Abstract
The cardiovascular response produced during pulmonary angiography performed with the standard ionic agent diatrizoate (Renografin 76) and a new non-ionic agent iopamidol was compared in 9 dogs ventilated on room air and on 10% O2 which significantly elevated pulmonary arterial pressure. Iopamidol produced similar changes in mean aortic and pulmonary arterial pressures compared with normal saline (< 20% change). Renograffin 76 produced a significantly greater elevation in mean pulmonary arterial pressure (a 41% increase) in depression in mean aortic pressure (a 40% reduction) than either saline or iopamidol (P < 0.01). These results were similar for dogs being ventilated with room air and O2. Iopamidol should be better tolerated and therefore a safer contrast agent for pulmonary angiography than diatrizoate.This publication has 23 references indexed in Scilit:
