Allergic Immediate Hypersensitivity to Iodinated Contrast Media
Background: Immediate hypersensitivity reactions (IHR) to iodinated contrast media (ICM) have traditionally been considered nonallergic; however, the increasingly frequent reporting of positive skin test and basophil activation test results suggests a specifi c allergic mechanism in some patients. Skin tests have been proposed as a useful tool for diagnosis, although their sensitivity and predi...
متن کاملIncidence of immediate gadolinium contrast media reactions.
OBJECTIVE Our objective was to determine the incidence of immediate adverse events for gadolinium-based contrast agents. MATERIALS AND METHODS All gadolinium-based contrast agent adverse events reported to radiology quality assurance committees were graded according to American College of Radiology criteria and divided by the total number of injections to determine incidence during the past 1...
متن کاملImmediate and non-immediate allergic reactions to amoxicillin present a diagnostic dilemma: a case series.
BACKGROUND Allergic reactions to amoxicillin are very common occurrences in the pediatric age group; however, onset of symptoms can present a diagnostic dilemma. CASE PRESENTATION We present a case series that describes three children (8-year-old white girl, 2-year-old white boy and 14-month-old Chinese boy) who presented with varied onset of allergic reactions to amoxicillin, specifically im...
متن کاملEvaluation of immediate allergic reactions to cephalosporins in non-penicillin-allergic patients.
BACKGROUND Cephalosporins can induce severe or life-threatening IgE-mediated reactions in some individuals. In this study, we wish to describe a group of non-penicillin-allergic patients who were evaluated for immediate allergic reactions to cephalosporins. METHODS The patients were assessed by skin tests with the culprit cephalosporin as well as with other cephalosporins and penicillins. If ...
متن کاملImmediate Adverse Reactions to Gadolinium-Based MR Contrast Media: A Retrospective Analysis on 10,608 Examinations
Background and Purpose. Contrast media (CM) for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) may determine the development of acute adverse reactions. Objective was to retrospectively assess the frequency and severity of adverse reactions associated with gadolinium-based contrast agents (GBCAs) injection in patients who underwent MRI. Material and Methods. At our center 10608 MRI examinations with CM were ...
