Abstract:
It has been known tht alterations in blood pressure, heart rate and other systemic reactions can occure artereitroduction of contrast media into the vascular system. And the factors of these alterations are the suddenchanges of the circulating blood volume, hypertonicity of the injected contrast media and adverse reactions to thecontast media. This pospective study included evaluation so f the hemodynamic changes, adverse reactions and itsrelationship with ensitivity tesst and allergic history in 105 patients who had been performed angiocardiographyduring period of 1 year from oct. 1981 to Sept. 1982. The results were as follows; 1. 14 out of 105 patient showedminor reactions to contrast media such as nausea, vomiting, coughing, etc. There is no close relationship betweenadverse reaction and sensitivity test or previous allergic history. 2. In the group of right sidedangiocardiography, 47.6% of patient showed elevation of blood pressure after injection of contrast media. 38.1% ofpatient, however, showed lowered blood presssure. The changes of the pulse rate were quite similar to those ofblood pressure; increased in 47.7% and decreased in 40.9% of patient. 3. In the group of left sidedangiocardiography, 61.6% of patient showed eleveation of blood pressure immediately after injection of contrastmedia, and 17.5% of patient showed lowered blood pressure. 5 minutes after injection of contrast media, largegroup of patient showed normalized blood pressure, The pullse rate was also increased in the 66.3% of patient.
