Revision as of 21:24, 10 June 2014
Background
- Vasoconstriction leading to ischemia in the deeper portion of the outer medulla
- Toxic to kidney tubular cells, inducing vacuolization, change in mitochondrial function, and apoptosis
Clinical Features
- 0.5mg/dl absolute or >25% relative increase in serum creatinine 48-72hrs after contrast exposure
Differential Diagnosis
- Poor renal perfusion
- Nephrotoxic medications
Workup
- Same for AKI
Management
- Hydration
- N-acetylcysteine
