  2. Why use IV Contrast • ____________ System • ___________ System • _______

  3. Terms to know • ____________ • To separate into ions; to dissociate atoms or molecules into electrically charged atoms • ____________ – The capability of being dissolved

  4. More Terms • ____________ – Movement of a solvent across a semipermiable membrane from a lower region to a higher region • ___________ – The number of dissolved ions in a solution.

  5. More Terms • ____________ –No change in cell volume. • ______________ – Increase in osmotic pressure. • ______________ • Decrease in osmotic pressure • ______________ • The ability of a fluid to flow easily

  6. Iodinated Contrast • ______________ • 2 types • Ionic and Non-ionic

  7. Ionic ContrastBasic Structure • 6 sided ring: • 3 ________ atoms • __________ element • __________ • Negative charged • Stabilize and detoxify • ___________ • Positive charge • Salt, increase solubility

  8. Ionic Contrast • Breaks apart into _____________ • Anion • Cation • __________– Ratio • _________particles • _________particles

  9. Ionic Continued • Increase ______________ • Increase ____________Pressure • Hypertonic • ___________ chance of a reaction

  10. Non-Ionic • Same basic structure • Replaces ____________with ____________elements.

  11. Non-Ionic Contrast • _____________break apart. • Decreased ____________ • __________ chance of a reaction • __________ – Ratio

  12. Prior to injecting • GET AN _________________________!!! • Thorough history needs to be obtained • Any allergies • ____________ sensitivity • Sickle Cell • Kidney problems (Stones don’t count) • ______________, hay fever • Prior reaction with X-ray contrast • Diabetic • On ___________
