  • INJECTION CONSENT FORM

  • The purpose of this document is to provide written information regarding the risks, benefits and alternativesof joint and soft tissue injections. This is supplementary to the discussion you will have with the doctor. It is important you fully understand this information so please read this document carefully.

    The Procedure:

    After the skin surface is thoroughly cleaned, the joint or soft tissue is entered with a needle attached to a syringe. At this point, either joint fluid can be obtained and sent for appropriate laboratory testing or medications/Platelet Rich Plasma/Stem Cell Therapy can be injected into the joint space. Commonly injected joints or soft tissue include the knee, shoulder, ankle, elbow and small joints of the hand and feet.

    Benefits:

    You might receive the benefit of relief from pain and swelling with this procedure but this cannot be guaranteed. Only you can decide if the benefits are worth the risk.

    Risks:

    Before undergoing one of these procedures, understanding the associated risks is essential. No procedure is risk- free. The following risks are well recognized, but there may also be risks not included in this list that are unforeseen by the doctors.

    • There may be allergic reactions to the medicines injected into joints, to tape or the chemicals used to clean the skin for instance.
    • There may be infection, although this is extremely rare. You may develop 'post-injection flare' which is joint swelling and pain several hours after any injections
    • Local fat atrophy (thinning of the skin) at the injection site.
    • Rupture of a tendon located in the path of the injection if inadvertently injected.
    • Pain may be associated with this procedure and the healing process.

  • X-RAY & FLUOROSCOPY CONSENT

  • TO THE PATIENT: You have the right to be informed about your condition and the recommended surgical, medical, or diagnostic procedure to be used so that you may make the decision whether or not to undergo the procedure after knowing the risks and hazards involve. This disclosure is not meant to scare or alarm you. It is so that you may choose to give or withhold your consent to the procedure.

    If you are pregnant or think that you may be pregnant, please inform the office immediately.

    Derek Dee, M.D may request to perform an x-ray to obtain additional information. X-rays produce images of the internal body parts being examined. X-rays are painless, however, radiation is emitted. Therefore, it is critical for you to inform Derek Dee's office if there is any possibility you could be pregnant. Because the x-ray is a diagnostic procedure, it provides information that may aid Dr. Derek Dee in diagnosing and treating your medical condition. Without the x-ray, accurate diagnosis and proper treatment may be delayed.

    During some fluoroscopic procedures, a contrast agent may be injected into your vein in order to produce better images of the part of your body that is being examined.

    POTENTIAL RISKS - The following complications are possible anytime an injection is given, there is potential for pain, bleeding, bruising or swelling at the injection site. Exams requiring contrast may result in a mild headache, nausea, itching or other vague symptoms for a short time after the injection. Additional allergic reactions in response to the contrast agent may include hives, shortness of breath or difficulty swallowing. It is very important to inform Dr. Derek Dee's office, if you experience any of the conditions mentioned in this form

    NOTE TO PATIENTS: If you previously had a reaction to a contrast injection such as hives, severe itching, shortness of breath and/or any significant reaction requiring hospitalization, a history of asthma, or other allergic conditions any history of anemia, sickle cell anemia, or kidney disorder, are pregnant or breast feeding you MUST inform Dr. Derek Dee's office.

    There may be other imaging alternatives; however, Derek Dee, M.D. believes the x-ray to be the best diagnostic test for you, considering your symptoms and conditions to assist with a diagnosis.
