Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Change in incidence of Contrast Induced Nephropathy (CIN)
CIN is defined as an increase in serum creatinine by 0.5mg/dl or a relative rise of 25% from the baseline value. The investigators will measure the incidence of CIN by the increase in serum creatinine to see if the incidence will be the same in both arms whether the patient received the immediate angiography or if it was delayed until kidney function has been stabilized.
Within 7 days
Secondary Outcomes (2)
Incidence of earlier occurrence of CIN
Within 7 days
Incidence of renal replacement therapy at up to 7 days post-angiography
Within 7 days
Study Arms (2)
Immediate intervention arm
ACTIVE COMPARATORImmediate angiography will be performed within 24 hours of enrollment. Omnipaque contrast will be administered. Serum creatinine will be collected on enrollment, within 6 hours before coronary angiography, and at 24h, 48h and 1-week after the angiography, as expected in common practice. Pre- and post-hydration administration will be at the discretion of the treating physician. In case percutaneous coronary intervention is indicated it will be schedule for 7 days after angiography.
Delayed intervention arm
PLACEBO COMPARATORDelayed angiography will be performed after kidney function stabilizes.
Interventions
Coronary angiography with less than 20cc of contrast materials
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Hospitalized patients who have AKI at admission or who develop AKI during admission and require invasive coronary angiography will be included in the trial.
You may not qualify if:
- Stabilized renal function manifested by unchanged or downtrending serum creatinine during a 24-hour period prior to enrollment.
- Contraindication for invasive coronary angiography other than AKI.
- Percutaneous coronary intervention is indicated and cannot be postponed by 7 days.
- Need for renal replacement therapy before coronary angiography or planned renal replacement therapy after coronary angiography (if premeditated before coronary angiography).
- Administration of intravascular contrast media during 7 days prior to the coronary angiography or within 6 days after coronary angiography.
- Pregnant patients, prisoners, cognitively impaired subjects, age below 18 years, unable or unwilling to provide informed consent.
