A randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind clinical trial of effect of allopurinol or febuxostat to prevent contrast induced acute kidney injury (CI-AKI)
all patient presented with ST elevated myocardial infarction and underwent PPCI will be calculated with CHA2DS2-VASC score and contrast volume / creatinine clearance as apredictive value for Contrast induced nephropathy and the predictive value of these scores will be compared with the approved predictive value of MEHRAN score which is also will be calculated to every patient .
In this study, the investigators aimed to evaluate the incidence of vena cava inferior diamater on ultrasound guidance of intravascular volume before diagnosis of contrast - enhanced CT for diagnostic purposes in ileus patients and to investigate the incidence and risk of developing contrast nephropathy due to contrast - enhanced CT.
The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the effectiveness of ischemic preconditioning in the emergency department to prevent contrast induced nephropathy
Contrast Induced Nephropathy is an acute renal insufficiency defined as a 25% or 0.5 mg/dl increase over the baseline of the serum creatinine level 24 h to 72 h after intravascular administration of a contrast agent.
Contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) is a well-recognized complication of radiographic contrast administration and is associated with increased short- and long-term mortality. Previous strategies including forced diuresis with diuretics or mannitol, intravenous administration of fenoldopam or dobutamine, and postprocedure hemodialysis to prevent CIN have been largely unsuccessful. In addition, the use of N-acetylcysteine to prevent CIN has yielded conflicting outcomes. A review of a large insurance database and retrospective study have shown that statins therapy is associated with a lower incidence of CIN after percutaneous coronary intervention. The preventive effect of statins on CIN may be attributed to direct pleiotropic effects on the vascular wall such as improvement of endothelial dysfunction, anti-inflammatory or anti-oxidative effect. However, recent randomized trial could not demonstrate the preventive effect of statin on CIN in patients with chronic kidney disease. Thus, we will investigate the preventive effect of pitavastatin on CIN in patient with renal dysfunction undergoing coronary angiography or intervention.
This will be a randomized controlled trial closely following the original protocol in the previous study published in JAMA 2004 by Merten et al. Patients will be randomly assigned to one of two treatment groups. Treatment group A will receive 1cc/kg/hour of 0.9% normal saline at least 2 hours prior to study beginning and will be continued during and for 6 hours post contrast. Treatment group B will receive 3cc/kg of sodium bicarbonate solution for one hour prior to procedure then drip rate will be decreased to 1cc/kg/hour during and for 6 hours post procedure. The sodium bicarbonate solution will be made by adding 3 amps of bicarbonate to 1L of D5W. Patients in both treatment arms weighing >110kg the initial fluid bolus and drip will be limited to those patients weighing 110kg. In both treatment arms, diuretics will be held before and after contrast administration on the day of the study. BMP will be checked the day of, 24 and 48 hours post contrast administration. The greatest change in all readings will be used for treatment comparisons. Contrast induced nephropathy will be defined as a change in serum creatinine of more than 25% from baseline and/or 0.5mg/dL. Urinary pH will also be measured on first spontaneous void following bolus. Vital signs including blood pressure and oxygen saturation will be documented every 4 hours to monitor patients closely for signs and symptoms of volume overload
