Abstract

Background: Contrast induced nephropathy (CIN) is a common complication seen after primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) which can contribute to increased morbidity and mortality in patients of acute ST elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). Aim of this study was to validate the TIMI Risk Index (TRI) for the risk stratification of CIN in patients undergone primary PCI. Methods: Consecutive patients of STEMI undergone primary PCI at a tertiary care cardiac center were included for this study. Patients in Killip class IV at presentation, patients with history of any PCI and chronic kidney diseases were excluded from this study. TRI was calculated using the formula “” and post-procedure serum creatinine level increase of either 25% or 0.5 mg/dL was taken as CIN. Results: A total of 507 patients were included in this study out of which 82.2% were males and 17.8% were females. In total 8.7% (44) patients developed CIN. In the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis, area under the curve (AUC) for TRI was found to be 0.717, [0.649–0.758] for the prediction of CIN. Sensitive, specificity, positive predictive value and negative predictive value of TRI >22.8 to predict the development of CIN were 59.09%, 76.69%, 19.55% and 95.19% respectively. Conclusion: TIMI risk index is and easy to calculate and readily accessible score which has good predictive value to evaluate the risk of CIN in primary PCI setting.
