Contrast-Induced Nephropathy [PDF]

open access: yesAngiology, 2015
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).

Contrast-induced nephropathy

European Radiology Supplements, 2005
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).

The Prevention of Contrast-Induced Nephropathy

Annals of Pharmacotherapy, 2014
Objective: 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, 2012
Contrast 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.

Contrast-Induced Nephropathy

Angiology, 2014
Contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) represents an important adverse effect of contrast media (CM) administration. Contrast-induced nephropathy is associated with prolonged hospitalization as well as increased cardiovascular morbidity, renal morbidity, and all-cause mortality.

Contrast-induced nephropathy: a review

Cardiovascular Revascularization Medicine, 2005
Contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) is one of the leading causes of renal impairment in the United States and the third cause of hospital-acquired renal failure. Reduction in the incidence of CIN can lead to a decrease in the morbidity, mortality, and length of hospital stay.

Radiologic Contrast-Induced Nephropathy

Journal of Urology, 1984
Contrast nephropathy is the third most common cause of hospital-acquired renal insufficiency. While its exact pathogenesis is unclear, patients with existing renal disease are now known to be at increased risk for developing this complication. Identification of these patients by determination of serum creatinine levels may enable avoidance of contrast ...

Contrast-Induced Nephropathy: Contrast Material Not Required?

American Journal of Roentgenology, 2008
This commentary deals with the study by Newhouse and colleagues in this issue of the AJR discussing the implications of a lack of a control group in previously published studies on contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN).Until more rigorous studies including an appropriate control group address the issue of CIN, our understanding of the actual risk of CIN ...
