Assessment of the Effect of Atorvastatin on Prevention of CIN in Patients Undergoing Coronary Angiography (CIN)

April 10, 2014 updated by: peyman bidram, Isfahan University of Medical Sciences

Atorvastatin and Prevention of Contrast Induced Nephropathy Following Coronary Angiography

As the effect of statin use before the angiography to prevent contrast induced nephropathy (CIN) is not well-known, the aim of the current study is to assess the effect of atorvastatin on prevention of CIN in patients undergoing coronary angiography.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame

Time Frame: 48 hours after the procedure
CIN is determined as an increase in post-procedural serum creatinine of > 0.5 mg/dl or > 25% from baseline in the absence of any other causes
48 hours after the procedure

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Time Frame
serum creatinine (Cr) level
Time Frame: 48 hours after the procedure
48 hours after the procedure
