Pregnant patients can receive allergy premedication prior to a contrast-enhanced computed tomography exam if the exam is indicated. The risks and benefits of allergy premedication for pregnant patients will be discussed, as well as imaging strategies for the pregnant patient with a contrast allergy. ...
Intracervical injection of ICG is safe, and premedication using corticosteroids with or without diphenhydramine prior to SLN biopsy is a reasonable strategy in patients with iodinated contrast allergy.doi:10.1016/j.ygyno.2021.05.009William A. Zammarrelli III a...

PremedicationGlucocorticoidsThe objectives of this article are to review allergy-type reactions to iodinated contrast media and the protocols utilized to prevent or reduce the occurrence of these adverse reactions in high-risk patients. We will begin by discussing the types or classifications of the ...
Positive skin tests have been used to confirm allergy in patients with previous reactions to RCM and in patients with positive skin tests, negative results are useful in the selection of an alternative RCM to be use in the future.Severe hypersensitivity reactions appear to be more likely caused ...
Premedication protocol should be followed if possible. Unfortunately, no significant work has been performed so far in the setting of managing an ICM-sensitive patient with acute STEMI. Allergic angina (also known as Kounis syndrome) refers to an allergy-related acute cardiac syndrome, including ...
Objectives: Hypersensitivity reactions (HSRs) are uncommon but serious adverse events following the administration of iodinated contrast media (ICM) prior to CT imaging. While premedication is almost universally given in high-risk patients, there is a lack of evidence regarding the efficacy of such ...
