Iso-osmolar contrast media and adverse renal and cardiac events after percutaneous cardiovascular intervention
Abstract
Aim: To assess the relationship between type of contrast media (CM), iso-osmolar contrast media (IOCM) or low-osmolar contrast media (LOCM), and major adverse renal and cardiovascular events (MARCE). Materials & methods: Coronary or peripheral angioplasty visits were stratified into CM cohorts: IOCM or LOCM. Multivariable regression analysis used hospital fixed effects to assess the relationship between MARCE events and type of CM. Results: Among 333,533 visits (357 hospitals), the incidence of MARCE was 7.41%. After controlling for observable and unobservable time invariant within-hospital characteristics, administration of IOCM versus LOCM was associated with a 0.69% absolute and 9.32% relative risk reduction in MARCE rate. Conclusion: Our study indicates that as compared with LOCM, IOCM may be associated with reduction of MARCE events in coronary or peripheral angioplasty patients.
