This data shows times of 491 minutes for November and 602 minutes for December. There were 1789 admissions in November with 7885 registered for treatment, and there were 1905 admissions in December with 8008 registered for treatment. There were 1944 ambulance runs received in November and 2120 in December. This is about more than an average month prior. The hospital has been at 100% capacity most days creating a need to hold as many as admissions in the ED at most times of the day. Because the hospital has been at capacity, the ED admissions have had extended wait times before beds are open and then assigned. The ED plans to continue to work on performing efficient workups and timely dispositions. They will work with Case Management to accurately request the appropriate beds for patients. Nursing staff will continue to push for efficient and timely report and transport of ED patients to the floors after beds are assigned. The ED Director and Medical Director will push for early discharges on the floors and the use of the discharge lounge to open beds up sooner in the day. Most of the discharges are occurring after 2p on the inpatient units which has added to the total LOS for admitted patients in the ED. 1

The principle is to minimize the contamination of unrestricted areas at a level as low as reasonably achievable below established limits. ALARA requires careful design and choice of equipment as well as good radiation protection practices including good planning and the proper use of appropriate equipment by qualified, welltrained personnel. The primary mechanism for minimizing radiation exposure is an alert and knowledgeable worker. Adequate protection shall be available to provide a safe working environment for a radiation worker and general public. Such protections may include the use of shielding, exhaust hoods, glove boxes, spill pans, remote manipulators, protective apparels such as gloves, aprons etc. Secondary protective measures such as procedural controls and monitoring systems may be employed. Time, distance and shielding are three cardinal factors controlling the ALARA (As Low As Reasonably Achievable) concept:

57 Radiation Protection Program 4 Minimize time of contact with radiation, increase distance to radiation source and have shielding available in radiation environments. The RSO will make sure that procedures in a radiation environment are conducted as stipulated in RML. Along with physicist, RSO will investigate overexposure, accidents, spills, losses and thefts. Incidents, such as misadministration, must have to be investigated and policies be put in place to eliminate such incidents. ALARA investigational levels are as follows: SITE Whole Body (DDE; tissue depth 1cm) Eye Lens (LDE; depth = 0.3 cm) Skin (SDE; depth = cm averaged over area 1 cm2) ALARA1 Quarterly Limit (mrem) ALARA2 Quarterly Limit (mrem) Maximum Annual Permissible Dose MPD(mRem) Formatted: Font: (Default) Arial Formatted Table Formatted: Font: (Default) Arial Formatted: Font: (Default) Arial, 12 pt 3. Dosimetry Program The KDHCD shall control the occupational dose to individual adults for the following dose limits. Proper use and storage of dosimetry devices will be defined by the facility Radiation Safety Committee. The total effective dose equivalent being equal to 5 rems (0.05 Sv). The annual limits to the lens of the eye, to the skin of the whole body, and to the skin of the extremities, are: A lens dose equivalent of 15 rems (0.15 Sv), and A shallow-dose equivalent of 50 rem (0.5 Sv) to the skin of the whole body or to the skin of any extremity. A. Family, guests or children a. Family or guests of patients, will not be permitted in any xray room unless absolutely necessary to help hold patient.

58 Radiation Protection Program 5 All individuals who, on a regular basis, handle radioactive material that emits ionizing radiation will be issued a film and TLD finger monitor that will be processed by a contracted service (Landauer) on a monthly basis. These individuals are likely to receive radiation exposure in excess of 10% of the maximum permissible dose. All personnel who work with radioactive materials will be issued a whole-body badge as well as ring badge. Exposure readings on these badges will be reviewed quarterly by the RSC using ALARA levels. All individuals who are exposed to radiation on an occasional basis, such as Surgery Physicians and Personnel, will be issued a whole body monitor to be worn anytime radiation is used in the operating room. Other individuals who are exposed to radiation on an occasional basis, such as delivery personnel and nurses who have received diagnostic dosages will not normally be issued exposure monitors. Formatted: Tab stops: 0", Left + Not at 2.2" The ALARA program requires that each individual have their own exposure badge before working in an area of radiation exposure or be assigned a visitor badge until their regular badge has been delivered. All badges are to be ordered by the Department manager or his assistant as soon as new personnel have been hired. In addition, a control badge accompanies the monthly group of badges and should not be placed inside a badge holder. This control badge is kept in a secure place together with any other badges that are no longer active. Proper wearing of the personnel radiation badge indicates it should be worn closest to the source of radiation. Film badges will be interpreted monthly by the contracted service, and a report returned to the Department manager. This report is then posted in the Department readily accessible to all employees. If there is a case of overexposure the personnel involved is notified immediately along with the RSO and the Physicist. The RSO will investigate all unusually high exposures as well as maintain a permanent employeeexposure record, as required by ALARA program. Protective lead aprons must be worn by all personnel within an x-ray room during fluoroscopy and radiography. In addition, personnel required to place their hands within the direct radiation beam will wear protective lead gloves. The use of radiation safety thyroid shields will be at the discretion of each individual. Personnel not regularly exposed to radiation, for example, portable exams on units, Emergency Department, or use in surgery who do not have a film badge lead apron should be asked to leave the area during radiographic or fluoroscopic procedures. The Technologist will announce when an exposure is to be made. A distance of 15 to 20 feet will ordinarily result in minimal exposure. If one of the above personnel are required to stay in the vicinity of a radiation producing unit always wear a lead apron. If the Technologists do not have enough lead aprons with them, they are to be asked to retrieve one for each person involved. C. Pregnant Workers Declaration of pregnancy is governed by specific policy. Pregnant personnel are advised to notify their supervisors as soon as possible of their condition. Upon declaration of pregnancy, the radiation worker is issued a fetal badge that is worn at Formatted: Numbered + Level: 1 + Numbering Style: A, B, C, + Start at: 1 + Alignment: Left + Aligned at: 0" + Indent at: 0.25", Tab stops: 0.25", Left + Not at 2.13"

Every effort will be made to keep radiation exposure level to the fetus below 500 mr during the entire gestation period or 50 mr in any given month during gestation period. Where possible, the pregnant radiation worker will be re-assigned responsibilities away from sources of radiation if RSO deems it necessary to keep fetal dose at ALARA level. Radiation safety counselcouncil may be sought with the RSO if pregnant radiation worker so desires. PREGNANCY DECLARATION FORM This form letter is provided for your convenience.

62 Radiation Protection Program 9 4. Pregnant Patients A pregnant patient can receive radiotherapy depending upon the following factors: 1. The stage and aggressiveness of the tumor; 2. The location of the tumor; 3. Potential hormonal effects of pregnancy of the tumor; 4. Various therapies and their length, efficacy, and complications; 5. Impact of delaying therapy; 6. Expected effects of maternal ill-health on the fetus; 7. The stage of pregnancy; 8. Fetal assessment and monitoring; 9. How and when the baby could be safely delivered; 10. Whether the pregnancy should be terminated; 11. Legal, ethical, and moral issues. The fetal dose may be reduced if the following factors are kept in mind: The first consideration is if the treatment can be postponed until the fetus is at a later gestation age. If the decision is made that radiotherapy is necessary, it is important to calculate the dose to the fetus before the treatment is given. When external radiotherapy is used for treatment of tumors at some distance from the fetus, a very important factor in fetal dose is the distance from the edge of the radiation field. The American Association of Physicists in Medicine (AAPM) recommends that the following points be considered: 1. Complete all planning as though the patient were not pregnant. If the fetus is near the treatment beam, do not take portal localization films with open collimation and blocks removed. 2. Consider modifications to the treatment plan that would reduce the radiation dose to the fetus (e.g. changing field size, radiation energy). If possible use photon energies of less than 25 MV. 3. Estimate dose to the fetus using phantom measurements, a shield may be constructed with 4-5 half-value layers of lead. 4. Document the treatment plan and discuss it with the staff involved in patient set-up. Document the shielding (perhaps with a photograph). 5. Monitor the fetal size and growth throughout the course of treatment and reassess fetal dose if necessary. 6. On completion of treatment, document the total dose including the range of dose to the fetus during therapy. 7. Consider referring the patient to another institution if equipment and personnel are not available for reducing and estimating the fetal dose. 5. Area Monitoring and Control / Instrument Calibration and Maintenance A. Area Radiation Monitoring Radiation area monitoring is important to make sure exposure levels are within acceptable limit.

The RSO will conduct a physical inventory every six months to account for all the sealed sources. Records of the inventories will be maintained for inspection. Any radioactive material with a physical half lifehalf-life of less than 65 days will be kept for decay in storage before disposal in ordinary trash provided (1) the radioactive waste to be disposed of in this manner shall be held in storage for at least half-lives livesand (2). bbefore disposal, radioactive waste will be surveyed to determine that the exposure shall not exceed the background level. C. Room Requirements All internal walls of rooms containing stationary radiation producing devices, such as stationary x-ray equipment will contain sufficient lead or lead composite material to prevent scattered radiation from leaving the area and thereby exposing other people in adjacent areas. All fixed radiation devices will have short exposure cables and switches preventing the operator from leaving the shielded area. A protective barrier is utilized to shield the control area for all fixed units. Operators must stand behind the protective barrier. Any x-ray unit malfunction (collimator malfunction, door interlock not working properly, etc.) should be reported immediately to the Administrative Director of Radiology or Supervisor. If the malfunction involves accidental/unwarranted exposure to a worker or patient the Radiation Safety Officer or Physicist will immediately be notified. After hours you will notify the Administrative Director or the Supervisor who will report the incident to the Radiation Safety Officer. There will be uniform and accepted radiation warning signs conforming to the prescribed format, posted throughout exposure areas. All doors of rooms containing radiation devices will be closed during radiological examinations. A viewing window should be used to observe the patient at all times. R Radiation devices will be equipped with collimation accessories which restrict the x-ray beam only to the part examined. Field size indicators should be referenced to determine collimation settings at various SID's. Calibration of diagnostic radiology equipment will be performed semi-annually by either the Biomedical Engineering department or a contracted service and confirmed at least annually by the Physicist according to state and/or federal regulations. A written calibration record will be kept. A radiation protection survey including calibration is also performed when radiologic equipment is initially installed, altered significantly, or relocated. Any x-ray unit malfunction (collimator malfunction, door interlock not working properly, etc.) should be reported immediately to the Administrative Director of Formatted: Bulleted + Level: 1 + Aligned at: 0.25" + Indent at: 0.5", Tab stops: 0.5", Left + Not at 2.13" Formatted: Bulleted + Level: 1 + Aligned at: 0.25" + Indent at: 0.5", Tab stops: 0.5", Left + 2.2", Left Formatted: Bulleted + Level: 1 + Aligned at: 0.25" + Indent at: 0.5", Tab stops: 0", Left + 0.5", Left + Not at 2.13" Formatted: Tab stops: 0.5", Left + 2.2", Left + Not at 2.13" Formatted: Tab stops: 0.5", Left + Not at 2.13" Formatted: Bulleted + Level: 1 + Aligned at: 0.25" + Indent at: 0.5", Tab stops: 0.5", Left + Not at 2.13" Formatted: Tab stops: 0.5", Left + Not at 2.13" Formatted: Tab stops: 0.5", Left + 2.2", Left

Lead Shielding Devices All leaded gloves, aprons and other shielding devices used will be checked at least annually for signs of cracks, tears, or other damage which might result in radiation leakage. Such inspections will be documented by a Physicist report. The apron should first be visually examined for any obvious defects such as torn straps, ripped covering, and tears or holes in the lead equivalent material. If there are any such defects, the aprons are to be removed from service and repaired or replaced as necessary. Aprons that are visually satisfactory should be examined under fluoroscopy to determine existence of any defects that would unknowingly increase exposure to ionizing radiation. Such inspections will be documented by a Physicist report Any aprons that are determined to be unsatisfactory shall be removed from service. Radiographic film, intensifying screens, and other image recording devices should be as sensitive as is consistent with the requirement of the film manufacturer, the equipment manufacturer and the examination. Film processing materials and techniques should be those recommended or determined acceptable by the film manufacturer to insure maximum information content of the developed radiographs and, where practical, quality control methods should be employed to insure optimum results according to manufacturer s recommendations. E. Image Recording Devices F. Fluoroscopy Proper use and storage of dosimetry devices will be defined by the facility Radiation Safety Committee. Fluoroscopy will not be used as a substitute for radiography, but will be reserved for the study of dynamics or spatial relationships or for guidance in spot-film recording of critical details or for interventional radiology procedures. Guidelines for the fluoroscopist: The exposure rate in fluoroscopy should be as low as is consistent with the fluoroscopic requirements and shall not exceed 10 R/min measured at the position where the beam enters the patient. The smallest practical field sizes and shortest exposure times should be employed. The possibilities of reducing dose by techniques utilizing high tube potential and low current should be considered. Fluoroscopy should be performed only by or under the immediate supervision of physicians properly trained in fluoroscopic procedures. Extraneous light which interferes with the fluoroscopic examination should be eliminated. Special precautions, consistent with clinical needs, should be taken to minimize exposure of the gonads of potentially procreative patients and exposure of the embryo or fetus in patients known or suspected to be pregnant.

66 Radiation Protection Program 13 each person (except the patient). The hand of the fluoroscopist should not be placed in the useful beam unless the beam is attenuated by the patient and a protective glove of at least 2.5 mm lead equivalent is worn. Only persons whose presence is needed should be in the fluoroscopy room during the procedure. Patients: All radiographic examinations will be performed only when they conform to accepted clinical indications, or in cases requiring clarification the Radiologist and/or the ordering Physician will be questioned. Diagnostic examinations will be performed with such technical factors as to minimize exposure to diagnostic radiation and still satisfy the need for the desired information. All female patients of child bearing age will be questioned regarding the possibility of pregnancy prior to any exam. Gonad shields are to be provided for all children, young adults and females of child bearing age within the limitations of the examination desired. These general Radiation Safety Guidelines will be applicable throughout the medical facility. Any modifications requested must be referred to the Radiation Safety Officer, the Medical Director of Radiology or the Administrative Director of Radiology. Be sure you understand the studies requested. This will avoid retakes and unnecessary exposure to you and your patient. Advise unit personnel and requesting physicians when an x-ray request is a suspected duplicate to avoid necessary exposure. Advise the Director, Supervisor or the Radiologist of any requests that may seem excessive.

67 Radiation Protection Program 14 to inform workers of the area s radiological conditions, and to inform workers of the entry requirements for the area. In order to maintain exposure to radiation ALARA, access to areas or devices in which one can receive more than 100 mrem per year is restricted. Areas controlled for radiological purposes must be posted with a black or magenta standard three-bladed radiological warning symbol. Postings and barriers must be clearly visible from all accessible directions. Postings on doors should remain visible when doors are open or closed. Postings should state the radiation dose rate and the entry requirements. If more than one radiological hazard exists in an area, the posting should identify each hazard. Postings that indicate an intermittent radiological condition should include a statement specifying when the condition exists such as; for example, when a red light is on. The same posting requirements apply for x-ray or gamma radiation as for any other type of radiation. The following documents are required to be posted: 1. A current copy of the 17 CCR, incorporated sections of 10 CFR 20, and a copy of operating and emergency procedures applicable to work with sources of radiation (If posting of documents specified above is not practicable, the registrant may post a notice which describes the document and states where it may be examined.) 2. A current copy NOTICE TO EMPLOYEES in a sufficient number of places to permit individuals working in or frequenting any portion of a restricted area to observe a copy on the way to or from such area.

69 Radiation Protection Program 16 REPORTS ON YOUR RADIATION EXPOSURE HISTORY 1. California Radiation Control Regulations require your employer to give you a written report if you receive an exposure greater than the limits set in the radiation safety standards. Basic limits for occupational radiation exposure can be found in Section referencing title 10, Code of Federal Regulations, part 20. Limits on exposure to radiation and exposure to concentrations of radioactive material in air are specified in title 10, Code of Federal Regulations, part 20, subpart C. 2. If the radiation protection standard, under 10 CFR 20 (subpart F) requires that your radiation exposure be monitored, your employer must, upon your request, (a) give you a written report of your exposures upon termination of your employment, and (b) advise you of your exposures annually. INSPECTIONS The Department or one of its contractors will inspect your workplace from time to time to ensure that health and safety requirements are being followed and that these requirements are effective in protecting you. Inspectors may confer privately with you at the time of inspection. At that time you may direct the inspector s attention to any condition you believe is or was a violation of the safety requirements. In addition, if you believe at any time that any health and safety requirements are being violated, you or your workers representative may request that an inspection be made by sending a complaint to the Department of Public Health or other official agency. Your complaint must describe the specific circumstances of the apparent violation and must be signed by you or your workers representative. The Department is required to give your employer a copy of any such complaint. Names may be withheld at your request. You should understand, however, that the law protects you from being discharged or discriminated against in any way for filing a complaint or otherwise exercising your rights under the California Radiation Control Regulations. POSTING REQUIREMENTS Copies of this notice must be posted in a sufficient number of places in every establishment where employees are employed in activities regulated by the California Radiation Control Regulations, to permit employees working in or frequenting any portion of a restricted area to observe a copy on the way to or from their place of employment.

Continued registration is required for X-ray machines that are not used but are physically present in a facility or are in storage. This guidance does not apply to particle accelerators. Although there is no residual radiation, there may be environmental restrictions on what components may go into a land-fill after disassembly, such as chemical contaminants in cooling oil. Any hazardous materials should be disposed of by appropriately licensed companies or authorities. We shall follow the disposal instructions provided by the manufacturer in the product manual, and/or contact the manufacturer for information and guidance. Formatted: No bullets or numbering When manufacturer guidance is not available: The X-ray machine components may be returned to a commercial X-Ray machine assembler or vendor; or The X-ray machine may be totally disabled and the components sold as scrap metal or disposed of according to our county s environmental requirements; or The X-ray machine may be rendered non-functional by disassembly and/or component removal such that repair and use may not be readily affected. Other Controls We shall evaluate the need for other controls in addition to those mentioned above. The following items will be considered: 1. Types of controls used to reduce or control exposure to radiation, such as positioning aids, gonad shielding, protective aprons, protective gloves, mobile shields, etc. 2. Procedures for routine inspection/maintenance of such controls. 7.

71 Radiation Protection Program 18 report within 15 days of the misadministration. The referring physician and the patient are notified within 24 hours, unless the physician takes the responsibility Of informing the patient. A written report should be sent to the patient within 15 days. 8. Record Keeping and Reporting We commit to comply with regulations governing record keeping and reporting. We shall maintain all records of the Radiation Protection Program, including annual program audits and program content review. The person responsible for maintaining all required records is the respective Department manager, who maintains it in paper form or computer file. The format is governed by the KDHCD on-line documentation. Mobile providers keep their own records that we have access to. 9. Reports to Individuals The KDHCD shall provide reports of individual exposure when requested in accordance with 17 CCR Monthly radiation badge report resides with each individual department after RSO completes the review. This report shall be posted in all applicable departments. Any employee getting exposure above the ALARA limits will be notified of the exposure, giving chance for the manager to reallocate the work site for that particular employee Radiation Safety Training A. Operating and Safety Procedures All machines have operating and safety procedure manual that resides with the machine. These safety procedures will be posted on the machine or where the operator can observe them while using the machine. All safety standards and procedures will be observed and practiced by employees as required by the California State department of Health, Title 17, for their own safety and that of the general public and patients. When new equipment is acquired, staff responsible for treatment use will be trained with either manufacturer on site or off-site or by radiation therapist or radiographer who has undergone training. Annual safety training is provided at the HDR machine. Any training including continuing education received by the staff will be documented. B. Occupational Workers KDHCD shall: 1.

The formulary system described in Pharmacy Manual Policy Formulary System: Drug Product Selection will be followed. II. III. Radiographic contrast is procured by filling out an appropriate supply requisition and sending it to the pharmacy department. A pharmacy department buyer places the order. Contrast Media Storage A. The contrast media are stored in the Imaging areas in which it is used: Diagnostic Radiology, C.T., MRI, Kaweah Delta Imaging Center, and Interventional Radiology. B. Contrast media will be stored: 1. In a segregated manner in accordance with the intended route of administration. 2. In a secure area. 3. Under necessary conditions to ensure stability. C. Use of contrast warmers 1. Clinical experience indicates that it is desirable for iodinated or non-ionic contrast media to be at body temperature (98.6F or 37C) prior to intravascular injection, and contrast warmers are

86 Contrast/Medication - Procurement, Storage, Control, Distribution, Administration and Monitoring of Radiographic Contrast Media 2 often used for this purpose. 2. The contrast warmer temperature should not exceed 98.6F (37C). Contrast media should be stored as specified on the package insert, and should not be kept in the warmer for any period of time longer than that reasonably needed to reach body temperature or to assure that a supply of properly warmed media is readily available for use in ongoing radiological procedures. 3. The First In, First Out method of inventory control will assure that the time each container remains in the warmer is relatively uniform. 4. Manufacturer states there is data to support allowing Isovue to remain in the contrast warmer not exceeding 98.6 F (37C) for less than one month when the product has at least 6 months remaining on labeled expiration date, and otherwise appears suitable for use. Bottles or vials of Isovue should be maintained in an upright position while in warmer Contrast bottles will be placed in the warmer at the beginning of the day for that days use and will be used on a first in first out basis. Bottles will not be stored in warmer for more than 24 hours. Warmer will be emptied at the end of each day to assure bottles are not left overnight. Any unused vials will be disposed of. IV. The technologists in the aforementioned Imaging areas monitor usage and place orders appropriately. V. Once an order is placed, contrast media are distributed to the appropriate Imaging area. VI. Contrast Media Ordering A. The order basics described in Patient Care Manual Policy CP 19 Medication: Administration are followed. B. Contrast media are administered to patients by order of the Radiologist performing the exam or the prescriber ordering the exam. VII. Contrast Media Administration A. The administration basics described in Patient Care Manual Policy CP 19 Medication: Administration are followed. 1. Exception: IV contrast media orders do not require a review by the pharmacist. The licensed independent practitioner (LIP) is in control of the ordering, preparation, and administration of

87 Contrast/Medication - Procurement, Storage, Control, Distribution, Administration and Monitoring of Radiographic Contrast Media 3 contrast media. a) In the radiology setting, LIP control of these processes does not require he/she be at the bedside or personally administering the contrast media. b) In the radiology setting, LIP control does require the LIP to be within the department in close proximity and readily available in the event of an adverse reaction during IV contrast administration. 2. Exception: Oral and rectal contrast media orders do not require a review by the pharmacist. Prior to administration, orders for oral and rectal contrast media are reviewed for appropriateness by the radiologist. A. Prior to radiographic contrast media administration, the patient is screened by the radiology technologist for any allergies or drug interactions, which would preclude product use. Pertinent information will be brought to the attention of the radiologist who will determine how to proceed. B. A RN or a Radiographer may inject contrast media. Those Radiographers who possess an IV certification may start IV if needed. C. Each patient, who receives iodinated or non-ionic contrast media, has the amount, type and any reactions recorded on the Radiology Procedure Record.

Please refer to the electronic copy for the latest version. Procedure: I. INDICATIONS - Differential diagnosis of obstructive vs. non-obstructive hydronephrosis - Evaluation of renal perfusion and function - Evaluation of differential renal function - Evaluation and follow-up of renal trauma - Evaluation and follow-up of renal transplants - Screening for renal vascular disease II. PRINCIPLE MAG3 is cleared rapidly from the blood stream primarily by tubular secretion with some glomerular filtration. Dynamic images are acquired posteriorly and a timeactivity curve is generated to indicate the function of each kidney expressed as uptake and clearance of the tracer. In the case of hydronephrosis, MAG3 will accumulate in upper urinary tracts. Following the administration of Lasix to cause diuresis, a washout of activity will be seen in the case of non-obstruction. In the case of obstructive hydronephrosis, however, washout does not occur. III. SCHEDULING Exam Duration: IV injection with immediate dynamic imaging (40 min) Followed with a pre and post void static image (5 min) Collimators: LEHR IV. PATIENT PREP No Lasix diuretics for 6 hrs prior to imaging. Pt needs to drink at 1-2 glasses of water no more than 30 min prior to imaging. Check for allergies to Lasix. Have pt empty bladder just prior to imaging. V. RADIOPHARMACEUTICAL

89 Nuc Med - Lasix Renogram 2 Isotope: 99mTc MAG3 Dose: 10 mci Diuretic Dose: 40 mg Lasix Administration: Intravenous Time from Injection to Imaging: Immediate (acquire flow study) VI. ACQUISITION PROTOCOL Have pt drink 1-2 glasses of water and start an IV (preferably large AC vein). Instruct pt to empty their bladder just prior to imaging. Images are acquired in the supine position. For native kidneys, posterior imaging is acquired. But for transplant kidneys, anterior pelvic imaging is best. Pt to be positioned in the camera FOV with xiphoid at the top of the FOV, hips at the bottom of the FOV to try and include bladder, if possible. It is important not to image too low and miss the top of the kidneys, except for when imaging transplant kidneys (which are usually located in the pelvic region). Flow study is acquired for the first 60 seconds post injection, followed by dynamic imaging for 40 minutes (40 frames, 1 min/ frame). When the technologist starts to see collecting system (renal pelvis and ureters), the RN is instructed to administer the Lasix and the computer time (see the P-scope display) needs to be recorded for processing purposes. It is important that Lasix never be injected later than 20 minutes remaining. If pt can tolerate holding their bladder, a 1-3 minute static with bladder and kidneys in the FOV is acquired pre-void. Have pt empty their bladder and repeat static image for the same length of time for a post-void image. At any time during the test, if the pt can no longer tolerate holding their bladder, exam is terminated.

Please refer to the electronic copy for the latest version. Comment [LM1]: Change Therapeutic Hold to Manual Hold (align with verbiage updates throughout policy) Purpose: Policy: To provide guidelines to ensure that the use of therapeutic holding (restraint) of patients is restricted to clinically appropriate and adequately justified situations in which less restrictive alternative methods have proven to be ineffective. Ongoing performance improvement monitoring will be used to ensure appropriate use of therapeutic holds Kaweah Delta Mental Health Hospital recognizes that the use of any type of restraint poses a significant inherent risk to an individual s to the physical safety and psychological well-being of the patient. The mental health hospital upholds each individual s the right of patients to be free from restraint, in any form, that is not medically necessary to protect patients fromprevent self-harm or harm of others. Direct care providers demonstrate competency in identifying indications for and use of manual restraint. All patient care staff will demonstrate competency in the indication and use of the restraint process (CP.24, Restraint/Seclusion of Patients). I. Definitions: Therapeutic HoldA manual hold is the use of the hands to limit the movement of patient a person s head, limbs or body when an emergency situation presents that places the patientan individual or others in immediate danger. For definitions of other types of restraint, please refer to CP.24PC.24, Restraints/Seclusion of Patients. II. General Provisions A. Indications: 1. A Therapeutic manual holds may be used when less restrictive means would not be effective to protect the physical safety of patients an individual or others. 1.
