Non-steroidal Anti-inflammatory Drugs (NSAIDs) and Risk of Acute Kidney Injury in Patients With Heart Failure

Conditions
Heart Failure
Registration Number
NCT02642081
Lead Sponsor
National Taiwan University Hospital
Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) were associated with acute kidney injury (AKI) in patients with heart failure. In addition, the investigators would like to assess the risk of admission for acute decompensated heart failure following exposure to NSAIDs within 30 days.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Change from baseline in serum creatinine at 1 monthBaseline and 1 month

We collect not only patient's baseline serum creatinine level (defined as the median value of the previous-six-months serum creatinine), but also serum creatinine level on the detecting day (defined as the most recent day from index date we detecting the serum creatinine). Acute kidney injury is defined as the absolute increase in the serum creatinine concentration of ≥0.3 mg/dL from baseline; or a percentage increase in the serum creatinine concentration of ≥50 percent.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Admission for acute decompensated heart failure1 month after exposure to NSAIDs
