ABSTRACT: Background
Risk stratification has been one of the main steps in preventing contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN), which is a common complication after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Elevated arterial lactate is a biomarker indicating severe disease condition and post-intervention complications. The relationship between lactate and CIN has not been established. This study is performed to investigate the relationship between elevated arterial lactate level and contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN).Methods
Patients diagnosed with ST-segment elevated myocardial infarction (STEMI) were prospectively enrolled, with lactate measured within 0.5-1 hours before primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Patients with cardiopulmonary resuscitation, any forms of severe ana
