  • Title: [Reduction of side effects in aortofemoral angiography: low-osmolar contrast medium compared with conventional contrast medium plus local anaesthetic (author's transl)].
    Author: Straub H, Wiebe V.
    Journal: Rontgenblatter; 1981 Apr; 34(4):139-42. PubMed ID: 7233004.
    Abstract:
    Ioglicinate plus lidocaine and ioxaglate were used for aortofemoral angiography in 15 patients. Side effects of the two contrast media were compared in a double blind study. Injection of ioxaglate caused significantly less vascular pain. With both contrast agents sensation of heat and increase of heart rate were equal. Unlike ioglicinate plus lidocaine ioxaglate did not induce a significant drop of blood pressure. Angiography using low osmolar contrast media causes less side effects than conventional medium plus local anesthetic.
