Management of patients with coronary artery disease and chronic kidney disease

Abstract

There is a relationship between patients with chronic kidney disease and coronary artery disease. These two entities share both common etiologies and risk factors. Management of different patients with coronary artery disease in the aspect of renal insufficiency and certain medications such as contrast media is thus of high importance. Treatment nihilism is a major problem though and healthcare providers must make efforts to maintain a stable kidney function in all coronary artery disease patients.
