Osmolality of contrast media can be resulted in translocational hyponatremia after percutaneous coronary intervention.
Radiocontrast media after percutaneous coronary interventioncan lead to increased osmolaliry of plasma, which results in translocational hyponatremia. The investigator will exam the incidence of hyponatremia after percutaneous coronary intervention, and will evaluate the underlying mechanism related to hyponatremia including translocational hyponatremia, or osmotic natriuresis.

RECRUITINGIncidence of contrast media induced translocational hyponatremia
The will investigator evaluate how often translocational hyponatremia may develop after percutaneous coronary intervention.
Time frame: 01/10/2010-28/02/2011
Renal function is affected by the incidence of translocational hyponatremia.
Reduced renal function and urine output contribute the development of contrast media induced translocational hyponatremia.
