CT Technologist, Laura StClair, attention to detail!
While interviewing a patient prior to CT scan with contrast, Laura StClair discovered a new metformin containing medication, Syngardy, that was not on the list of metformin-containing medications that are checked prior to administering contrast. It was important that the patient discontinue this medication two days after receiving contrast to maintain kidney function. Thanks to Laura's attention to detail, the list has been updated with this medication and the patient was kept safe! Great work, Laura!!
