Abstract:

Contrast-associated acute kidney injury (CA-AKI) is an important complication caused by the use of contrast medium (CM) in diagnostic or interventional surgery. At present, it has become one of the major causes of acute renal insufficiency in hospitalized patients. Choosing a relatively low toxic CM and reducing the exposure time and dose of CM can prevent CA-AKI occurrence to some extent. Drugs such as statins and postoperative hydration can reduce the risk of CA-AKI. In addition, nanomedicine has shown a benefit in animal models. This paper reviews the current prevention and treatment of CA-AKI to lay the foundation for further study of new interventions and provide a theoretical basis for clinical treatment.

Key words: contrast media, acute kidney injury, hydroxymethylglutaryl-CoA reductase inhibitors, nanoparticles, fluid therapy
