Protecting the kidneys

Catheter Cardiovasc Interv. 2019 Jun 1;93(7):1236. doi: 10.1002/ccd.28355.

Abstract

The DyeVert Plus system is a unique device that reduces contrast volume without sacrificing image quality. Important components to reduce acute kidney injury include volume expansion, contrast reduction, and screening for risk. Operators can make a conscious effort to limit contrast volume by limiting angiography to one cine run per vessel.
