Safety and Effectiveness of Volumetric Computed Tomography of the Heart in Combination with a PharmacologicaTest with Adenosine Triphosphate in the Diagnosis of Coronary Heart Disease

Aim      To evaluate safety and efficacy of sodium adenosine triphosphate (ATP) as a vasodilator in assessment of left ventricular (LV) myocardial perfusion and in verification of ischemia by cardiac volumetric computed tomography (CT).Material and methods  The study included 58 patients with suspected ischemic heart disease (IHD). For all included patients, cardiac volumetric CT with a pharmacological ATP test was performed. The rate of adverse effects was analyzed during the ATP infusion. Results of the study were compared with data from using other noninvasive methods for IHD diagnosis by calculating Cohen's kappa, the measure of agreement between two variables.Results The test performed during CT showed good tolerability of the ATP infusion, a low rate of moderate adverse reactions (8.6 %), and the absence of severe side effects. Results of diagnosing IHD with cardiac volumetric CT with the ATP pharmacological test were comparable with data from using other methods for noninvasive verification of LV myocardial ischemia (bicycle ergometry, treadmill test, stress echocardiography) in combination with coronarography or CT coronarography.Conclusion      ATP appears a safe pharmacological agent for diagnosing transient LV myocardial ischemia. ATP can be recommended as a vasodilator for evaluation of perfusion using cardiac volumetric CT.
