Contrast-induced nephropathy: pharmacology, pathophysiology and prevention
Modern iodinated contrast media (CM) consist of one or two tri-iodobenzene rings. They differ from each other in the composition of the side chains, creating different molecules and thus different brand substances. After intravascular administration, all CM are distributed rapidly into intravascular and extracellular fluids. They are eliminated solely by glomerular filtration. In patients with ...
متن کاملContrast-induced nephropathy: pathophysiology and preventive strategies.
Contrast-induced nephropathy is the third most common cause of hospital-acquired renal failure, after decreased renal perfusion and nephrotoxic medications. Identification of patients at risk and implementation of preventive strategies can decrease the incidence of this nephropathy. Prevention strategies focus on counteracting vasoconstriction, enhancing blood flow through the nephron, and prov...

متن کاملContrast-induced nephropathy--prevention and risk reduction.
Contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) is a serious, but potentially preventable adverse event associated with the use of iodinated contrast media (CM). Studies suggest that the occurrence of CIN is directly related to the number of pre-existing patient risk factors such as pre-existing renal insufficiency (RI) with or without diabetes, advanced age, congestive heart failure and dehydration. Becaus...
متن کاملChapter 32. Prevention of Contrast-Induced Nephropathy
Radiocontrast-induced nephropathy (RCIN) represents an increasingly common cause of treatment-related renal failure and increases mortality independent of other risk factors. Major risk factors for RCIN include chronic renal insufficiency, diabetes mellitus (especially when accompanied by renal insufficiency), any condition associated with decreased effective circulating volume, and use of larg...
