OBJECTIVE To compare the dialyzability and safety of 2 types of low-osmolality contrast media administered to end-stage renal failure patients maintained on regular hemodialysis. METHODS Of 44 CT examinations, iohexol was used in 22 and ioxaglate in the other 22. Adverse reactions and hemodynamic changes were recorded. Thirty minutes after the beginning of CT investigation, hemodialysis was commenced. Elimination rate and clearance of the contrast media were measured as indices of their dialyzability. RESULTS After 4 hours of hemodialysis, 78.4+/-6.5% of iohexol and 72.4+/-6.0% ioxaglate were eliminated. Clearance of iohexol was higher than that of ioxaglate at all sampling times. No severe hemodynamic change nor adverse reaction were observed. Minor reactions were more frequently observed in the ioxaglate group. CONCLUSIONS Iohexol, a nonionic monomeric contrast medium, is more advantageous for hemodialysis patients than ioxaglate, an ionic dimeric contrast medium.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007472 Iohexol An effective non-ionic, water-soluble contrast agent which is used in myelography, arthrography, nephroangiography, arteriography, and other radiographic procedures. Its low systemic toxicity is the combined result of low chemotoxicity and low osmolality. Compound 545,Exypaque,Iohexol 350,Nycodenz,Omnipaque
D007485 Ioxaglic Acid A low-osmolar, ionic contrast medium used in various radiographic procedures.

D007676 Kidney Failure, Chronic The end-stage of CHRONIC RENAL INSUFFICIENCY. It is characterized by the severe irreversible kidney damage (as measured by the level of PROTEINURIA) and the reduction in GLOMERULAR FILTRATION RATE to less than 15 ml per min (Kidney Foundation: Kidney Disease Outcome Quality Initiative, 2002). These patients generally require HEMODIALYSIS or KIDNEY TRANSPLANTATION.
