What are the outcomes of contrast

Fewer than one-third of patients develop some level of residual renal impairment. Patients who need dialysis have a worse prognosis, with 35.7% inhospital mortality reported (compared to 7.1% in the nondialysis cohort) and 2-year survival of only 19%.

How long does it take the kidneys to recover from contrast dye?

While in most cases CI-AKI is self-limiting and creatinine or estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) return to baseline levels in 5–10 days, in patients with a high risk profile for kidney damage, CI-AKI is associated with increased rates of in-hospital and short-term outcomes.

How bad is contrast dye for kidneys?

But, sometimes the dye can cause serious problems in the kidneys. This is known as “contrast induced nephropathy (CIN).” About 1% to 3% of people who receive these special dyes develop changes in their kidney function. Anyone can get CIN, but those at the greatest risk have CKD.

Is CIN reversible?

In many cases, CIN is reversible and people can recover. However, in some cases, CIN can lead to more serious kidney problems and possible heart and blood vessel problems.
