Abstract

Although contrast induced nephropathy (CIN) is a well-known complication of radiocontrast media administration among patients with underlying renal insufficiency, however the data about CIN among patients with normal renal function are few and it seems that CIN often remained under-diagnosed among these patients. In the present study, we first determined the incidence of contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) in a sample of south Indian patients who candidated for coronary angiography and/or angioplasty, and then assessed major risk factors predicting the appearance of CIN following these procedures. Hence the present study designed to study the incidence of contrast induced nephropathy in contrast using procedure- coronary angiogram, in patients with normal renal function.
