Contraindications Absolute

Absolute contraindications are restrictions on the use of treatment methods and diagnostic procedures that completely exclude the possibility of their use. There are many methods in medicine that may have contraindications. Some of them may be associated with the individual characteristics of the patient’s body, such as allergies to certain medications or the presence of other diseases, while other contraindications may be caused by technical limitations, for example, during operations.

Absolute contraindications may vary depending on the method of treatment or diagnosis. For example, when using certain medications, there may be contraindications associated with individual intolerance to the components of the drug. Also, some treatment methods may be contraindicated in the presence of certain diseases or conditions, such as pregnancy, breastfeeding, acute infectious diseases.

In order to determine contraindications before using a specific treatment method or diagnostic measure, it is necessary to conduct a thorough medical examination of the patient and conduct additional research. It is important to remember that contraindications can arise at any time during treatment or diagnosis, so the doctor must be prepared to identify them and take appropriate measures.

In general, absolute contraindications play an important role in medicine, as they help prevent possible complications and negative consequences for the patient’s health. However, if contraindications have not been taken into account, this can lead to serious consequences for the health and life of the patient. Therefore, it is important to carefully evaluate all possible contraindications and take appropriate measures to eliminate them.

Absolute contraindications

Absolute contraindications are contraindications that completely exclude the possibility of using a treatment method or diagnostic measure, regardless of the individual condition of the patient and his somatic status. Although in such cases the method (or procedure) may be unethical, inappropriate, dangerously arbitrary, or morally unacceptable, it remains the priority. Severe and life-threatening diseases are often considered absolute contraindications. In the examples above, all complications can serve as a reason to refuse the patient to perform a particular procedure. However, the concept of absolute contraindications goes much further - any procedure, even safe or having a small number of complications, but carried out without sufficient indications, will be regarded as an absolute contraindication. Thus, the diagnostic procedure is contraindicated in case of anaphylaxis, disseminated intravascular coagulation syndrome, as well as severe acute illness in the patient, etc. Absolute contraindications are established in the presence of relevant information or a disease that precludes the possibility of performing a particular therapeutic, diagnostic or prophylactic procedure. This information comes in the form of special instructions in manuals for performing medical procedures or special material in a scientific article.
