Not Applicable
Withdrawn
Conditions
Contrast-induced Nephropathy
Interventions
Procedure: Ischemic preconditioning
Drug: Endovenous normal saline
Registration Number
NCT03136458
Lead Sponsor
Camilo Andrés Páez Angarita
Brief Summary

This study evaluates remote ischemic preconditioning as an strategy to avoid contrast induced nephropathy. All of the patients will receive endovenous normal saline to prevent nephropathy, half of the patients will receive remote ischemic preconditioning while the other half will not.

Detailed Description

This study evaluates remote ischemic preconditioning as an strategy to avoid contrast induced nephropathy, this preconditioning is administered through repeated insufflation of an arterial pressure cuff in one of the patient arms, which in theory liberates vasoactive mediators that prevents the ischemic damage to the kidneys secondary to contrast media. All of the patients will receive endovenous normal saline to prevent nephropathy, which is a common strategy in our institution. Half of the patients will receive remote ischemic preconditioning while the other half will only receive a dummy preconditioning intended to keep the double blind strategy of the trial.

The main endpoint will be to ascertain the incidence of contrast induced nephropathy in both arms of the study, as a way to evaluate the efficacy of this strategy.

Real ischemic preconditioningIschemic preconditioningInsufflation of an arterial pressure cuff located in one upper extremity, during 4 cycles, each with a duration of 5 minutes insufflation and 5 minutes of disinflation. The cuff will be insufflated to reach 50 mmHg above the systolic arterial pressure of the patient.

The cuff will be insufflated to reach 10 mmHg above the diastolic arterial pressure of the patient.
