Comparing Sodium Bicarbonate Plus Isotonic Normal Saline Versus Isotonic Normal Saline Alone to Prevent Contrast-Induced Nephropathy in Patients Undergoing Coronary Angiography: A Randomized Controlled Trial
Radio Contrast Induced Nephropathy (RCIN) remains a well recognized complication in patients undergoing diagnostic or interventional procedures requiring radiographic contrast agents. Recent studies have shown benefit in administering Sodium Bicarbonate over normal saline( the uniformly accepted prophylaxy) in preventing RCIN.Therefore the aim of the study is to evaluate the efficacy of sodium bicarbonate solved in normal saline compared with infusion of normal saline in prevention of RCIN.
