Sonazoid in Myocardial Perfusion Imaging

NCT05637333 · Status: WITHDRAWN · Type: OBSERVATIONAL

Last updated 2023-04-18

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Currently, Sonazoid is mainly used for imaging liver lesions by assessing perfusion characteristics. However, the ultrasound technology is the same as for cardiac imaging and the stability of the microbubbles will potentially aid the detection of myocardial perfusion defects. This study will look at the feasibility of using sonozoid in this way.

Interventions

DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

Contrast Stress Echocardiography

Dipyridamole will be infused at 0.56mg/kg of body weight over 4mins. After 2 minutes, if the patient has tolerated the infusion well, a further 0.28mg/kg will be infused over 2 minutes. Tolerance will be determined by the absence of 1) myocardial ischaemia (significant chest pain with ECG ST depression or T wave inversion or wall motion abnormality on ECHO) 2) a significant drop in blood pressure 3) significant arrhythmia and 4) intolerable symptoms. One minute after completion of Dipyridamole infusion Sonazoid will be infused at the same rate as was used during acquisition of the rest images. After 45 seconds when steady state is reached, the ultrasound images will be acquired as stated below in contrast imaging. If the Dipyridamole is not well tolerated by one minute after the 0.56mg/kg infusion, we will move straight to the infusion of Sonazoid with no extra 0.28mg/kg infusion.
