Allergic Like Reactions to Contrast Media and Premed Recs

Allergic like reactions to contrast media and premedication recommendations

A history of prior severe contrast reaction is a relative contraindication to receiving the same class of contrast medium in the future and therefore requires further risk-benefit discussion with the ordering provider and radiologist approval. If approved, this would also require the ordering provider or another ACLS-certified care provider to accompany the patient for the duration of their presence in the radiology department.
