Prediction of post-contrast acute kidney injury by bedside ultrasonography.
BMC Emerg Med
January 2025
Department of Emergency Medicine, Recep Tayyip Erdoğan University Training and Research Hospital, Rize, 53020, Turkey.
Background: The incidence of contrast-induced acute kidney injury (CI-AKI) in the general population ranges from 0.6 to 2.3%, whereas for specific high-risk patients, the incidence can reach more than 30-40%.

Department of Cardiology, Faculty of Medicine, Inonu University, Malatya, Turkey.
Aims: Contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) is a condition characterized by rapidly decreasing renal funciton following by the application of contrast material. Precutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is a life-saving treatment method that should be applied under emergent conditions. Unfortunately, the incidence of CIN after PCI is common.

Coronary artery disease (CAD) is the leading cause of mortality among patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD), presenting unique challenges in diagnosis and management. Advanced CKD patients often present with atypical symptoms, and conventional diagnostic and interventional approaches carry risks, including contrast-induced nephropathy and the potential need for renal replacement therapy. These risks have led to the phenomenon of "renalism," where necessary procedures may be deferred due to concerns over renal injury.

Adult Cardiology Department, Aswan Heart Centre, Magdi Yacoub Foundation, Aswan, Egypt.
Article Synopsis
- The study focused on elderly patients (70+) undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention (pPCI) for ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) at a tertiary center in Upper Egypt, highlighting a growing concern for cardiovascular disease in aging populations.
- The research included data from 3,627 patients, finding that 15.9% were elderly, with significantly higher in-hospital mortality rates, particularly among octogenarians (23.3%) compared to younger patients (4%).
- Elderly patients showed distinct clinical characteristics, such as higher rates of hypertension and chronic kidney disease, and were more likely to have severe complications post-procedure, emphasizing the need for tailored strategies in managing this demographic in cardiovascular care.
Tailored Hydration for the Prevention of Contrast-Induced Acute Kidney Injury After Coronary Angiogram or PCI: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.
Am Heart J
January 2025
Université de Montréal, Montreal, Quebec; Montreal Heart Institute, Montreal, Quebec. Electronic address:
Background: Contrast-induced acute kidney injury (CI-AKI) is a frequent complication of coronary interventions associated with an increased risk of mortality and morbidity. The optimal intravenous hydration strategy to prevent CI-AKI is not well-established. The primary objective is to determine if a tailored hydration strategy reduces the risk of CI-AKI and of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) in patients undergoing coronary angiography compared with a non-tailored hydration strategy.
