Abstract
Background
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a major risk factor for contrast induced acute kidney injury (CI-AKI) in chronic coronary syndrome (CCS) patients undergoing coronary catheterization. We aimed to evaluate the efficacy of phentolamine in prevention of CI-AKI in CKD and CCS patients undergoing percutaneous coronary catheterization for diagnostic angiography ± stenting.
Methods
Participants with CKD and CCS planned for percutaneous coronary catheterization were included, while participants with normal kidney functions were excluded. A consecutive sample of 107 participants (mean age 58.62 ± 8.96 years, 64.5% males) was selected, underwent diagnostic coronary angiography or percutaneous coronary intervention, and received either conventional CI-AKI prevention strategy (group 1) or periprocedural phentolamine and conventional CI-AKI prevention strategy (group 2).
Results
The percentages of study participants who had CI-AKI were 82.9% for group 1 and 17.1% for group 2, respectively. The incidence rate of CI-AKI was significantly lower in group 2 versus group 1 (p < 0.001). The urine output (ml/kg) and the urine output (ml/hour) within 72 hours post procedure was significantly higher in group 2 versus group 1 (t(105) = − 0.69, p < 0.001, t(105) = − 52.46, p < 0.001, respectively), the peak change in serum creatinine and the percentage of change relative to the baseline serum creatinine at 72 hours post procedure was significantly lower in group 2 versus group 1 (t(102) = 0.2, p 0.018, t(102) = 23.54, p < 0.001, respectively), and the incidence rate of major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events within 90 days post procedure was significantly lower in group 2 versus group 1 (t(102) = 1.168, P < 0.001), respectively. There was a statistically significant association of periprocedural phentolamine infusion with prevention of CI-AKI (OR = 0.041, 95% CI 0.0149–0.1128, P < 0.0001).
Conclusion
Our study highlights the potential role of phentolamine for protection of the kidney in CKD patients planned for coronary catheterization.
