Trial summary

Contrast-induced nephrophaty (CIN) accounts for more than 10% of hospital-acquired renal failure. Hydration with sodium bicarbonate is more protective than isotonic saline in animals. Limited data are available in humans. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Sodium Bicarbonate Versus Saline for the Prevention of Contrast-induced Nephropathy in Patients Undergoing Coronary Angiography

Contrast-induced nephrophaty (CIN) accounts for more than 10% of hospital-acquired renal failure. Hydration with sodium bicarbonate is more protective than isotonic saline in animals. Limited data are available in humans. We compared the efficacy of sodium bicarbonate versus isotonic saline to prevent CIN in a large population of patients with renal dysfunction undergoing coronary angiography or intervention.

Being tested
Sodium Bicarbonate, Isotonic Saline
Keywords
Contrast-induced nephrophaty, Contrast media, Angiography, Coronary percutaneous intervention

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Sodium BicarbonateDrug

    Patients in the sodium bicarbonate group (154 mEq/L) received 3 ml/kg for 1 hour before contrast medium, followed by an infusion of 1 ml/kg/h for 6 hours after the procedure

  • Isotonic SalineDrug

    Patients assigned to the isotonic saline group received 1 ml/kg/h 0.9% sodium chloride for 12 hours before and after the procedure

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Sodium Bicarbonate and Isotonic Saline in people with Contrast-Induced Nephropathy, run by Ospedale Misericordia e Dolce at 1 site in Italy.

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 1 inclusion and 3 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 8 May 2012. 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 Italy. 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 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

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

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00606827, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 8 May 2012.
