[Changes in plasma ionized calcium levels during fluorescein angiography]. 1985

F Turetta, and R de Stefani, and A Milanesi, and A Cannizzaro, and A M Padoan, and P de Giorgio

The authors have demonstrated a significant decrease of the plasmatic ionized calcium level in 84 patients during retinal fluorangiography likely due to a chemical bond between calcium and fluorescein. The side effects noticed during the procedure were similar to that quoted in the literature; their frequency, however, was not correlated with the decrease of the plasmatic ionized calcium level, even though the magnitude of the decrease was twice as great in the patients who experienced some trouble as in those who did not. This lack of correlation may be related to the too small patients sample. A greater frequency of side effects has been noticed in patients treated by calcium inhibitors.

D002118 Calcium A basic element found in nearly all tissues. It is a member of the alkaline earth family of metals with the atomic symbol Ca, atomic number 20, and atomic weight 40. Calcium is the most abundant mineral in the body and combines with phosphorus to form calcium phosphate in the bones and teeth. It is essential for the normal functioning of nerves and muscles and plays a role in blood coagulation (as factor IV) and in many enzymatic processes.
