During procedures (such as cardiac catheterizations) that use contrast media, or dyes, large amounts of unused dye can become contaminated with the patient's blood and must be thrown out. Radiographic contrast media conservation systems (RCMCSs) are administration sets designed to reduce the waste of these expensive dyes by (1) isolating the bags or bottles supplying the dyes from contamination, allowing the remaining contents to be used again on another patient, and (2) minimizing the amount of dye left in the administration set (and therefore discarded) at the end of the procedure. In this Evaluation, we examined five burette RCMCSs from three suppliers. We tested the systems for their ability to protect the source containers from contamination, for their performance and design features, and for their ease of use. We also provide information on transfer line assembly RCMCSs, which perform some of the same functions but without using a burette, in a supplementary article within this Evaluation. In addition, a brief Purchasing Guide provides recommendations on deciding whether to purchase RCMCSs and how to choose among systems.
