ARRS Contrast Reaction Management: Conundrums and Pitfalls Online Course 2020
- ARRS Contrast Reaction Management: Conundrums and Pitfalls Online Course 2020 Given the uniform use of low osmolar and iso-osmolar contrast media agents, life-threatening contrast media-related reactions have become relatively infrequent. However, when an unpredictable reaction occurs unexpectedly, radiologists and CT support staff are frequently ill-prepared to manage—often making irreversible mistakes with potentially grave patient consequences and outcomes, including death. This Online Course will address common conundrums and pitfalls for radiologists managing unexpected contrast media reactions in the CT suite.
