Shortcomings
The assignement of corresponding changes in serum creat and
changes in urine output to the same strata is not based on evidence. The criteria that results in the least favorable rifle strata to be used. The patient would progress from "risk" on day one to "injury" on day two and "failure" on day three, even though the actual GFR has been <10 mL/min over the entire period. It is impossible to calculate the change in serum creatinine in patients who present with ARF but without a baseline measurement of the serum creat. The authors of the RIFLE criteria suggest back-calculating an estimated baseline creat using the four-variable MDRD equation, assuming a baseline GFR of 75 mL/min per 1.73 m2 .

Key Points
The absolute incidence of acute renal failure (ARF) has increased in the
past two decades, while the mortality rate has remained relatively static
The lack of a standard definition of ARF complicates the process of
factors that have contributed to altered epidemiology of ARF in the past few decades have been identified
These factors include geographical site of disease onset (developed vs
developing countries; community vs hospital vs intensive care unit), patient age, infections (HIV, malaria, leptospirosis and hantavirus), concomitant illnesses (cardiopulmonary failure, hematooncological disease), and interventions (hematopoietic progenitor cell and solid organ transplantation)
of cellular injury and the normalization of renal function with reversal of the altered hemodynamic factors.

the third highest cause of hospital-acquired acute renal failure. In nearly half of these patients, CMIN occurred during cardiac diagnostic or interventional procedures such as percutaneous coronary intervention.

Normal baseline creatinine Mild to moderate CKD Mild to moderate CKD + DM Advanced renal insufficiency
Tubuloglomerular Feedback
The injection of CM induces early, rapid renal
vasodilatation followed by prolonged vasoconstriction, with an increase in intrarenal vascular resistances, a reduction of total renal blood flow (RBF) and a decrease in glomerular filtration rate (GFR). Conversely, the effect on the extrarenal vasculature is transient vasoconstriction that precedes a stable decrease in vascular peripheral resistances. The resulting renal ischaemia due to these haemodynamic effects is, in part, responsible for nephropathy
mechanisms
Treatment
The best treatment of contrast-induced renal
failure is prevention! The use, if clinically possible, of ultrasonography, magnetic resonance imaging or CT scanning without radiocontrast agents, particularly in highrisk patients. The use of lower doses of contrast and avoidance of repetitive studies that are closely spaced (within 48 to 72 hours). Avoidance of volume depletion or nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs, both of which can increase renal vasoconstriction. The use of low or iso-osmolal nonionic contrast agents.
Treatment
The administration of Intravenous Saline.
Isotonic saline at a rate of 1 mL/kg per hour, begun at least two and preferably 6 to 12 hours prior to the procedure, and continuing for 6 to 12 hours after contrast administration. The administration of the antioxidant Acetylcysteine. Dose of 600 to 1200 mg orally twice daily, administered the day before and the day of the procedure, based upon its potential for benefit and low toxicity and cost.
Treatment
Routine hemofiltration or hemodialysis for the
prevention of contrast nephropathy in patients with stage 3 and 4 CKD is not recommended. More data are needed in stage 5 CKD (Prophylactic use of hemodialysis in patients with stage 5 CKD, can be considered,provided that a functioning access is already available)

The volume of contrast administered to the

Hepatorenal syndrome
ARF in HRS results from profound renal vasoconstriction in the setting of histologically normal kidneys. Although many of the features of HRS resemble prerenal azotemia, the defining feature is a lack of improvement in renal function with volume expansion. Recovery of renal function is usually observed after restoration of hepatic function after liver transplantation

Avoidance or discontinuation of drugs that increase renal vaso-constriction, such as NSAID and selective COX-2 inhibitors. Potentially nephrotoxic medications should be avoided, particularly in high-risk patients, whenever possible. Using alternative imaging techniques such as MRI scanning should be considered in patients at high risk for contrast .
