Immediate reactions to iodinated contrast agents: Physiologic (toxic) versus hypersensitivity (allergy-like)

Immediate reactions to iodinated contrast agents: Physiologic (toxic) versus hypersensitivity (allergy-like)
  Physiologic Hypersensitivity
Type of reaction (and other terminology used) Physiologic (also called toxic, chemotoxic). Hypersensitivity (also called allergy-like, allergic-like).
Timing relative to administration

Within minutes to 1 hour by definition.

Often within seconds.
Within minutes to 1 hour by definition.
Signs and symptoms
  • Transient warmth or chills
  • Localized injection-site reactions (eg, erythema)
  • Pruritus only
  • Nausea or vomiting
  • Hypertension
  • Chest pain
  • Sneezing, rhinorrhea, conjunctival injection
  • Seizure
  • Vasovagal reaction (ie, hypotension and bradycardia)
  • Pulmonary edema
  • Arrhythmia
  • Urticaria or angioedema
  • Widespread erythema
  • Hoarseness or stridor, with or without hypoxia (ie, upper airway compromise)
  • Repetitive cough, wheezing, or chest tightness, with or without hypoxia (ie, lower airway compromise)
  • Anaphylactic shock (ie, hypotension and tachycardia)
Predictability
  • Infusion rate dependent
  • Most common with angiography
  • Infusion rate independent
  • Idiosyncratic and unpredictable
  • Reactions with initial exposures are usually idiosyncratic and unpredictable
  • IgE-mediated reactions more likely if patient had previous recent exposure to similar RCM
Possible pathophysiology Possibly related to direct chemotoxicity, osmotoxicity, or binding of agent to endogenous molecules.

Mechanism of mild reactions is unclear; direct mast cell activation has been proposed.

Some reactions in reexposed patients may be IgE mediated.
Severity Most are mild and self-limited. Most are mild and self-limited, but severe reactions can be fatal.
Risk factors High dose and osmolarity, angiography. Previous immediate hypersensitivity reaction.
Allergy testing indicated? No. Yes, especially for moderate-to-severe reactions. Premedication is usually effective for preventing recurrences of mild reactions.
IgE: immunoglobulin E; RCM: radiocontrast media.
