Brain Death Certification App vs KAK

The brain death certification app provides step by step guidance with demonstration videos for testing for brain stem death and the certification process in India developed by Medindia Ltd.

Quick risk-calculator for contrast-induced nephropathy based on validated clinical model KAK-CIN Score is a clinical decision-support tool designed to help healthcare professionals estimate the probability of Contrast-Induced Nephropathy (CIN) in patients who will receive intravascular contrast medium. The algorithm is based on the peer-reviewed study by Kulkarni et al (Indian Journal of Nephrology, 2023) which derived and validated a simplified risk score system. Key features: Input four key patient variables: Estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate (eGFR) Contrast volume (mL) Route of contrast administration (arterial vs intravenous) Presence or absence of Diabetes Mellitus Instantly calculates a risk-percentage for CIN and provides a risk category (e.g., low, moderate, high) and provides the CIN Score.

The original study included 1,300 patients (derivation 1,000 + validation 300) with an observed incidence of CIN of 3.8 %. The model showed high sensitivity (90.4 %) and specificity (98.8 %) in the validation cohort. Unlike many prior CIN risk models that were limited to cardiac catheterisation, this score covers both intra-arterial and intravenous contrast exposure.
