Abstract Funding Acknowledgements Type of funding sources: None. Background. Contrast-induced acute kidney injury remains one of the dangerous complications of percutaneous coronary interventions, in spite of the evolution of contrast media and prevention strategies. Many researchers assume that this syndrome is not as frequent as it used to be and its clinical importance is overestimated. Purpose. The aim of the study was to assess the rates of contrast-induced acute kidney injury in a prospective study in patients with chronic coronary syndromes after percutaneous coronary interventions in 2012 and 2017 respectively. Methods. 1023 patients with chronic coronary syndromes and indications for the interventions with intra-arterial contrast media administration were included in the prospective open cohort study. 561 patients were enrolled in 2012 and 462 in 2017 respectively. The contrast media remained the same both in 2012 and 2017. Preventive measures included the administration of 0,9% saline 1 ml/kg/h intravenously and 0,5 kg/ml/h for the patients with heart failure before and after procedure. The primary endpoint was the development of contrast-induced acute kidney injury.  Results. The incidence of contrast-induced acute kidney injury decreased more than 3 times in 2017 than in 2012 (6% vs. 18,5%, 28 patients vs 104 patients respectively). The difference was statistically significant (p < 0,0001). The patients included in the study in 2017 were older, had higher body mass index and had more risk factors, than the ones enrolled in 2012. We organised several conferences for all the cardiologist involved in the treatment of patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention, as well as were printing materials describing the risk assessment and preventive measures that should be done in patients with chronic coronary syndromes before percutaneous coronary interventions (eg, stopping metformin and nephrotoxic drugs). Conclusion. The prevalence of contrast-induced acute kidney injury is decreasing not only due to the evolution of contrast media and preventive strategies, but also due to the higher level of education of all the doctors about the syndrome and its prognosis, as well as available preventive measures and treatment options.

The possibilities of rational use of iodine radiopaque agents in computed tomography and percutaneous coronary interventions are considered, taking into account the route, method of their administration and the viscosity of their solutions. When fixing the rate of iodine administration and the temperature of the injected solution, the required injection pressure of the contrast media is determined by the solution viscosity.

Background: Coronary artery disease (CAD) is the major disease leading to cause mortality and morbidity. The imbalance between the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and the intrinsic antioxidant defense system leading to the oxidative stress, has been implicated in the pathogenesis of the cardiovascular disease. The formed free radicals and subsequent lipid peroxidation may be responsible for myocardial damage in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary interventions. Therefore, the understanding of the pathophysiological role of ROS generated during or after coronary interventions is essential to improve the success rate of these procedures.Aims and Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the time course changes of oxidant and antioxidant status, in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI).Materials and Methods: The study included 120 consecutive patients (117 males, 3 females; mean age 58.4 years) who underwent elective PCI. Coronary angiography and coronary angioplasty were performed according to the standard protocols. Blood samples were taken just before (0hrs) and at 4 hrs and 24 hrs after coronary interventions to determine the oxidative status i.e. plasma malondialdehyde (MDA) and for antioxidative status, erythrocyte glutathione peroxidase (GPx), erythrocyte glutathione (GSH) and plasma ferric reducing ability of plasma (FRAP).Results: There was significant increase in MDA levels (1.87±0.34, 1.90±0.46, p=0.000), at 4hrs and 24hrs after coronary interventions when compared to baseline levels. After coronary interventions, the GPx activity (12.96±8.37, 12.3±7.76, p=0.000) and FRAP levels (0.73±0.21, 0.70±0.23, p=0.001 respectively) were found to be increased significantly at 4hrs and 24hrs. However, the glutathione levels (2.40±0.57, 2.47±0.53, p=0.040) were decreased at 4hrs and 24hrs after coronary interventions.Conclusion: Our study demonstrates that presence of oxidative stress in coronary interventions. The increase in antioxidants in the present study may be due to paradoxical increase in oxidant levels in patients undergoing coronary interventions.Asian Journal of Medical Sciences Vol.8(2) 2017 29-33
