Radiographic Contrast-Media-Induced Acute Kidney Injury: Pathophysiology and Prophylactic Strategies
نویسنده
چکیده
Contrast-induced acute kidney injury (CI-AKI) is one of the most widely discussed and debated topics in cardiovascular medicine. With increasing number of contrast-media- (CM-) enhanced imaging studies being performed and growing octogenarian population with significant comorbidities, incidence of CI-AKI remains high. In this review, pathophysiology of CI-AKI, its relationship with different types of CM, role of serum and urinary biomarkers for diagnosing CI-AKI, and various prophylactic strategies used for nephroprotection against CI-AKI are discussed in detail.

PURPOSE OF REVIEW Contrast-induced acute kidney injury (CI-AKI) is an impairment of renal function following contrast media administration in the absence of an alternative cause. It represents a powerful predictor of poor early and late outcomes. Here, we review the major strategies to prevent CI-AKI. RECENT FINDINGS Hydration represents the gold standard as a prophylactic measure to prevent ...
متن کاملAcute Kidney Injury by Radiographic Contrast Media: Pathogenesis and Prevention
It is well known that iodinated radiographic contrast media may cause kidney dysfunction, particularly in patients with preexisting renal impairment associated with diabetes. This dysfunction, when severe, will cause acute renal failure (ARF). We may define contrast-induced Acute Kidney Injury (AKI) as ARF occurring within 24-72 hrs after the intravascular injection of iodinated radiographic co...
متن کاملAcute kidney injury with iodinated contrast.
Diagnostic and interventional radiographic procedures in critically ill patients commonly depend on iodinated contrast media and consequently pose the risk of contrast-induced acute kidney injury. This is an important complication that accounts for a significant number of cases of hospital-acquired renal failure, with adverse effects on prognosis and healthcare costs. The epidemiology and patho...

Irrational use of medicines is a major problem worldwide. Since iodixanol (Visipaque®) was categorized in Category I (AV) based on the ABC-VED analysis in our hospital, we evaluated the amount of visipaque use and estimated the incremental cost based on the maximum contrast dose (MCD) following irrational use of contrast media. This retrospective study was conducted on 100 admitted patients age...
متن کاملPrevention of Contrast-Induced Nephropathy through a Knowledge of Its Pathogenesis and Risk Factors
Contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) is an iatrogenic acute renal failure (ARF) occurring after the intravascular injection of iodinated radiographic contrast media. During the past several years, in many patients undergoing computed tomography, iodinated contrast media have not been used for the fear of ARF, thereby compromising the diagnostic procedure. But recent studies have demonstrated that...
