This week we review a recent work on contrast induced acute kidney injury in the ACHD patient undergoing catheterization. Are there data to suggest what a safe volume of dye might be in this population of patients? Does the renal response to contrast suggest something about the general health of the patient? How does the team in Boston plan catheterizations in the adult congenital population to minimize contrast usage? We review these questions and others with the first author of this work, Dr. Laura Gellis, who is a senior clinical fellow in cardiology in the Department of Cardiology, Boston Children's Hospital - Harvard Medical School. doi: 10.1002/ccd.27798.
