A Randomized Trial of Rosuvastatin in Elective Angioplasty to Prevent Contrast-induced Nephropathy (CLEAR-CIN).

Phase 4
Completed
Conditions
Nephropathy
Interventions
Registration Number
NCT02737319
Lead Sponsor
University of Sao Paulo
Brief Summary

The investigators analyzed the HMG-CoA reductase inhibitor, rosuvastatin, for the prevention of contrast-medium-induced nephropathy in patients undergoing primary angioplasty.

Detailed Description

Patients with stable coronary artery disease already taking chronic statin undergoing elective angioplasty are at risk for contrast-medium-induced nephropathy because there are specified risk factors as age more than 75 years, chronic renal insufficiency, diabetes, use of contrast and the lack of effective prophylaxis.
