Implication

Retrospective study evaluates contrast-induced nephropathy in stroke imaging, indicating increased risks in CKD patients.

Key Points

This study aims to evaluate the incidence and outcomes of contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) in patients undergoing stroke imaging, comparing those with and without chronic kidney disease (CKD).
Retrospective chart review of adult patients who received 100 mL of low-osmolality iodinated contrast during neuroimaging over 12 months.
CIN defined as a ≥ 25% increase in serum creatinine or an absolute rise of ≥ 0.5 mg/dL within 48-72 hours post-exposure.
Analysis of incidence of CIN, relative risk (RR), and hospital outcomes including need for dialysis and ICU admission.
CIN developed in 27 of 134 CKD patients (20.1%) versus 18 of 411 non-CKD patients (4.4%), representing an RR of 4.57 (95% CI: 2.56-8.16).
Mean rise in serum creatinine was 0.6 mg/dL in CKD patients with CIN and 0.3 mg/dL in non-CKD patients.
Patients with CIN had longer hospital stays (8 vs. 5 days, p < 0.05) and higher rates of ICU admission and complications, though all cases were reversible.
