Question
Answer
show structure and function of urinary tract  
🗑
Structures visualized in IVU   show
🗑
Functions demonstrated in IVU   show
🗑
Reasons for IVU (9)   show
🗑
Pyelonephritis   show
🗑
show abnormal dialation of the pelvicalyceal system  
🗑
show Low residue diet to prevent gas formation. NPO after midnight. Laxatives. Pt should not be dehydrated (pt with certain diseases could go into renal failure)  
🗑
show Laxatives, suppositories, and dietary restrictions. Routine- 48 hours. Children and elderly- 24 hours. Diabetic- 18 hours  
🗑
show b/c colon is anterior to the urinary tract. no prep is usually needed for lower urinary tract  
🗑
Pre exam procedure for kids IVU   show
🗑
show Poor kidney function. Allergic to iodine  
🗑
show Elderly, asthma, elevated creatinine, sickle cell, DM, multiple myeloma, children, circulatory or cardiovascular disease  
🗑
show The type and amount depends on age weight and medical history  
🗑
Contrast media used for IVP's   show
🗑
show Contrast with iodine in concentrations of 30% or less bc it is less irritation on the bladder. Reaction to contrast for cystography isnt a concern cuz its introduced into bladder via catheter and doesnt flow through the blood system  
🗑
3 ways to administer contrast media   show
🗑
show Bolus and infusion  
🗑
Bolus injection   show
🗑
show Contrast is hung, elongates nephrogram or blush phase, allows nephrons to be visualized longer during filming.  
🗑
Minutes contrast shows up   show
🗑
show Previous reaction-3x as likley; Severe allergies-2x; Asthma-3x Age-50+; BP; heart disease; alcoholism; DM; CHF; certain meds; recent MI  
🗑
Reactions to contrast media happen within   show
🗑
Normal contrast media symptoms   show
🗑
show Require no meds for relief of symptoms. Nausea; Hives (uticaria); Itching; sneezing; vasovagal response; extravasation; pain; burning; numbness  
🗑
Vasovagal response   show
🗑
Extravasation   show
🗑
show Excessive/giant hives, tachycardia, excessive vomitting. requires treatment of symptoms and treatment to pt  
🗑
show Very low BP; cardiac/respiratory arrest; LOC; Convulsions; Laryngeal Edema; Cyanosis; Dyspneal Shock  
🗑
OVGH projections for IVU   show
🗑
AP Survey IVU   show
🗑
AP Tomo survey IVU   show
🗑
To choose depth for tomo slices   show
🗑
show No kidney is seen, too much of transverse process of spine is seen  
🗑
show No transverse processes are seen, unable to see vertebral body in cuboid space  
🗑
Nephrotomogram   show
🗑
Nephrogram   show
🗑
10 Min RPO LPO IVU   show
🗑
show Elevated kidney will be parallel with film. Dependant kidney will be perpendicular to film. Best visualizes ureter side down. Elevated ureter is seen but will be over spine  
🗑
show Same as AP Survey. The upper calyces fill with contrast better bc the upper poles of the kidneys are more then the inferior poles  
🗑
15 min AP Trendelberg IVU   show
🗑
show 14x17LW. CR Crest. Demo ureteropelvic region. If pt has hydronephrosis, obstructed ureter will fill better  
🗑
Ureteral compression   show
🗑
Contraindications for compression for IVU 6   show
🗑
show 14x17 LW; if dont erect, remember the kidneys normally drop 2" center slightly below crest  
🗑
show Residual urine in bladder, small tumors, enlargement of prostate, erect view demo mobility of kidneys and nephroptosis  
🗑
show Lateral, Dorsal Decub  
🗑
Lateral proj IVU   show
🗑
Lateral IVU demo   show
🗑
Dorsal decub IVU   show
🗑
Dorsal decub Demo IVU   show
🗑
Retrograde Urography   show
🗑
show Pt may have renal insufficiency (poor renal function)  
🗑
show Prelim film, pyelogram film, uretrogram film  
🗑
show shows catheter in place, can adjust positioning and technique  
🗑
show shows pelvicalyceal region of kidney, head of table may be lowered 10-15 degrees to keep contrast from escaping into ureters. Pt may feel pressure in their back when pelvis is full  
🗑
Ureterogram film   show
🗑
Cystogram   show
🗑
show Vesicoureteral reflux, recurrent lower UTIs, Neurogenic bladder, bladder trauma, Urethral stricture, posterior urehtral valves  
🗑
show Inability to catheterize  
🗑
show 10x12 LW, pt supine, legs extended.  
🗑
CR ap axial bladder   show
🗑
show Distal ureters will be visualized and will demo any ureteral reflux, prostate and proximal male urethra will be visiualized  
🗑
show 10x12Lw, CR->10-15 cephalic, entering 1" distal to tip of coccyx (exits little above superior border of the pubic symph) or 20-25 ceph, to demo prostate and project if above the pubic bones  
🗑
LPO/RPO Bladder proj   show
🗑
show 10x12 LW, rt or lt, cr-2" above pubic symph at MCP. Demo anterior and posterior bladder walls and base of bladder  
🗑
VCUG   show
🗑
show tumors, abscesses, diverticula, dialation, stricture, urinary incontience due to increased intraabdominal pressure such as coughing and and sneezing  
🗑
Urography   show
🗑
show Antegrade, retrograde  
🗑
Antegrade urography   show
🗑
methods of antergrade urography   show
🗑
Percutaneous method   show
🗑
show bladder, lower ureters and urethra. Cystography, cystoureterography, cystourethrography. All done retrograde. All catherization  
🗑
show radiographic technique that shows a single plane of tissue by blurring images of structure above and below the area of interest  
🗑
Zonography   show
🗑
show evaluates renal hypertensions, intestinal shadows will be removed  
🗑
show done to differentiate b/w cysts and tumors of the renal parenchyma. Direct injection into cyst under fluoro. US pretty much eliminated these exams  
🗑
