Contrast Enhanced Computed Tomography

Background: Despite its risks associated with renal injury, intravenous contrast media increases diagnostic efficacy and hence the chance of early diagnosis and treatment, which leaves clinicians in a dilemma regarding its use in emergency settings. Objective: The aim of this study was to determine the risk and predictors of contrast-induced acute kidney injury following intravenous contrast media administration for computed tomography in the emergency department. Methods: All patients aged 18 years and older who had a basal creatinine measurement within the last 8 h before contrast-enhanced computed tomography and a second creatinine measurement within 48–72 h after computed tomography scan between 1 January 2015 and 31 December 2017 were included in the study. Characteristics of patients with and without contrast-induced acute kidney injury development were compared. Multivariate regression analysis was used to assess the predictors for contrast-induced acute kidney injury. Results: A total of 631 patients were included in the final statistical analysis. After contrast media administration, contrast-induced acute kidney injury developed in 4.9% ( n = 31) of the patients. When the characteristics of patients are compared according to the development of contrast-induced acute kidney injury, significant differences were detected for age, initial creatinine, initial estimated glomerular filtration rate, and all acute illness severity indicators (hypotension, anemia, hypoalbuminemia, and need for intensive care unit admission). A multivariate logistic regression analysis was performed. The need for intensive care unit admission (odds ratio: 6.413 (95% confidence interval: 1.709–24.074)) and hypotension (odds ratio: 5.575 (95% confidence interval: 1.624–19.133)) were the main factors for contrast-induced acute kidney injury development. Conclusion: Our study results revealed that hypotension, need for intensive care, and advanced age were associated with acute kidney injury in patients receiving contrast media. Therefore, we believe that to perform contrast-enhanced computed tomography in emergency department should not be decided only by checking for renal function tests and that these predictors should be taken into consideration.

Abstract Background and Aims Computed tomography with intravenous contrast media is widely used in hospitals. The incidence of CI-AKI due to intravenous contrast media administration in high-risk patients remains not studied as well as CI-AKI after intraarterial contrast media administration is. According to other researchers, the use of statins in the prevention of AKI after intra-arterial administration of a contrast agent is currently considered an efficient preventive measure. The aim of our study is to assess the incidence of contrast-induced acute kidney injury in patients with cardiovascular diseases during CT scan with intravenous contrast media and analyze the efficacy and safety of various statin dosing regimens for prevention of CI-AKI. Method A randomized controlled open prospective study is planned. Statin naive patients with cardiovascular diseases will be divided into 3 groups. Patients in the first group will receive atorvastatin 80mg 24 hours and 40mg 2 hours before CT scans and 40 mg after. The second group – 40 mg 2 hours before CT scans and 40 mg after. A third group is a control group. Exclusion criteria were current or previous statin treatment, contraindications to statins, severe renal failure, acute coronary syndrome, administration of nephrotoxic drugs. The primary endpoint will the development of CI-AKI, defined as an increase in serum Cr concentration 0.5 mg/dl (44.2 mmol/l) or 25% above baseline at 72 h after exposure to the contrast media. Results We assume a higher incidence of contrast-induced acute kidney injury in the group of patients not receiving statin therapy (about 5-10%). At the same time, it is unlikely to get a significant difference between statin dosing regimens. Risk factors such as age over 75 years, the presence of chronic kidney disease, diabetes mellitus, and chronic heart failure increase the risk of contrast-induced acute kidney injury. Conclusion Despite the significantly lower incidence of CI-AKI with intravenous contrast compared to intra-arterial, patients with CVD have a greater risk of this complication even with intravenous contrast. Therefore, the development of prevention methods and scales for assessing the likelihood of CI-AKI is an important problem. As a result of the study, we expect to conclude the benefits of statins in CI-AKI prevention and the optimal dosage regimen. This information will help us to reduce the burden of CI-AKI after CT scanning in statin naive patients with cardiovascular diseases in everyday clinical practice. ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT04666389
