Contrast-Induced Nephropathy [PDF]
A 48-year-old man presents to the Emergency Department and complains of new onset of chest pain with exertion. He has a history of tobacco use, hypercholesterolemia, type 2 diabetes mellitus, and chronic renal disease (baseline serum creatinine concentration [SCr] 1.7 mg/dL; estimated glomerular function [eGFR] 47 mL/min per 1.73m2).

How contrast medium-induced nephropathy (CIN) comes about is not fully understood, although CIN constitutes a leading cause of renal failure. Here, a short review of clinical trials and a more thorough outline of mechanisms thought to cause CIN are outlined. Osmolality is only one of several physicochemical properties of contrast media (CM).

Low Hematocrit Predicts Contrast-Induced Nephropathy After Percutaneous Coronary Interventions
BACKGROUND: The relationship between low hematocrit and contrast-induced nephropathy has not been investigated. METHODS: Of 6,773 consecutive patients treated with percutaneous coronary intervention, contrast-induced nephropathy (an increase of >/=25% or

The Prevention of Contrast-Induced Nephropathy
Annals of Pharmacotherapy, 2014Objective: Contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) is a complication which may develop after exposure to iodinated contrast media. The resulting acute kidney injury (AKI) is associated with an increase in both short- and long-term morbidity and mortality, increased hospital length of stay, and greater health care costs.

Pathophysiology of contrast-induced nephropathy
International Journal of Cardiology, 2012Contrast media induce various factors that may increase vasoconstriction and decrease vasodilatation in the renal medulla, leading to hypoxia and acute tubular necrosis known as contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) that tends to occur in diabetics and patients with preexisting renal insufficiency.
