Prevention of Contrast Induced Nephropathy With Sodium Bicarbonate
Prevention of Contrast Induced Nephropathy With Sodium Bicarbonate
Deterioration of kidney renal function occurs in a minority of people due to contrast-required procedures. The purpose of this study is to compare two different interventions to reduce the risk of kidney injury after contrast medium exposition.
We will perform a randomized clinical trial following a modification of a previously published protocol (Merten et al.JAMA 2004;291(19):2328-34). Patients will be randomly assigned to one of two groups of treatment. Group A will receive 1 cc/kg/hour of 0.9% saline infusion starting 12 hours before and continuing 12 hours after the procedure. Group B will receive 3 cc/kg of sodium bicarbonate solution for one hour prior to procedure, then drip rate will be decreased to 1 cc/kg/hour until 6 hours post procedure.

Phase 2/3 study Study Type: Interventional Study Design: Prevention, Randomized, Open Label, Active Control, Parallel Assignment, Efficacy Study.
Subjects: Consecutive samples of all inpatients who meet the inclusion criteria
Primary outcomes: Development of contrast induced nephropathy, defined as an increase in serum creatinine of 25% or more within 48 h after administration of contrast.
Secondary outcomes: change in serum bicarbonate; change in serum potassium; change in serum creatinine.
Expected total enrollment: 212
Allocation Assignment: Patients who meet inclusion criteria and agree to participate in the study will be assigned by a random number table to saline or bicarbonate, using closed envelopes and stratifying according to history of diabetes and type of procedure (cardiac catheterism or others).
