About this study

This single-center, randomized controlled trial is to investigate the impact of remote ischemic preconditioning (RIPC) on the risk contrast-induced acute kidney injury and its long-term impact on renal function for patients with diabetes undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention.

Read the detailed description

Patients with diabetes undergoing elective percutaneous coronary intervention in Beijing Anzhen Hospital were enrolled, and all the eligible participants were randomized to either remote ischemic preconditioning (RIPC) group or control group. Those randomized to RIPC group had a pneumatic medical tourniquet cuff (width , 5 cm ; length , 40 cm) placed around their upper arm at < 2 hours before the PCI procedure. The pneumatic medical cuff was inflated to a pressure of 200 mm Hg for 5 minutes , followed by 5 minutes of deflation to allow reperfusion. This procedure was repeated for 3 times. Control participants did not experience this procedure of transient upper-limb ischemia.

What is being measured

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

  1. acute kidney injury

    The primary study endpoint was AKI, defined as an absolute rise in serum creatinine of ≥ 0.5 mg/dl or a relative increase of ≥ 25% compared to baseline within 72 hours from PCI (the maximal measured concentration of serum creatinine during these 72 hours was used).

    Measured: 72 hours after procedure

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. relative reduction in estimated glomerular filtration rate

    Secondary endpoints were the relative reduction in estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) as well as all cause mortality, myocardial infarction and stent thrombosis at 30-day and 180-day after procedure.

    Measured: 180 days after procedure

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing remote ischemic preconditioning (RIPC) in people with Acute Kidney Injury, run by Beijing Anzhen Hospital at 1 site in China.

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 6 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 10 Apr 2013. 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 China. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

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?

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

What does the primary outcome measure?

acute kidney injury (time frame: 72 hours after procedure). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 10 Apr 2013.
