Contrast Media

Intro

QuestionAnswer
Osmality is a measure of the total number of particles in soloution
Oil-based iodine contrast mediea are made from fatty acids
Contrast media are: diagnostic agents
Elements with a high atomic number absorb x-ray fater than elements with low atomic number
Radiolucent x-ray are positve agents
Radopague contrast media are positive contrast contrast agents , appear light on radiographs , and are composed of elements with a high atomic number
Radolucent Contrast media appear dark on radiographs
Example of positive contrast media barrium and iodine
An allergic reaction ranges form mild to severe, A reatction after an injection of contrast media with hypotension and braycardia would be which of the following mild, and severe
Extravagation leakage on contrast media outside the vessel int the surrounding soft tissue
Immediate treatment for contrast extravagation stop the infussion
In the even of contrast extravigation if the amount of contrast media extavasated is greater than_____ mls a plastic surgeon must be notified 30
5 patient rights of drug Administration Right Amount Right patient right route right drug right time
Medication to treat adverse reaction form contrast media Benedryl and Epinephorine
Routes of administration for contrast medeia IV , Enema (rectal) , orally
Normal creatine level 1.0
Recommended time before resuming glucophage folling an iodine contrast media procedure 48
Examples of negative contrast media air , soda water, gas-producing crystals
Air enbolus can for as a complication negative contrast medial administration
Barrium sulfate is soluable in Water
Tendancy for barrium sulfate to clup and come out of suspension is flocculation
Barium sulfate coats gastrointestinal lining
Barium sulfate is conraindicated if patien is suspectd of having a gastrointestinal tract perforation
Barium can dry in stomach and cause obstruction
Oil based iodine contrast media are used currently for darcyocystography, bronchography, lyphography
ioni contrast media dissociate into two molecular particle in blood plasma
Opacifying elemen in benzoic acid ring Three atoms of iodine
High Osmality of contrast is related to adverse reactions
Most iomic, iodinated conrast media are monomers
Nonionic contrast media are associated with low-osmality
Myelogam is most commonly used with non-ionic contrast media
Injection of ionic contrast media may lead to arterial expansion
which contrast media is used for Upper GI Barrium
Negative and positive contrast media are used together in certain exams
Main disadvantage to using oil-based contrast insoluable Body cant break down
With nursing mothers the recommeded time to wait after gadolinium-based contrast injection to resume nursing 24 hours
Condition of increased risk for contrast Multiple myeloma, sickel cell anemia, anuria , diabetes (esp. diabetes mellitis
two closest crash carts in DC if life threatning reaction were to occur IR and CT
Where is the crash cart in Main Radiology room 4
Positive contrast agents increase attenuation of x-ray beam and produce areas of decrease density on image
Negative contrast agents decrease attenuation of x-ray beam and produce increase in densit on image
Radolucent is a ______ contrast agent negative
Rodiopaque is a _____ contrast agent positive
Barium sulfate and air are used together to visualize lumen of the colon
Barium has an atomic number of 56 and is radiopaque
Hypervolemia serious, sometimes fatal condition that can result , when increase water absortion by the colon in results of excess fluid entering the circulatory system to reduce risk 2 teaspoons of table salt with liter of water in enema prep
Exravagation Leakage through a duct or vessel into abdominal cavity
Iodine has an atomic number of 53 opaque, positively charged
cation salt consisting of sodium or meglumine. increase solubility of contrast media,
the cantion combines negatively charged components called anion
The cantion and anion are side chains that attach to the parent benzoic acid ring
Viscosity friction
Ioxaglate ionic molecule composed of two conneted benzene hexagons
Iodixanol made to be isomola
