Randomized Controlled Trial
Attenuation of the side effect profile of regadenoson: a randomized double-blinded placebo-controlled study with aminophylline in patients undergoing myocardial perfusion imaging. "The ASSUAGE trial".
It is unknown whether the standardized intravenous aminophylline administration following regadenoson-stress can prevent the gastrointestinal and other adverse effects associated with regadenoson. ⋯ This trial supports the routine administration of IV-aminophylline to reduce the frequency and severity of adverse effects associated with regadenoson-stress.
