Problems with CI‐AKIProblems with CI AKI

• You are 13 times more likely to die in the first 30 days after Cath if you get CI‐AKI1

• CI‐AKI is associated with significant rates of potentially deadly and costly complications most often leading to dialysis2costly complications, most often leading to dialysis

• Patients who develop CI‐AKI are more likely to experience adverse events, undergo prolonged dialysis, have longer hospital and ICU stays and have higher mortality rates. The average in‐hospital cost of CI‐AKI is $10,3453

E i d h i l b $2 3 000 d 4• Estimated hospital costs range between $2‐3,000 per day4

• CI‐AKI can initiate CRF and be “final straw” on path to dialysis at $58 000/year or transplant at $250 0004$58,000/year or transplant at $250,0004

Current Approaches to CI‐AKI Preventionpp• Overnight hydration: recommended but challenging in practice

– 12 hours of hydration both pre‐ and post‐procedure on in‐patient basis  

– logistically cumbersome, uncomfortable and requires staffing

• Bolus hydration in lieu of overnight hydration– risk of volume overloadl d t f f h d ti d l– less common due to fear of over‐hydration and pulmonary edema

• Other therapies– infusion of Mucomyst (NAC) or sodium bicarbonate

• Recent studies confirm ineffectiveness
