Verified step by step guidance

Understand the purpose of an intravenous pyelogram (IVP), which is a radiological procedure used to visualize abnormalities of the urinary system, including the kidneys, ureters, and bladder.

Recognize that preparation for an IVP is crucial to ensure clear imaging results. This often involves dietary restrictions and other preparatory steps.

Identify that fasting for 8-12 hours before the procedure is commonly required to ensure the stomach is empty, which helps in obtaining clearer images and reduces the risk of nausea from the contrast dye.

Consider the importance of hydration. Drinking a large amount of water before the procedure may be recommended to ensure the kidneys are functioning well and to help flush out the contrast dye after the procedure.

Note that avoiding dairy products for 24 hours before the procedure might be advised to prevent any potential interference with the imaging process, as dairy can sometimes affect digestion and imaging clarity.
