简要总结
Ultravist is an iodine-based contrast agent that helps to make medical imaging scans clearer. It is also called iopromide, and it is available for doctors to give patients before they have scans. Even after a treatment or substance has been approved for use, researchers continue to study it to learn more about its safety.
Researchers have done studies on the safety of Ultravist, but they want to learn more about specific medical problems called hypersensitivity reactions (HSRs). These are undesirable immune system reactions to the study drug. In this study, the researchers will compare the risk of HSRs in children and in the elderly to the risk of HSRs in middle aged adults.
The researchers will look at information about medical problems that happened in people in 4 other studies. These studies are called PMS I, IMAGE, TRUST, and Ultravist in CT. A total of about 139,000 people will be included in this study.
All of the people in the earlier 4 studies received Ultravist as an injection into the vein or artery before having a scan. In this study, the researchers will compare the number of children, middle aged adults, and elderly patients who had HSRs after receiving Ultravist.

研究组 & 干预措施
PMS I study
'PMS I' was conducted in contrast-enhanced X-ray examination between June 1999 and November 2003 in 27 countries in Europe, Africa and Asia and comprised 74,717 patients of which 2,172 were children and 32,103 were elderly patients.

干预措施: Iopromide(Ultravist, BAY86-4877) (Drug)
IMAGE study
'IMAGE' consists of 44,835 patients with contrast-enhanced X-ray examination and was conducted in 21 European and Asian countries from February 2008 to September 2009, 1,451 patients were children, and 15,654 were elderly patients.

干预措施: Iopromide(Ultravist, BAY86-4877) (Drug)
TRUST study
'TRUST' assessed the safety and tolerability of Ultravist in patients undergoing cardiac catheterization. It was conducted from August 2010 to September 2011 in China and included 17,513 patients of which 12 were children and 8,918 were elderly patients.

Ultravist in CT study
'Ultravist in CT' was performed with focus on contrast-enhanced CT examination between November 2006 and December 2008 and included 15,168 patients in Germany, Iran, Romania and Saudi Arabia. A total of 417 patients were children, 7,453 were elderly patients.
