Renal failure after radiological contrast media.
Over a 12-month period four patients developed acute renal failure after undergoing radiological investigations using contrast media. Though the incidence of serious complications is low, the possibility of adverse side effects must be weighed against the usefulness of the information provided by these techniques.
متن کاملViscosity of contrast media perturbs renal hemodynamics.
Contrast-induced nephropathy is a common cause of acute renal failure, and the mechanisms underlying this injury are not completely understood. We sought to determine how physicochemical properties of contrast media may contribute to kidney damage in rats. We administered contrast media of equivalent iodine concentrations but differing physiocochemical properties: the high-osmolality iopromide ...
متن کاملInfluence of the timing of cardiac catheterization and amount of contrast media on acute renal failure after cardiac surgery
Postoperative acute renal failure (ARF) is not uncommon after cardiac surgery and after angiography. However, limited information exists regarding the influence of the interval between cardiac catheterization and subsequent cardiac surgery and amount of contrast agent used during this procedure on the occurrence of postoperative ARF. Data for 423 consecutive adult patients who underwent electiv...
متن کاملRenal failure after omeprazole.
SIR,-An 86-year-old woman had a 10 year history of oesophagitis and had been treated intermittently with cimetidine or ranitidine. Because of progression in symptoms in 1989, omeprazole 40 mg daily was started. At that time the patient had normal serum creatinine concentration. 2 months later she was admitted with renal failure: maximum serum creatinine 858 pmol/L (normal < 120). A renal needle...
متن کاملPathogenesis of Renal Failure in Multiple Myeloma: Any Role of Contrast Media?
The spectrum of kidney disease-associated monoclonal immunoglobulin and plasma cell malignancies is remarkably broad and encompasses nearly all nephropathologic entities. Multiple myeloma with kidney impairment at presentation is a medical emergency since the recovery of kidney function is associated with survival benefits. In most cases, kidney impairment may be the first clinical manifestatio...
