NCT00702728

Brief Summary

This study is being proposed with the objective to assess the potential benefits of induced diuresis by furosemide with matched hydration therapy compared to standard hydration in the prevention of contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN). It is expected that matched hydration will prove to be as effective as hydration alone, will avoid an overnight stay prior to the procedure, and thus will prove to be a less costly and more clinically manageable solution to the prevention of CIN.

Study Arms (2)

1

EXPERIMENTAL

Furosemide and matched saline hydration by RenalGuard system

Drug: Furosemide and matched saline hydration

2

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Standard IV saline infusion

Drug: isotonic saline solution

Interventions

Subjects will begin treatment approximately 90 minutes prior to the start of catheterization procedure. After a pre-hydration bolus of 250 ml of normal saline solution over 30 minutes the patient will receive 0.5 mg/kg of furosemide intravenously. Then, a replacement solution (saline) is given in an amount matched (ml for ml) to the volume of urine produced. Matched hydration will occur prior, during, and 4 hours post procedure.

1

Subjects will receive 1 ml/Kg/hr of intravenous saline solution for a minimum of 12 hours prior to catheterization. Hydration will continue to occur during the catheterization, and for a minimum of 12 hours post catheterization.
