About this study

Official title: Phase 4 Study of Dexmedetomidine Effects on Preventing Contrast Induced Nephropathy

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of dexmedetomidine on renal function, hormonal and hemodynamic parameters in contrast media induced diabetic patients.

Read the detailed description

Contrast nephropathy may occur after using intravenous contrast media and may result in acute renal failure. Contrast nephropathy usually reversible but in some cases it can be permanent. This situation increase the time of hospitalization and mortality of the patients. Although the only proved prevention from contrast nephropathy method is hydration, infusion of dexmedetomidine may keep the renal functions.

Being tested
Dexmedetomidine, 0.9 % NaCl

What participants receive

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

  • DexmedetomidineDrug

    Also called Precedex

    Intravenously 1μg/kg/10min administered just before the procedure.

    1 μg/kg/h administered during the angiography and was continued 1 hour after the angiography.

  • 0.9 % NaClDrug

    Also called Normal Saline

    During 12 hours before the procedure 3 ml/kg/h 0.9 % NaCl infusion and 1 ml/kg/h during the angioplasty and 12 hours after the procedure.

  • 0.9 % NaClDrug

    Also called Normal Saline

    100 ml/10min infusion just before the angiography

    1 ml/kg/h infusion during the angiography and was continued 12 hours after the procedure

What is being measured

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

  1. Changes in glomerular renal function after percutaneous coronary angiography as measured by neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin, cystatin c, blood urea nitrogen, creatinin

    Measured: 1 day (from start of angioplasty till discharge from the hospital)

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. blood pressure

    Measured: 1 day (from start of angiography till discharge from the hospital)

  2. Heart rate

    Measured: 1 day (from start of angiography till discharge from the hospital)

  3. Blood electrolyte levels ( sodium, potassium, chloride)

    Measured: before the angiography and just before the discharge from hospital

  4. complete blood count

    Measured: before the angiography and just before the discharge from hospital

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Dexmedetomidine and 0.9 % NaCl in people with Radiographic Contrast Agent Nephropathy, run by TC Erciyes University.

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 4 inclusion and 4 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 14 May 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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.

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.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Changes in glomerular renal function after percutaneous coronary angiography as measured by neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin, cystatin c, blood urea nitrogen, creatinin (time frame: 1 day (from start of angioplasty till discharge from the hospital)). 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 14 May 2014.
