iodine uptake test to study thyroid function. Which of the following instructions
should the nurse include?
A. "You need to stay at least 4 feet (1.2 m) away from other people after the
test because you'll be radioactive."
B. "You need to lie very still on a stretcher that is placed in a long tube for the
scan"
C. "Don't take any iodine or thyroid medication before the test."
D. "Schedule the bone scans before your radioactive iodine uptake test.“
Answer: C
Medications such as iodine, contrast media, and antithyroid and thyroid drugs
can affect the test results and should be withheld by the client for a week or
longer, as directed by the physician. During a radioactive iodine uptake test,
the client receives radioactive iodine by mouth or I.V. in small doses and
doesn't require isolation. During magnetic resonance imaging--not radioactive
iodine uptake testing--a client needs to lie still inside a long tube. Any test,
such as a bone scan, that requires iodine contrast media should be scheduled
after the radioactive iodine uptake test because the iodinated contrast medium
can decrease uptake.
