Association of Preprocedural Hyperglycemia With Contrast-Induced Acute Kidney Injury and Poor Outcomes After Emergency Percutaneous Coronary Intervention.
Angiology 2018 October
We investigated whether preprocedural hyperglycemia was associated with contrast-induced acute kidney injury (CI-AKI) and long-term outcomes in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) who underwent emergency percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Patients (n = 558) with ACS who underwent emergency PCI were consecutively enrolled. Preprocedural hyperglycemia was defined as glucose levels >198 mg/dL (11 mmol/L). The primary outcome was CI-AKI (≥0.3 mg/dL absolute or ≥50% relative serum creatinine increase 48 hours after contrast medium exposure). Overall, 103 (18.5%) patients had preprocedural hyperglycemia and 89 (15.9%) patients developed CI-AKI. The incidence of CI-AKI was significantly higher in patients with hyperglycemia than without (28.2% vs 13.2%; P < .01). Multivariate analysis indicated that preprocedural hyperglycemia was an independent predictor of CI-AKI (odds ratio = 1.971, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.129-3.441; P < .05). In addition, preprocedural hyperglycemia was associated with an increased risk of all-cause mortality during the 2-year follow-up (hazard ratio = 2.440, 95% CI: 1.394-4.273; P = .002). Preprocedural hyperglycemia is a significant and independent predictor of CI-AKI and long-term outcomes.
