Core Tip Contrast-associated acute kidney injury remains a major complication in high-risk patients undergoing contrast-based procedures. While standard prevention relies on individualized hydration and contrast minimization, the role of prophylactic renal replacement therapy remains controversial. Evidence consistently shows that hemodialysis does not prevent contrast-associated acute kidney injury, whereas early hemofiltration may offer benefit in carefully selected patients with advanced chronic kidney disease and limited tolerance to fluid expansion. However, inconsistent trial results and logistical constraints preclude routine use. This review critically evaluates current evidence, highlights patient selection and timing considerations, and underscores the need for adequately powered randomized trials.
