It is the absolute standard work on the subject of contrast media injection, the Manual on Contrast Media.

"... 0.1-1.2% of CT injections result in extravasation. [...] Most extravasations resolve without complications ..."
"... Extravasation can also occur with hand injections. Extravasation can occur at both low and high flow rates ..."
Referring to this, we would like to add to the contrast medium injection with the Accutron® CT-D Vision: "The hand switch can be used to start the injection next to the patient and (with the other hand) to control the injection site. And further, "The integrated pre-inject function makes it possible to test the patency of the IV access before starting the contrast agent protocol."
Good to know: Within the framework of the findings of the Committee on Drugs an Contrast Media, the Accutron® CT-D Vision meets all of those guidelines.
