Abstract
Purpose: The purpose of this study was to compare the incidence of contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) with the three commonly used contrast media in coronary angiography.
Methods: In this prospective observational study, 574 consecutive patients who were referred for coronary angiography to our cardiovascular center, were included. Patients were categorized into three groups based on the received contrast media, including iopromide (Ultravist®), iodixanol (Visipaque®), and iohexol (Omnipaque®). Patients’ demographic characteristics, past medical history, and risk factors were recorded. Renal function was evaluated in all the patients within 48 hours before and 72 hours after the procedure. CIN was defined as an increase in the serum creatinine level by 0.5mg/dl or by 0.25% from the baseline.
Results: Our results demonstrated that CIN occurred similarly in the 3 groups of contrast media (p-value = 0.935). Moreover, multivariate analysis revealed significant adjusted associations between CIN and smoking (OR: 2.832, 95% CI: 1.098-7.303, P: 0.031), pre-existing renal disease (OR: 8.252, 95% CI: 3.145-21.654, P < 0.001) and volume of contrast media (OR:1.004, 95% CI:1.001-1.008, P:0.024).
Conclusion: The three commonly used contrast media, iopromide, iohexol, and iodixanol have a similar risk of CIN in patients undergoing coronary angiography with or without PCI.
