Prevention of Contrast-Induced Nephropathy - Full Text View

Sponsor:	University of Alberta
Collaborator:	Health Services Research and Innovation Fund (Alberta Heritage Foundation for Medical Research)
Information provided by:	University of Alberta
ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier:	NCT00175227

Purpose

Patients with pre-existing kidney disease are at high risk of acute renal failure when exposed to radio-contrast dyes, for example during a cardiac angiogram.

The investigators hypothesize that an infusion of saline + furosemide + mannitol will reduce rates of contrast-induced nephropathy when compared with saline infusion controls.

Condition	Intervention
Contrast-Induced Nephropathy Acute Renal Failure Chronic Renal Failure	Drug: intravenous saline hydration + mannitol + furosemide Drug: intravenous saline hydration

Study Type:	Interventional
Study Design:	Prevention, Randomized, Double Blind (Subject, Caregiver, Investigator, Outcomes Assessor), Active Control, Parallel Assignment, Safety/Efficacy Study
Official Title:	Prevention of Contrast-Induced Nephropathy: a Randomized Controlled Trial of Saline + Furosemide + Mannitol in High Risk Patients Undergoing Cardiac Angiography

Primary Outcome Measures:

Proportion of patients that develop contrast-induced nephropathy after cardiac angiography [ Time Frame: Within 48 hours of angiogram ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]

Secondary Outcome Measures:

Safety of the intervention based on transfer to ICU, need for dialysis, or death [ Time Frame: During hospitalization episode ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]
Adverse clinical events and measures of renal function [ Time Frame: 6 weeks post-angiogram ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]
Health related quality of life [ Time Frame: 6 weeks post-angiogram ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
Subgroup analyses based on (a) diabetes; (b) amount of contrast; and (c) baseline creatinine [ Time Frame: Within 48 hours of angiogram ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]

Estimated Enrollment:	200
Study Start Date:	May 1996
Primary Completion Date:	October 2000 (Final data collection date for primary outcome measure)

Arms	Assigned Interventions
Intervention: Experimental Saline hydration + mannitol + furosemide	Drug: intravenous saline hydration + mannitol + furosemide 500 mls half-normal saline + 25g mannitol + 100 mg furosemide
Controls: Placebo Comparator Saline hydration without mannitol or furosemide	Drug: intravenous saline hydration 500 mls half-normal saline

Detailed Description:

Patients with pre-existing kidney disease are at high risk of acute renal failure when exposed to radio-contrast dyes, for example during a cardiac angiogram.

We hypothesize that an infusion of saline + furosemide + mannitol will reduce rates of contrast-induced nephropathy when compared with saline infusion controls.

We define an episode of contrast nephropathy using the conventional often published definition of a 25% relative increase in serum creatinine OR a 44 umol absolute increase in serum creatinine within 48 hours of contrast exposure.
