Mehran contrast nephropathy risk score: Is it still useful 10 years later?

Abstract: Mehran risk score has been validated in our study as a good score for predicting CIN in patients with ACS who underwent coronary angiography. According to this, we support its use in patients hospitalized for ACS in order to identify the ones at risk, and to optimize CIN prophylactic therapy prior to and after catheterization.

“…13) Numerous studies have described the risk factors for CIN, which primarily include an extended duration of DM, preexisting chronic kidney disease, old age, heart failure, hypertension, and hypotension. 11,14) Similarly, the present study confirmed that age > 75 years, male gender, hypertension, diabetes, baseline sCr and eGFR < 60 mL/minute, LVEF < 40%, as well as ACEI/ARB and diuretic use were significantly associated with CIN. In addition, we also showed that sklotho was negatively correlated with CIN, consistent with previous studies involving other kinds of AKI.…”

“…The Mehran risk score is currently the most widely used risk score for predicting the risk of CIN [3,18]. Although the population of the present study was different from those of Mehran's study, Values are represented as means AE SD, medians (interquartile range), or percentages.…”

“…It is crucial that patients at the highest risk for developing AKI be identified prior to PCI so that a risk reduction strategy may be employed. Mehran and colleagues developed a well‐validated and widely accepted risk score that could be readily applied by clinicians to evaluate individually predicted patient risk for developing AKI following PCI . Although previous data support the use of short‐term hemodynamic support with a pLVAD as an AKI risk reduction strategy during high‐risk PCI, validation specifically for Impella‐related renal protection and its clinical application for this purpose is lacking.…”
