Red Blood Cell Distribution Width as a Marker of Contrast Induced Nephropathy in Patients With Coronary Intervention

May 23, 2017 updated by: Sherly Boshra, Assiut University

Red Blood Cell Distribution Width as a Predictor Marker of Contrast Induced Nephropathy in Patients Undergoing Percutaneous Coronary Intervention

Contrast Induced Nephropathy is an acute renal insufficiency defined as a 25% or 0.5 mg/dl increase over the baseline of the serum creatinine level 24 h to 72 h after intravascular administration of a contrast agent.

Study Overview

Status

Unknown

Detailed Description

Contrast Induced Nephropathy has been introduced an important complication after coronary angiography and Percutaneous Coronary Intervention .

The development of Contrast Induced Nephropathy after Percutaneous Coronary Intervention is associated with poor clinical outcomes including prolonged hospitalization, increased costs, increased rates of end-stage renal failure, myocardial infarction, repeat revascularization, and short- and long-term mortality.

Contrast Induced Nephropathy follows decreased renal perfusion and administration of nephrotoxic medications as the third most common cause of renal insufficiency during hospitalization.

Patients with acute coronary syndrome have a 3-fold higher risk of developing Contrast Induced Nephropathy .Therefore ,predicting contrast nephropathy and initiating therapeutic preventive strategies are very important.

Red Blood Cell Distribution Width is a quantitive marker of the variability on size of erythrocyte.

It is a routine assay of Complete Blood Count that doesn't require an additional cost, that is calculated by dividing the standard deviation of the mean cell size by the Mean Corpuscular Volume of the red cells and multiplying by 100 to convert to a percentage.

Normal range of Red Blood Cell Distribution Width 11-16%. Increased Red Blood Cell Distribution Width means increased variability in red blood cell size owing to ineffective erythrocyte production, which is associated with indices of inflammation and pro-inflammatory cytokines such as interleukin-6 .

On the other hand, suggested mechanisms underlying Contrast Induced Nephropathy include cytotoxic effects, factors that affect renal hemodynamic, and regional hypoxia.
