In this edition of CardioContrastWRAP, Steven V. Manoukian, MD, FACC, FSCAI, Director of Cardiovascular Research at the Sarah Cannon Research Institute, examines the role of ionic, low osmolar contrast media (LOCM ) for thrombosis reduction in the setting of percutaneous coronary intervention. Dr. Manoukian reviews landmark trials comparing contrast media, with an emphasis on the effects of MACE in the setting of PCI.
Strategies for reducing mortality and preventing adverse thrombotic and renal events in patients undergoing coronary angioplasty have recently focused not only on traditional antithrombotic strategies with antiplatelets and anticoagulants, but on selection of contrast media. Steven V. Manoukian, MD, FACC, leads an expert interventionalist panel in discussing strategies for improving outcomes in the setting of PCI through contrast media selection.
