Abstract 2275: The Association of Cardiac Catheterization Timing, Contrast Media Amount, and Preoperative Renal Function with Post Cardiac Surgery Acute Renal Failure and Mortality
Abstract:Background
The effect of cardiac catheterization timing, contrast media dose, and preoperative renal function on post cardiac surgery acute renal failure (ARF) prevalence is unclear.
Methods and Results
Data of 395 consecutive patients who underwent CABG were prospectively collected. Glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) was estimated by the CockcroftGault equation. Patients were divided into 3 groups according to th… Show more
