Abstract :

AIM:To Study the various demographic variables in radio-contrast induced nephropathy Cases Methods: The present prospective study on �incidence of contrast-induced nephropathy� was conducted on the patients admitted in the cardiac care unit Total of 254 patients were taken. All the subjects included in the study underwent coronary / renal angiography using 50-60ml of iohexol non-ionic radiopaque contrast media.All the patients were subjected to a detailed history, clinical examination and laboratory investigations which were recorded in the predesigned performa for this study. RESULTS:More male patients (152; 59.84%) were observed than female patients (102; 40.16%) during the study period.Male to female ratio was 1.49:1.Most male patients 51 (33.55%) were observed in 50-59 years age group, followed by 49 (32.24%) in 60-69 years age group, followed by 22 (14.47%) in > 70 years age group.Similarly, female patients were 33 (32.35%) in 50-55 yr age group, followed by 27 (26.47%) in 60-69 years age group followed by 21 (20.59%) in > 70 years age group.Least number of male patients were 6 (3.95%) observed in 19-29 years of age group.Similarly, only 3 (2.94%) female patients were observed in 19-29 yrs age group.Most patients were from urban back ground with 173 (68.11%) whereas 81 patients belonged to the rural areas (31.88%).CONCLUSION:Contrast media (CM) are increasingly used in diagnostic and interventional procedure. This results in the rising incidence of iatrogenic renal function impairment caused by exposure to CM, a condition known as CIN
