Radiographic Contrast-Media-Induced Acute Kidney Injury: Pathophysiology and Prophylactic Strategies

Abstract: 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 ne… Show more

“…It causes a prolonged in-hospital stay and predicting a bad recovery (Hou et al, 1983;Briguori et al, 2011). Although a number of measures had been taken to decrease the incidence of CIN, including invention of safer CM, improvement of hydration protocols, and usage of additional protective drugs, many patients still suffered the ravages of it (Sadat, 2013;Andreucci et al, 2014). Hemodynamic changes of renal blood flow by CM (Persson et al, 2005) and direct toxic effects on renal cells (Romano et al, 2008) are thought to be the main pathogenesis of CIN.…”

“…22,23 The pathophysiology of CIN probably involves a combination of direct tubular toxicity and renal ischemic injury but remains incompletely understood. 24,25 There is also evidence suggesting renal dysfunction at admission in patients with stroke is associated with poor outcomes. 26 During emergent stroke evaluation and treatment, patients often have unknown medical histories and are unable to provide this history or history about the aforementioned CIN risk factors.…”
