Authors' conclusion

In CKD patients undergoing CAG, SH is noninferior to standard hydration in preventing CA-AKI with a shorter hydration duration.

Study context

Population
Patients with CKD undergoing coronary angiography
Participants
1,002 patients
Comparison
Simplified rapid hydration vs standard hydration
Primary endpoint
Contrast-associated acute kidney injury (CA-AKI): ≥25% or 0.5-mg/dL rise in serum creatinine from baseline
Follow-up
Within 48 to 72 hours

Primary result

CA-AKI

Relative risk

0.8

95% CI 0.5–1.2

P = 0.216

Events by treatment group

SH vs Control
RR 0.8 (95% CI 0.5–1.2); P = 0.216
