Contrast-induced nephropathy is associated with significant morbidity and mortality after PCI. Patients undergoing primary PCI may be at higher risk of CIN because of hemodynamic instability and unfeasibility of adequate prophylaxis. In 208 consecutive AMI patients undergoing primary PCI, we measured serum creatinine concentration (Cr) at baseline and each day for the following three days. Contrast-induced nephropathy was defined as a rise in Cr >0.5 mg/dl. Overall, CIN occurred in 40(19%) patients. Of the 160 patients with baseline Cr clearance ≥60 ml/min, only 21(13%) developed CIN, whereas it occurred in 19(40%) of those with Cr clearance< 60 ml/min(p< 0.0001). In multivariate analysis, age >75 years(odds ratio5.28, 95%confidence interval1.98 to 14.05; p=0.0009), anterior infarction(OR 2.17, 95%CI 0.88 to 5.34; p=0.09), time-to-reper-fusion >6 h (OR 2.51, 95%CI 1.01 to 6.16; p=0.04), contrast agent volume >300 ml (OR 2.80, 95%CI 1.17 to 6.68; p=0.02) and use of intraaortic balloon (OR 15.51, 95%CI 4.65 to 51.64; p< 0.0001) were independent correlates of CIN. Patients developing CIN had longer hospital stay (13±7 days vs. 8±3 days; p< 0.001),more complicated clinical course, and significantly higher mortality rate (31%vs.0.6%; p < 0.001). Contrast-induced nephropathy frequently complicates primary PCI, even in patients with normal renal function. It is associated with higher in-hospital complication rate and mortality. Thus, preventive strategies are needed, particularly in high-risk patients.展开更多
