Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common occurrence after contrast media administration. Hemodynamic changes, direct tubular injury, and reactive oxygen species are the proposed mechanisms involved in AKI. However, in most scenarios, it is not possible to establish causality despite extensive clinical evaluation, therefore, contrast-associated AKI (CA-AKI) has become a widely accepted term to define AKI postcontrast. CA-AKI is associated with worse clinical outcomes including cardiovascular events and mortality; however, discussions are ongoing whether CA-AKI is a marker of an increased risk of adverse outcomes or a mediator of such outcomes.
