POST-CONTRAST ACUTE KIDNEY INJURY AFTER CATHETER ANGIOGRAPHY AND EVALUATION OF RISK FACTORS

Abstract

Purpose : The present study aimed to determine the rate of post-contrast acute kidney injury (PC-AKI) after catheter angiography other than cardiac angiography (CAG), and identify relevant risk factors.Materials and methods : This retrospective study analyzed data from 314 patients who underwent angiography between October 2013 and September 2018. We investigated the incidence of PC-AKI, defined as a ≥50% increase or ≥0.3 mg/dL increase in serum creatinine (SCr) values 1-3 days after angiography according to the European Society of Urogenital Radiology guidelines on contrast media, version 10.0. The effects of patient- and procedure-related factors on the incidence of PC-AKI were evaluated. Data were analyzed using chi-squared and Mann-Whitney U tests, and multivariate logistic regression analysis.Results : PC-AKI developed in 16/314 patients (5.1%). Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed a correlation of incidence of PC-AKI with advanced age, decreased estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), shock symptoms, and high-dose contrast media within 24 hours. In all patients with PC-AKI, SCr values returned to baseline within 2 weeks.Conclusions : PC-AKI after angiographic examinations developed in 5.1% of patients, and the increase in SCr was reversible. Advanced age, decreased eGFR, shock symptoms, and highdose contrast media within 24 hours are possible risk factors
