SGLT2-inhibitors on PC-AKI

September 3, 2025 updated by: Han Yaling, Shenyang Northern Hospital

Impact of SGLT2-inhibitors on Post Contrast Acute Kidney Injury in Acute Coronary Syndrome Patients Receiving Invasive Strategy

Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is one of the most common invasive strategies employed in the diagnosis and treatment of coronary artery disease (CAD) patients. Invasive procedures necessitate the use of iodine-based contrast agents, which could lead to post contrast acute kidney injury (PC-AKI).

Sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT-2) inhibitors, as a class of oral antidiabetic medications, function by inhibiting SGLT-2, preventing the reabsorption of filtered glucose by the kidneys and thereby increasing glucose excretion in urine. In recent years, a series of studies including EMPA-REG OUTCOME, CREDENCE, DAPA-CKD, DECLARE-TIMI 58, and the CANVAS program have consistently demonstrated that SGLT-2 inhibitors not only effectively improve renal function and slow the progression of chronic kidney disease (CKD), but also significantly reduce the risk of cardiovascular adverse events. Nevertheless, due to their osmotic diuretic effect, SGLT-2 inhibitors can lead to a reduction in renal blood volume within the early phase of application (within two weeks), temporarily augmenting the renal workload and resulting in a decrease in estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR).

Consequently, there remains a need to ascertain the specific role of SGLT-2 inhibitors in the prevention of PC-AKI and provide evidence-based support for their application in this context.
