Ameliorating Contrast Induced Nephropathy After Coronary Angiography

July 10, 2024 updated by: Sarah Sabry Hashem, Ain Shams University

Assessment of the Effect of Atorvastatin and N-acetyl Cysteine on Prevention of Contrast Induced Nephropathy in Patients Undergoing Coronary Angiography CIN

Given the limited understanding of the impact of statin and N-acetyl cysteine use before angiography in preventing contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN), the objective of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of atorvastatin in preventing CIN among patients undergoing coronary angiography.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

A multi armed randomized controlled clinical trial to be conducted from June 2023.According to inclusion and exclusion criteria, All patients presenting to the Cardiology department at Ain Shams University hospitals, will be assessed for eligibility. At least 120 patients subjected to elective CT coronary angiography who are at risk of developing contrast-induced renal failure will be enrolled. The participants will be assigned to Three groups (40 patients for each group):

  • Three groups
  • High-dose Atorvastatin group: 40 patients will receive 80 mg Atorvastatin before coronary angiography and will receive adequate hydration using (1ml/kg/hr)
  • N-acetyl cysteine group: 40 patients will receive 200mg 3 times daily 2 days before coronary angiography and 2 days after and will receive adequate hydration using (1ml/kg/hr)
  • Control group: 40 patients will receive adequate hydration using (1ml/kg/hr) The blood sample will be collected from all patients before the administration of contrast media and after 24 hours for assessment of the needed parameters.
