About this trial
The primary objective of the trial is to evaluate if an iodinated contrast medium sparing strategy using automated Carbon Dioxide (CO2) Injection prevents Major Adverse Kidney Events up to 90 days (MAKE90) in patients at moderately elevated risk for contrast-associated acute kidney injury (CA-AKI) undergoing infrainguinal peripheral vascular interventions (PVI).
Eligibility criteria
Qualifiers
Symptomatic peripheral arterial disease presenting with either acute symptoms (Rutherford clinical categories I-IIb) or chronic symptoms (Fontaine stages IIb-IV or Rutherford clinical categories 2-6)
Planned peripheral vascular intervention of infrainguinal arteries due to femoropopliteal and/or infrapopliteal lesions
Increased risk of CA-AKI identified by a baseline risk score of ≥ 5 points based on a published dedicated PVI risk score and a pre-angiographic estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) < 60 ml/min/1.73 m²
Both angiographic strategies seem feasible at the investigator's discretion
Disqualifiers
Very agitated patients
Patients with planned full anaesthesia during procedure
Patients with a life-expectancy less than one year
Patients confined to bed that are completely non-ambulatory
