Iopamidol
Iopamidol (INN, tradenames Iopamiro, Isovue, Iopamiron, and Niopam) is a nonionic, low-osmolar iodinated contrast agent, developed by Bracco.
It is available in various concentrations, from 200 to 370 mgI/mL.
Clinical uses
Iopamidol is primarily used in the following:[1]
- Angiography throughout the cardiovascular system, including cerebral and peripheral arteriography, coronary arteriography and ventriculography, pediatric angiocardiography, selective visceral arteriography and aortography, peripheral venography (phlebography)
- Adult and pediatric intravenous excretory urography and intravenous adult and pediatric contrast enhancement of computed tomographic (CECT) head and body imaging
Nursing Considerations: Contrast is nephrotoxic, assess continually renal function. Make sure fluids are encouraged post operation to help the body rid the contrast from the kidneys. Assess patient for allergies to Iodine or Shellfish as the contrast is composed largely of Iodine.
