Popis: Purpose and Methods: In 120 patients in a double-blind, randomized, parallel study, iodixanol (Visipaque), a nonionic dimer isotonic with blood, was compared with ioxaglate (Hexabrix), an ionic low-osmolar dimer, in coronary angiography regarding early and late adverse reactions. Haemodynamic and electrophysiologic parameters were also analyzed. Results: Visipaque resulted in significantly fewer early adverse contrast medium-related reactions (pConclusion: We found Visipaque safe for coronary angiography, causing fewer early adverse reactions than Hexabrix and also fewer effects on electrophysiologic parameters. Late adverse reactions seemed to be unusual with intra-arterial administration of contrast media.
