfaction. Researchers will also review medical records weekly and 30 days later to monitor for safety outcomes.
