About this study

Official title: Predictors of Contrast-Induced Acute Kidney Injury in Patients With Acute Coronary Syndrome

This observational study aims to identify predictors of contrast-induced acute kidney injury (CI-AKI) in patients with acute coronary syndrome undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention. Clinical, laboratory, and procedural factors will be analyzed to determine their association with the development of CI-AKI. The findings may help improve risk stratification and preventive strategies in this high-risk population.

Read the detailed description

This prospective observational study investigates predictors of contrast-induced acute kidney injury (CI-AKI) among patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). The study was conducted from November 2024 to June 2025 at a tertiary cardiac center.

Patients with ACS who underwent coronary angiography or PCI were enrolled consecutively. Clinical characteristics, laboratory parameters, hydration status, use of nephrotoxic drugs, and type and volume of contrast media were recorded. Serum creatinine levels were measured before and 48-72 hours after contrast exposure, and CI-AKI was defined according to KDIGO criteria.

The primary objective is to identify independent predictors of CI-AKI using multivariate analysis. Secondary objectives include evaluation of short-term outcomes, such as in-hospital complications and renal function recovery at 90 days. The results are expected to improve understanding of CI-AKI risk in real-world ACS patients and to support preventive strategies in interventional cardiology.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Change in serum creatinine at 90 days

    Change in serum creatinine level compared to baseline at 90-day follow-up after contrast exposure, to evaluate renal function recovery or persistent impairment.

    Measured: 90 days after contrast exposure

  2. Incidence of Contrast-Induced Acute Kidney Injury (CI-AKI)

    Occurrence of contrast-induced acute kidney injury (CI-AKI) defined as an increase in serum creatinine of ≥0.3 mg/dL (≥26.5 µmol/L) or ≥50% from baseline within 48-72 hours after exposure to iodinated contrast media, according to KDIGO criteria.

    Measured: Within 72 hours after contrast exposure

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Changes in plasma TIMP-2 concentration

    Assessment of urinary TIMP-2 levels 2 hours after contrast exposure to detect early markers of renal tubular injury

    Measured: 2 hours after contrast exposure

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Change in serum creatinine at 90 days (time frame: 90 days after contrast exposure). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT07294911, which also lists 11 linked publications.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 19 Dec 2025.
