An adverse drug reaction (ADR) after intravascular contrast medium (CM) administration, either iodine-based contrast media (ICM) or gadolinium-based contrast agents (GBCA), is defined as a response to a CM which is noxious and unintended. This response implies that a causal relationship between the CM and an adverse event is at least a

Contrast agents (CA) are drugs used in diagnostic and therapeutic radiological procedures. Diverse types of CA are used to perform various radiological techniques. Although in some situations a same CA may be used across multiple techniques, they are generally associated with a specific type of imaging: iodine-based contrast media (ICM) for X-ray

Iodinated and gadolinium-based contrast media are used on a daily basis in most radiology practices. These agents often are essential to providing accurate diagnoses, and are nearly always safe and ef-fective when administered correctly. However, reactions to contrast media do occur and can be life threatening. Therefore, it is critical for faculty and staff to know how Download Citation | On Apr 1, 2024, Alpana Mohta published Allergic reactions to radiocontrast media–A brief overview | Find, read and cite all the research you need on ResearchGate

Two types of hypersensitivity reactions to RCM have been recognized: immediate and nonimmediate (delayed). 7 Immediate reactions can be caused by IgE and non-IgE mechanisms. Immediate, anaphylaxis-like reactions may be caused by an effect of the RCM on the mast cell membrane leading to mediator release or, possibly, by direct

Allergy: Patients who have had a prior allergic-like reaction or unknown-type reaction (i.e., a reaction of unknown manifestation) to contrast medium have an approximately 5-fold increased risk of developing a future allergic-like reaction if exposed to the same class of The conclusions of a recent special article published in the Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology: In Practice on the controversies in allergy to radiographic contrast media were that controlled prospective multicentric studies with large numbers of patients are lacking for every step of the assessment and management of patients reacting to ICM. 3 So,

Abstract Radiocontrast media (RCM) are medical drugs used to improve the visibility of internal organs and structures in X-ray based imaging techniques. They may have side effects ranging from itching to a life-threatening emergency, known as contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN). We define CIN as acute renal failure occurring within 24–72 hrs of exposure to RCM that cannot be The allergy evaluation of immediate reactions is discussed in this topic review. The clinical manifestations, epidemiology, diagnosis, and treatment of immediate contrast reactions are discussed separately. (See „Diagnosis and treatment of an acute reaction to a radiologic contrast agent“.) This document discusses contrast reactions and their management. It begins by stating that contrast reactions can range from minor to life-threatening. Proper preparation is needed to treat all potential adverse events. Risk factors for reactions include previous reactions, renal insufficiency, and medications. Reactions are classified as idiosyncratic or non-idiosyncratic.

Nonionic contrast agents are low-osmolar (but still hyperosmolar relative to blood) or iso-osmolar (with the same osmolarity as blood). Newer nonionic contrast agents are now routinely used at nearly all institutions because they have fewer adverse effects. The most serious contrast reactions are Allergic-type reactions

KEY TAKEAWAYS Documentation of iodinated contrast media (ICM) hypersensitivity reactions, including symptoms and the specific inciting agent in the electronic medical record, is recommended to optimize future ICM reaction management.

Intravenous iodinated contrast media (ICM) is widely used in the United States, and it is imperative to provide guidance on the management of adverse reactions to ICM as well as the preparation, planning, and potential premedication for patients with previous reactions. Currently there is a discordance between the American College of Radiology Contrast Manual, which

Since their introduction in the 1950s, organic radiographic iodinated contrast media (ICM) have been among the most commonly prescribed drugs in the history of modern medicine. The phenomenon of present-day radiologic Radiological contrast media, both iodinated and gadolinium-based, can lead to adverse reactions. Type A reactions are related to the pharmacological characteristics of the contrast, including side, secondary and toxic effects. Post-contrast acute kidney injury is the most frequent adverse reaction to iodinated contrast media. Less frequently, thyroid, neurological, Contrast media, including iodinated contrast media and gadolinium-based contrast agents, are commonly administered pharmaceuticals with excellent safety profiles. However, a minority of the population may experience a hypersensitivity reaction following intravenous administration. Hypersensitivity r

Iodinated contrast media (ICM) have become one of the major causes of drug hypersensitivity reactions (HSRs) related to increasing numbers of ICM-based radiological imaging procedures.

Current recommendations and guidelines for administration of radiologic contrast media are reviewed, as well as management of adverse reactions.

The document discusses the safety issues related to radiographic contrast media, detailing their classification into positive and negative agents, and the risk factors associated with iodinated and gadolinium-based contrast media. It highlights acute idiosyncratic reactions, prevention strategies, and the importance of using low osmolality nonionic agents to reduce the incidence of adverse

Types of hypersensitivity reactions to iodinated RCM Hypersensitivity reactions to iodinated RCM can be immediate (within hours) or delayed (days later), with severity ranging from potentially life-threatening anaphylaxis through to delayed rashes. These reactions are rarely IgE-mediated, and allergy testing is therefore of limited use for diagnosis. Hypersensitivity reactions are classified There are two basic types of contrast media that are used for most radiologic studies: ionic high-osmolality contrast media and nonionic low-osmolality contrast media. The latter has become the preferred form of IV dye in recent years, given its better safety record, especially for women who are breastfeeding. However, it is far more expensive than high

Since their introduction in the 1950s, organic radiographic iodinated contrast media (ICM) have been among the most commonly Increasing evidence indicates that immediate reactions and nonimmediate skin exanthemas may be allergic reactions involving either contrast media–reactive IgE or T cells, respectively. Skin testing is a useful tool for the diagnosis of contrast media allergy.

Objective To investigate the prevalence, patterns and influence factors for iodinated contrast media (ICM)-related adverse reaction (AR) in patients with a history of allergies. The use of iodinated contrast media is associated with a risk of adverse reactions, including serious allergic type reactions which may be life threatening.
