Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Anuria is the absence of urine production which can indicate impaired kidney function or complete urinary tract obstruction. IVU requires the administration of contrast media that needs to be excreted by the kidneys. With anuria, the contrast media will not be filtrated, leading to its accumulation in the bloodstream and posing a risk of contrast-induced nephropathy. Hypertension and hematuria are not contraindications for IVU, but they should be investigated and managed to determine their underlying cause.
