Risk factors and strategies to limit contrast media extravasation during computed tomography: A scoping review
Key Points
The aim is to identify risk factors and strategies to mitigate contrast media extravasation during computed tomography.
Scoping review of literature regarding extravasation incidents and risk assessment.
Analysis of strategies implemented in medical imaging to limit extravasation occurrences.
Integrating new risk factors identified leads to improved strategies.
Enhanced understanding among medical imaging professionals decreases extravasation severity.
Abstract
Integrating newly identified risk factors and strategies can help medical imaging professionals reduce the incidence and severity of CM extravasation and enhance patient outcomes.
