Iodinated contrast media (ICM) during contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CECT) in
the emergency department (ED) is essential to diagnose acute conditions, despite risks of …

Purpose To summarize the incidence of contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) and
associations between CIN incidence and risk factors in patients undergoing intravenous …

Objectives: Determine the incidence of patients at risk for contrast-induced nephropathy
(CIN), the incidence of CIN and mid-term effects (renal replacement therapy/death< one …

Background: Although several studies have examined contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN)
following computed tomography (CT) procedures under closely controlled clinical trial …

Contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) is the third most common reason for hospital-acquired
acute kidney injury. In-hospital and long-term mortality and morbidity (eg, stroke, myocardial …

BACKGROUND: The past decade has seen a proliferation in the number of CT procedures.
As increasing numbers of elderly patients with multiple comorbidities undergo contrast …

Results Five studies were included with 716 randomized patients. When CIN was defined as
increased serum creatinine (SCr)> or= 25%, the relative risk (RR) was 0.71 (CI95%: 0.40 …

Background: Acute kidney injury (AKI) following imaging procedures with contrast medium in
hospitalized patients is commonly attributed to contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN). This …

Background Contrast-induced acute kidney injury is a common cause of iatrogenic acute
kidney injury (AKI). Most of the published estimates of AKI after contrast use originate from …

Objectives Intravenous application of contrast media is part of a wide spectrum of diagnostic
procedures for better imaging quality. Clinical avoidance of contrast-enhanced imaging is an …
