The Effect of Whole Blood Viscosity on Contrast-Induced Nephropathy Development in Patients Undergoing Percutaneous Coronary Intervention

In our study, we aimed to investigate how whole blood viscosity (WBV) affects the development of contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).

About this study

In our study, 500 patients who applied to the cardiology clinic and underwent PCI for elective procedure, ST segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI), and non-STEMI were prospectively included. Before the procedure, we calculated WBV using the formula [(0.12 × hematocrit) + (0.17 × (total protein - 2.07)]. We defined CIN as the absolute (≥0.5 mg/dl) or relative increase (≥25%) in serum creatinine 48-72 h after exposure to a contrast agent compared with baseline serum creatinine values.

Primary outcomes

  1. Contrast Induced Nephropathy

    Time frame: 48 to 72 hours

    CIN was defined as an increase in serum creatinine levels greater than 0.5 mg/dl or 25% or more increase compared to basal serum creatinine levels 48 to 72 h after exposure.
