Chronic kidney disease is a global health burden, with an estimated prevalence of 11–13%, with the majority of patients diagnosed as stage 3, and is an independent risk factor for cardiovascular disease. The incidence of acute kidney injury is increasing, and estimated to be present in one in five acute hospital admissions, and there is a bidirectional relationship between acute and chronic kidney disease. The relevance to the patient with cardiovascular disease relates to increased perioperative risk, as reduced kidney function is an independent risk factor for adverse postoperative cardiovascular outcomes including myocardial infarction, stroke, and progression of heart failure. Furthermore, patients undergoing cardiovascular investigations are at risk of developing acute kidney injury, in particular where iodinated contrast is administered. This chapter reviews the classification of renal disease and its impact on cardiovascular disease, as well as potential methods for reducing the development of contrast-induced acute kidney injury.
