Abstract: Contrast-induced acute kidney injury (CI-AKI) is a frequent complication following the use of iodinated contrast media, particularly in patients with underlying risk factors such as chronic kidney disease and diabetes. The prevalence ranges from 2% to 25%, depending on patient characteristics and procedure type. CI-AKI is linked to increased hospital stay, morbidity, and mortality. Preventive measures like adequate hydration and use of low- or iso-osmolar contrast agents can reduce its incidence. Early identification and management are essential to improve outcomes.
