Overview
Definition
There are three necessary components for the definition of CIN:[1]
- Elevated serum creatinine compared to the baseline values.
- Temporal relationship between the rise in serum creatinine and exposure to a contrast agent.
- Exclusion of alternative explanations for renal impairment.
Contrast-induced nephropathy is defined as either a greater than 25% increase of serum creatinine or an absolute increase in serum creatinine of 0.5 mg/dL that occur 48–72 hours following the exposure to CM.[1][2] According to a study that aimed to describe the course of creatinine rise and its determinants after exposure to contrast media, the first 24 hours post-exposure appear to be crucial in the development of CIN.[1][3] The same study showed that patients with less than 0.5 mg/dl rise in serum creatinine within the first 24 h were unlikely to have any clinically meaningful form of CIN.

Definition and staging of AKI
Not Graded |
"1. AKI is defined as any of the following:
|
"2. AKI is staged for severity according to the following criteria (Table 2). (Level of Evidence: Not Graded)" |
Table 2: Staging of AKI
Stage | Serum creatinine | Urine output |
1 | 1.5–1.9 times baseline OR ≥0.3 mg/dl (≥26.5 μmol/l) increase | <0.5 ml/kg/h for 6–12 hours |
2 | 2.0–2.9 times baseline | <0.5 ml/kg/h for ≥12 hours |
3 | 3.0 times baseline OR Increase in serum creatinine to ≥4.0 mg/dl (≥353.6 μmol/l) OR Initiation of renal replacement therapy OR In patients <18 years, decrease in eGFR to <35 ml/min per 1.73 m2 | <0.3 ml/kg/h for ≥24 hours OR Anuria for ≥12 hours |
Definition and staging of CI-AKI
Not Graded |
"1. Define and stage AKI after administration of intravascular contrast media as per Recommendations 2.1.1–2.1.2. (Level of Evidence: Not Graded)" |
"2. In individuals who develop changes in kidney function after administration of intravascular contrast media, evaluate for CI-AKI as well as for other possible causes of AKI. (Level of Evidence: Not Graded)" |
