These findings demonstrate that in patients with unstable ischemic syndromes undergoing coronary angioplasty, the use of ionic low osmolar contrast media reduces the risk of ischemic complications acutely and at 1 month after the procedure. Therefore, low osmolar ionic contrast media should be strongly considered when performing interventions in patients with unstable angina or myocardial infarction.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
