dc.description.abstractIn 2013, The ICPS Contrast Media Usage and Exposure Workgroup was formed to review, define, assess and implement best practices regarding the use of intravascular iodinated contrast media (CM) in diagnostic and interventional procedures with respect to the associated risk of contrast media - induced nephropathy (CIN) and other adverse events. The interdisciplinary workgroup consisted of radiologists, cardiologists, nephrologists, nurses, technologists, pharmacists and patient safety experts. The workgroup met regularly to review published best practices and current practices within each member health-system. The workgroup focused on opportunities to improve patient safety within rep resent health-systems and emphasized consensus-based recommendations aimed at reducing intra-institutional variability. Based on current literature, best practices, and professional experience, the workgroup created these recommendations for safe use of intravenous iodinated contrast media. These recommendations do not replace sound clinical judgment or other published guidelines.en_US
