About this study

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

  • Inpatients at Norton Community Hospital scheduled to undergo diagnostic CT Scan using contrast between the hours of 7am and 6pm
  • 18+ years of age

Exclusion Criteria

  • Current clinical diagnosis of exacerbated congestive heart failure
  • Creatinine >8 mg/dL
  • Change in serum Cre of at least 0.5mg/dL during previous 24hours
  • Pre-existing dialysis patient
  • Multiple myeloma
  • Uncontrolled hypertension (definition: treated SBP >160mmHg or DBP >100mmHg
  • Exposure to contrast 48 hours prior to study

  • Patient has received pressor agents, fendolapam, mannitol, or mucomyst at time of study
  • Acute myocardial infarction

Subjects: Consecutive samples of all CPSC inpatients who meet the above inclusion criteria

Allocation Assignment: Patients who meet inclusion criteria and agree to participate in the study will pick a concealed number out of an open envelope. That number (between 1- 656) will correlate with a number on a sealed opaque envelope. Inside the opaque envelope will be a chart sticker. The chart sticker will have the words either normal saline or sodium bicarbonate. The envelope will not be opened until all patient information (ie. Patient ID sticker) is placed on the original chosen envelope. Then the chart sticker will be removed and placed on the chart

Protocol Outline:

This will be a randomized controlled trial closely following the original protocol in the previous study. 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

  • 3 amps of sodium bicarbonate mixed in one liter of D5WDrug

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Development of contrast-induced nephropathy, defined as an increase in serum creatinine of 25% or more within 2 day after administration of contrast

Secondary outcomes (9)
  1. change in mean arterial pressure after initial bolus, mmHg

  2. urine pH after initial bolus

  3. contrast volume

  4. change in serum bicarbonate

  5. change in serum potassium

  6. change in serum glucose

  7. change in serum creatinine

  8. change in estimated glomerular filtration rate

  9. incidence of contrast induced nephropathy

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing 3 amps of sodium bicarbonate mixed in one liter of D5W in people with Contrast Induced Nephropathy, run by Norton Community Hospital at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 11 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 26 Oct 2006. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Donna S Sanders, DO (276-708-7021, dsanders_nch@yahoo.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Development of contrast-induced nephropathy, defined as an increase in serum creatinine of 25% or more within 2 day after administration of contrast. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00392405, which also lists 2 linked publications.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 26 Oct 2006.
