Arms of the Study

Arm 1

Arm 2

Arm Type

Experimental

Active Comparator

Arm Label

RenalGuard Arm

Control Arm

Arm Description

In order to prevent patients from acute kidney injury, patients will receive the RenalGuard Therapy delivered by the RenalGuard system from one hour before the cardiovascular intervention to 4 hours after the intervention.

Patient will received standard treatment, as per ESC Guidelines 2014, to prevent from acute kidney injury.

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Occurence of contrast-induced nephropathy
The occurence of contrast-induced nephropathy will be determined: by an elevation, within 3 days from requiring contrast-procedure, of the serum creatinine (rise of 0.3mg/dl or of 25% compared to basal value) and/or by the need for dialysis within 5 fays from requiring contrast-procedure

Secondary Outcome Measures

Change in serum creatinin value
Change in the estimated glomerular filtration rate
Percentage of patients on chronic dialysis
Percentage of patients on temporary dialysis
In hospital significant urinary bleeding, infection or any other major complication cause by the urinary catheter
Composite of major adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events (death, myocardial infarction, stroke, revascularization)
Individual MACCEs components (death, myocardial infarction, stroke, revascularization)
Economic evaluation of RenalGuard compared to standard renal protection according to ESC guidelines
cost utility analysis

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
The Strength study aim to evaluate the use of the RenalGuard device to protect the patients at high risk to develop acute kidney injury following a complex cardiovascular intervention requiring a high volume of contrast.
Detailed Description
The Strength Trial is a randomized, international (France and Germany) and multicentre (7) trial. The patients population targeted is suffering from kidney insufficiency (estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate (eGFR) between 15 to 40 ml/min/m2) need to go through a complex cardiovascular intervention.. This is a population of patients at high risk to develop AKI following contrast media administration and complex cardiovascular interventions require a high amount of contrast. Standard treatment is hydration but with risk of hyper and hypohydration for this population of patients. RenalGuard insure the replacement of the urine output by infusion of a matched volume of sterile replacement solution to maintain patients' intravascular fluid volume. The patients are randomized to be protected from contrast-induced nephropathy with the use of RenalGuard or by standard hydration treatment and will be followed-up during 12 months.
