  • Title: Nephrogenic fibrosing dermopathy: a case study.
    Author: Sego S.
    Journal: Nephrol Nurs J; 2008; 35(1):67-8. PubMed ID: 18372766.
    Abstract:
    While no information indicates that gadolinium contrast is a sole causative agent, nurses should assist patients on hemodialysis and those with moderate or end stage renal disease in making informed decisions regarding the clinical necessity for any imaging that requires the use of a gadolinium contrast. According to the FDA advisory, only those tests in which the outcome would outweigh the potential risk should be conducted (FDA, 2007a).
