Contrast induced nephropathy

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Occurrence of contrast-induced nephropathy

    Contrast-induced nephropathy is defined as an elevation of serum creatinine of more than 25% or ≥0.5 mg/dl (44 μmol/l) from baseline within 48 hours after contrast exposure

    Within 48 hours after contrast exposure

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Major in-hospital clinical events, including death and need for dialysis or hemofiltration

    participants will be followed for the duration of hospital stay, an expected average of 10 days

Study Arms (2)

Folic acid

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Oral folic acid (5 mg, tid) were given at least two days before CTA/angiography/angioplasty and continued for two days after.

Drug: Folic acid

Placebo

PLACEBO COMPARATOR

Oral placebo (1 tablet, tid) were given at least two days before CTA/angiography/angioplasty and continued for two days after.

Drug: Placebo
