AbstractMRI using gadolinium contrast media is useful in diagnosis; however, nephrogenic systemic fibrosis is a serious side effect of gadolinium exposure. Moreover, it turns out that gadolinium deposits in the brain. This has escalated the necessity for a suitable method to use gadolinium contrast media. I developed a new imaging method that had excellent contrast. This study examined the usefulness of that new imaging method and found the method is highly effective.

Meta Analyses

IntroductionContrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) is a common cause of hospital-acquired acute kidney injury (AKI) following the administration of contrast media for coronary interventions or procedures such as diagnostic coronary angiography. The optimal way of preventing CIN remains uncertain. However, preliminary intravenous hydration, minimizing the volume of contrast media, and avoiding the use of nephrotoxic drugs are recommended in current management guidelines. The aim of this analysis was to compare the RenalGuard® system with standard care.MethodsA comprehensive literature search was conducted in PubMed and Google Scholar to identify evidence on the clinical and economic effectiveness of forced diuresis with matched hydration using the RenalGuard system for preventing CIN. Multiple criteria decision analysis (MCDA) was used to assess the performance of the method in hospital settings, compared with alternative options.ResultsSeveral systematic reviews with meta-analyses demonstrated that forced diuresis with matched hydration using the RenalGuard system was associated with a significantly lower relative risk of CIN among high-risk patients with chronic kidney disease. However, the evidence supporting the advantage of the proposed method over current forced diuresis techniques with manual calculation of the volumes for matched hydration in the hospital setting was limited.ConclusionsAlthough the effectiveness of the RenalGuard system has been demonstrated in meta-analyses, its clinical advantage over forced diuresis with manual hydration calculation is uncertain. It is also worth noting the lack of evidence to date on this technology, the fact that it is still at the research stage in some countries, and that it is not included in CIN management guidelines.

Anaphylactoid Reactions

This protocol for rapid desensitization to intravenous radiographic contrast material (RCM) improves the strategy first reported by Uppal et al. Desensitization is a validated preventative measure for medical emergencies, such as cardiac catheterization, when patients present with histories of anaphylactoid reactions to the allergen of concern. The patient required another catheterization that was modified to repeat the final dosage of 320 mg/mL of Visipaque®, accommodating cardiac catheterization postponement, contrary to readministration of doses 4 (0.625 mg/mL) and 8 (10 mg/mL) as reported in Uppal et al. Our risk score calculations suggested that the patient was at low risk of contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) that did not necessitate reduced dosage. No complications were reported following catheterization. We propose repetition of the final RCM dosage as a more effective and efficient desensitization strategy, as long as the scoring system does not indicate high risk for CIN.
