[Risk factors of contrast-induced nephropathy in patients after coronary artery intervention].

OBJECTIVE: To explore the risk factors of contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) in patients after coronary artery intervention. METHODS: A total of 637 patients undergoing diagnostic coronary angiography or percutaneous coronary intervention were enrolled. They were divided into the CIN and non-CIN groups according to the changes in serum creatinine levels within 48 hours after coronary artery intervention. Then the relevant risk factors of CIN were analyzed. RESULTS: Among them, CIN occurred in 49 patients with an incidence of 7.7%. The patients with diabetes and renal insufficiency had higher incidence of CIN at 15.5% and 22.5% respectively. Logistic regression analysis showed that the risk factors of CIN included advanced age, smoking, diabetes, renal insufficiency, hypercholesterolemia and hyperuricemia. CONCLUSION: For the patients of coronary artery intervention, the major risk factors of CIN are advanced age, diabetes and renal insufficiency.
