Risk factors for development of contrast-induced nephropathy.

Nonmodifiable Modifiable
Patient-related factors
Age
Diabetes mellitus with CRF
Preexisting renal failure Volume depletion
Congestive heart failure Anemia, PCI related blood loss
Hemodynamic instability Nephrotoxic drug use
Nephrotic syndrome Low serum albumin
Renal transplant

Procedure-related factors

IABP Volume of contrast media
Emergent/primary PCI Multiple administration of CM within 72 hours
Intraarterial CM administration Osmolality and ionicity of CM

CM, contrast media; CRF, chronic renal failure; IABP, intra-aortic balloon pump; PCI, percutaneous coronary intervention.
