This study compares the incidence of post-contrast acute kidney injury (PC-AKI) in patients who received a single administration of iodine-based contrast medium (ICM) with that in patients who received a sequential administration of ICM and gadolinium- based contrast agents (GBCA) in a single visit to an emergency department (ED) to determine the risk factors for PC-AKI.Methods
Patients who received one or more contrast media in the ED from 2016 to 2021 were included in this retrospective study. They were divided into the ICM alone and ICM + GBCA groups, and the incidence of PC-AKI was compared between the groups. The risk factors were assessed using a multivariable analysis after propensity score matching (PSM).Results
Overall, 6,318 patients were analyz
