About this trial

This pilot study is designed to test the logistics and recruitment of a trial testing the benefit of sodium nitrate in the prevention of contrast-associated kidney injury in a group of patients at high-risk.

Eligibility criteria

Qualifiers

Planned coronary angiogram or contrast-enhanced CT scan.

Undergoing coronary angiogram with GFR <45 mL/min/1.73m2 OR

Undergoing coronary angiogram with GFR <60 mL/min/1.73m2 and concurrent risk of AKI as defined by Hamilton et al. BMC2 risk prediction model ≥ 7%.

Undergoing contrast-enhanced CT scan with GFR<45 mL/min/1.73m2

Disqualifiers

Already fulfilling definition of acute kidney injury prior to contrast exposure by kidney disease improving global outcomes (KDIGO) criteria (absolute increase in creatinine from baseline of 0.3mg/dL or more OR relative increase in creatine of 50% or more from baseline).

Primary indication for Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI) including acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction

End-stage renal disease actively on dialysis.

Received any intravenous or intraarterial contrast within five days from planned contrast administration.
