Nicorandil Study to Reduce Cardiac Death After Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI) in Hemodialysis Patients

February 19, 2009 updated by: Toujinkai Hospital

Oral Nicorandil to Reduce Cardiac Death After Coronary Revascularization in Hemodialysis Patients: A Randomized Trial

Survival after invasive coronary revascularization is worse in patients with chronic kidney disease than in those without it. The investigators aimed to examine whether oral administration of nicorandil, a hybrid of nitrate and adenosine triphosphate-sensitive potassium channel opener, could improve the survival of end-stage renal disease patients with coronary artery disease by inhibiting cardiac death after coronary revascularization.
