Detailed Description
Contrast medium-induced nephropathy (CIN) is a recognized complication in coronary diagnostic and interventional procedures, and is associated with prolonged hospitalization and adverse clinical outcomes. The frequency of CIN ranges from 2% in low-risk patients to 50% in high-risk patients. The most important risk factors for CIN development are pre-existing renal failure, diabetes, age, volume and type of contrast medium. There are two main pathogenetic mechanisms postulated to cause CIN:
- a direct toxic action of contrast medium on kidney tubule cells, causing a disruption of mitochondrial function, the generation of reactive oxygen species, and subsequent cell injury and apoptosis;
- vasoconstriction, reducing the blood flow through the renal medulla and causing ischemia with cell damage The treatment of CIN is exclusively supportive. Treatment is particularly recommended in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD - mild, moderate or severe, according to estimated glomerular filtration rate - eGFR). Several approaches have been tested in the prevention of CIN with variable success. Adequate hydration is widely accepted as the best method for prevention of CIN, and is today the only strategy generally accepted by international guidelines (class of recommendation I, level of evidence A). The use of N-acetyl cysteine, recommended even in the recent past, is not supported by a recent randomized trial14 and a meta-analysis. Hemodialysis and hemofiltration may be effective in preventive CIN, but are reserved to high-risk patients. Attempts at preventing CIN with various medications, such as furosemide, vitamin C, statins and numerous other, have been largely unsuccessful. The efficacy of bicarbonate in the prevention of CIN has been extensively tested; the rationale is here that urine alkalinization suppresses the formation of free radicals. Actually, studies on bicarbonate have been controversial, varying from beneficial to toxic effects; this could bring into question the role of alkalinizing procedures in preventing CIN. Nevertheless, favorable results of prevention protocols using bicarbonate have been noted in studies also documenting a significant alkalinization of urines; while a similar protocol did not prove to be effective when the dose of bicarbonate was insufficient to such aim. Moreover, Markota et al., in a recent study on patients with estimated eGFR >15 mL/min/1.73 m2 and scheduled for coronary angiography, after documenting that Na/K citrate significantly reduced the incidence of CIN when compared with hydration alone, have shown that patients having a urine pH <6 had a more than ten-fold higher incidence of CIN compared with patients whose urine pH was >6.28 These results confirm the potential role of urine alkalinization in preventing CIN and place the oral administration of alkalinizing drugs as an attractive method compared to the more complex, and not always effective, i.v. infusion of bicarbonate. Finally, oral doses of bicarbonate may be sufficient to alkalinize the urine and thus to prevent CIN. In a study recently published, an oral dose of 4 g was sufficient to obtain, two hours after administration, an adequate urinary alkalinization with a pH >7 in all participants without side effects. This value was maintained and even magnified nearly 8 hours after the last dose. Interestingly, the Authors observed an additive effect after the second dose, showing a nondepleting urine pH, despite the reported short half-life of sodium bicarbonate.
Against this background, the investigators will here test the hypothesis that both oral and i.v. bicarbonate are adequate strategies for CIN prevention in patients after coronary angiography. Comparing the incidence of CIN according to urine pH achieved immediately before angiography, the investigators aim at demonstrating that urine alkalinization is the real goal, and that results are here largely independent from the strategy adopted to achieve it. The investigators will therefore compare the efficacy in alkalinizing urine and preventing CIN of three different strategies: hydration alone; hydration plus i.v. sodium bicarbonate; and hydration plus oral bicarbonate. Favorable results of the bicarbonate groups compared to the control group could increase the evidence supporting the use of alkalinizing strategies to prevent CIN; at the same time, non-inferiority results of the oral group compared to i.v. bicarbonate group could suggest the more practical oral administration as the preferred prevention strategy.

Active Comparator: isotonic saline
patients will start hydration with isotonic saline 6 hours before angiography and continue for 12 hours after the procedure.
The infusion rate will be 1 mL/kg/h in the first 5 hours they will receive isotonic saline at 1 mL/kg/h (reduced to 0.5 mL/kg/h if with ejection fraction <35% or New York Heart Association (NYHA) functional class III or IV).
Then, will be infused at 3 mL/kg/h for 1 hour immediately before contrast medium injection; following this, patients will receive the same fluid at a rate of 1 mL/kg/h

Active Comparator: i.v. sodium bicarbonate
in the first 5 hours patients will receive isotonic saline at 1 mL/kg/h (reduced to 0.5 mL/kg/h if with ejection fraction <35% or NYHA functional class III or IV).
Then, a solution of 1.4% sodium bicarbonate (167 mEq/L; 334 milliosmol (mOsm/L)) will be infused: the initial intravenous bolus will be 3 mL/kg/h for 1 hour immediately before contrast medium injection; following this, patients will receive the same fluid at a rate of 1 mL/kg/h (reduced to 0.5 mL/kg/h if with ejection fraction <35% or NYHA functional class III or IV) during the exposure to contrast and for 6 hours after the procedure.
Later, patients will resume hydration with isotonic saline for further 6 hours.

Experimental: oral sodium bicarbonate:
patients will start hydration with isotonic saline as well as Arm Hydration Alone. One hour before the angiography and 3 hours after patients will receive oral sodium bicarbonate at the dose of 4 g (47.6 mEq) dissolved in 60 mL of water. The drug will be weighed with a precision balance with a sensitivity of ± 0.1 mg and placed in a labeled sterile plastic container. The label will report the lot number, expiry date of the sodium bicarbonate lot, the signature of the pharmacist carrying out the weighing process, a serial number to identify the sample and the patient identification number. Documentation will be stored in the Laboratory of Galenic Preparations, Pharmacy Division, of the hospital. |
