Post operative pulmonary edema and complications
... Pulmonary edema is a life-threatening complication immediately after extubation or in early post-operative period. Pulmonary complications are not as well studied as cardiac complications in the post-operative setting and they can be life-threating if not detected and treated early and promptly. ...

Effects of Contrast Media Selection upon Heart Rate and Heat
... The lower HR observed with Iodixanol may be due to the decreased perception of heat associated with iso-osmolar contrast agents. Although the discomfort caused by contrast-mediated heat sensation seems harmless, it may impact upon CCTA image quality by increasing HR and thus the likelihood of cardia ...
