ICG Indications for Use
AIM IC-GREEN is indicated for use with the Stryker L10 LED Light Source with
AIM Technology and SafeLight™ Fiber Optic Cable.
ICG Contraindications
AIM IC-GREEN contains sodium iodide. Use with caution in patients who have
a history of allergy to iodides or iodinated contrast agents.
Pharmacology
Following intravenous injection, ICG is rapidly bound to plasma proteins,
of which albumin is the principal carrier (95%). Simultaneous arterial and
venous blood estimations have shown negligible renal, peripheral, lung or
cerebrospinal uptake of the dye. ICG is taken up from the plasma almost
exclusively by the hepatic parenchymal cells and is secreted entirely into
the bile. ICG does not undergo signicant extrahepatic or enterohepatic
recirculation.
Warning
Anaphylactic deaths have been reported following ICG
administration during cardiac catheterization.
Adverse Reactions
Anaphylactic or urticarial reactions have been reported in patients with or
without history of iodide allergies. If an allergic reaction occurs, administer
treatment with the appropriate agents: for example, antihistamines,
corticosteroids, and epinephrine. Resuscitative measures may also be
required.
