The drug is administered intravenously or intra-arterially, struino or drip.
General information
The drug is typed in a syringe or a bottle for drip introduction immediately before the procedure. The bottle with a contrast agent is intended exclusively for single use, the rubber stopper of the bottle is pierced only once, the rest of the contrast agent is destroyed.
The contrast agent is always heated to the body temperature before administration.
Premises in which procedures are performed using radiocontrast preparations should be provided with equipment and medicines that are needed in emergency situations (oxygen cylinders, antihistamines and vasoconstrictors, glucocorticosteroid preparations).
A warning
It is forbidden to mix radiopaque with other medications.
Preparation of patient
Before applying the contrast agent, you need to obtain accurate information about the patient, including important laboratory data (eg, serum creatinine level, ECG, history of allergy, pregnancy).
Before the study, the patient should eliminate the disturbance of the water electrolyte balance and ensure a sufficient supply of fluid and electrolytes.This is especially true for patients with diabetes, polyuria, oliguria or gout, as well as infants, and young children, elderly patients.
Two hours before the procedure, the patient should stop eating.
It is not recommended to perform preliminary testing of individual sensitivity with the use of small doses of the drug, due to the risk of severe hypersensitivity reactions.
When the drug is administered, the patient should be in a horizontal position.
Within 30 minutes after the end of the procedure, the patient is monitored physically, since most reactions occur precisely during this period.
To provide immediate assistance in case of acute adverse reactions, you should ensure constant access to the vessel (constant cannula). The funds required in these cases must be available.
Patients experiencing fear of waiting, need premedication calming means.
Recommended doses
The dosage of the drug depends on the age, weight, condition of hemodynamics and the general condition of the patient, as well as the area of the vessels that are examined.The administered dose is also affected by the technology of examination and the selected concentration of iodine in the preparation.
