Nephrotoxicity of low osmolar radiocontrast agents in patients with chronic renal failure.
Dr. P. Cacoub, Department of Nephrology, Hôpital Pitié-Salpêtrière, 47-83, boulevard de l’Hôpital, F-75651 Paris Cédex 13 (France) Dear Sir, Acute renal failure has long been recognized as a potential hazard of radiocontrast administration, especially in patients with preexisting renal failure [1]. Recently developed low osmolar agents have been considered less nephrotoxic, but some studies ind...
متن کاملThe Effect of Dignity Therapy on Human Dignity in Patients with Chronic Renal Failure Undergoing Hemodialysis
Background: Chronic renal failure is a life-threatening condition; patients due to the prolonged stress are very susceptible to mental health problems. Dignity therapy is a novel therapeutic approach to the treatment of psychological problems for patients who suffer from life-threatening illnesses. Aim: This study examined the impact of dignity therapy on human dignity in patients undergoing he...
متن کاملEFFEC T OF HEMODI ALYSIS ON TRACE ELEMENTS IN PATIENTS WITH ACUTE AND CHRONIC RENAL FAILURE
Hemodialysis is being implicated in the development of metabolic disturbances, as complications have been observed and the role of trace metals in their development has been questioned. In 78 renal failure patients who underwent hemodialysis, serum levels of zinc and copper were determined before and after first hemodialysis. Acute and chronic renal failure patients were found to have lowe...
متن کاملRenal failure in 57 925 patients undergoing coronary procedures using iso-osmolar or low-osmolar contrast media.
We compared the Swedish Coronary Angiography and Angioplasty Registry with the Swedish 'Hospital Discharge Register' to assess contrast media (CM)-induced renal failure. Hospitals used only one type CM. From 2000 to 2003, iodixanol (iso-osmolar) was used in 45 485 patients, ioxaglate (low osmolar) in 12 440 subjects. To include the earlier used CM iohexol (low osmolar), analysis extended back t...
متن کاملMolecular Mechanisms of Renal Cellular Nephrotoxicity due to Radiocontrast Media
Modern iodinated radiocontrast media are all based on the triiodinated benzene ring with various chemical modifications having been made over the last few decades in order to reduce their toxicity. However, CIN remains a problem especially in patients with pre-existing renal failure. In vitro studies have demonstrated that all RCM are cytotoxic. RCM administration in vivo may lead to a decrease...
