Contrast-Induced Nephropathy: Risk Factors, Clinical Implication, Diagnostics Approach, Prevention
Contrast induced nephropathy (CIN) is an important and well‐known complication in pa‐ tients with chronic renal insufficiency undergoing both coronary angiography and coronary interventions. The estimated incidence of CN after coronary angiography was around 15%. In fact, CIN is the third leading cause of acute renal failure in hospitalized patients [1]. CIN is usually transient disorder, but i...
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 کاملContrast-Induced Nephropathy Following CT Scan and Its Associated Factors
Background and purpose: Contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) as a common complication of administration of contrast media (CM) is a major source of hospital morbidity and mortality. The aim of this study was to determine the incidence of CIN after contrast-enhanced CT scan and identifying the related risk factors. Materials and methods: A cross-sectional study was carried out in 100 patients att...
متن کاملRisk factors for contrast-induced nephropathy.
An increasing number of diagnostic imaging and interventional procedures require the use of radiographic contrast agents which has led to a parallel increase in the incidence of contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN). CIN is a serious clinical problem associated with increased morbidity and mortality, particularly in patients with chronic renal failure (see the Case Report). A key step to minimize ...
متن کاملContrast medium-induced nephropathy, a more practical approach to prevention?
To The Editor: we read with interest the good review article by Drs Sterner and Nyman [1] concerning the safe use of intravascular contrast medium for both coronary interventions and multichannel detector computed tomography. As a radiology department in the United Kingdom, our current policy is to follow specific guidelines issued by the Royal College of Radiologists [2] When compared, the two...
