چکیده

UNLABELLED Contrast-induced encephalopathy (CIE) is a rare complication that presents with transient neurologic deficits and is caused by neurotoxicity of intravascular contrast media. The prognosis can be extremely favorable even in comatose patients. We reported a 76-year-old woman admitted for scheduled coronary angiography. The total amount of Optiray contrast media used was 150 mL. Immediately after the procedure, the patient developed consciousness disturbance, global aphasia, cortical blindness and right-sided weakness. CIE was diagnosed by computed tomography and subsequent magnetic resonance imaging. The patient recovered completely within 48 hours without any neurological deficits. KEY WORDS Angioplasty; Contrast-induced encephalopathy; Percutaneous coronary intervention.

Overconsumption of contrast media in percutaneous coronary intervention: Focusing on cost and acute kidney injury

Irrational use of medicines is a major problem worldwide. Since iodixanol (Visipaque®) was categorized in Category I (AV) based on the ABC-VED analysis in our hospital, we evaluated the amount of visipaque use and estimated the incremental cost based on the maximum contrast dose (MCD) following irrational use of contrast media. This retrospective study was conducted on 100 admitted patients age...
