Coronary dilation with standard dose dipyridamole and dipyridamole combined with handgrip.
Intravenous dipyridamole is widely used to produce coronary vasodilation during cardiac imaging procedures. However, the routinely used dose of dipyridamole (0.56 mg/kg IV over 4 min) does not always result in maximal coronary dilation. The addition of isometric handgrip during dipyridamole coronary dilation has been reported to substantially increase coronary blood flow over dipyridamole alone...
متن کاملUsefulness of high-dose dipyridamole echocardiography test in coronary angioplasty.
Seventy-four consecutive patients with angina undergoing single-lesion percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty were evaluated with high-dose (up to 0.84 mg/kg during 10 minutes) dipyridamole echocardiography test (DET) before angioplasty and when possible, afterward. Angioplasty was clinically or angiographically successful in 63 patients and unsuccessful in 11. Before the procedure, 69 ...
متن کاملOcclusion by Low-Dose Aspirin and Dipyridamole
surgery, and assigned treatment was started 7 hours after surgery. Vein graft angiography was performed in 927 patients (83%) within 28 days of surgery (mean, 10 days). Aspirin plus dipyridamole significantly (p=0.017) reduced the occlusion rate of distal anastomoses from 18% (placebo) to 12.9%. Occlusion rate in the aspirin group was 14%, which approached statistical significance (p=0.058). Fu...
متن کاملDipyridamole combined with exercise for thallium-201 myocardial imaging.
A new stress test for thallium-201 myocardial imaging in which pharmacological coronary vasodilatation with dipyridamole is combined with dynamic exercise is described. In 38 patients with coronary artery disease the sensitivity, total number of defects, degree of redistribution, and visual quality of thallium-201 imaging were greater after dipyridamole with exercise testing than after exercise...
متن کاملInduction of coronary spasm after dipyridamole administration.
The stress test, whether performed conventionally or with imaging techniques, is the most widely used method in clinical practice to demonstrate myocardial ischemia in patients with chest pain. A pharmacological stress test is usually indicated in patients who cannot do physical exercise. Although several drugs are currently available to induce ischemia, for many years dipyridamole has been the...
