18 Years - 65 Years (Adult, Older Adult)All SexesDoes not accept healthy volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Patients aged between 18 and 70 years.

  • Active infection.
  • Any contraindication to carvedilol, or atorvastatin.
  • Patients on regular use of vitamins, minerals.
  • Using medication with antioxidant properties e.g., beta-carotene, vitamin E, vitamin C, selenium, theophylline or N-acetyl cysteine 7 days prior to CC.

    5. Study Description

    Brief Summary
    This prospective study is intended to evaluate if carvedilol has any potential protective effect over atorvastatin on the development of contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) following cardiac catheterization in patients with moderate to high risk for CIN.
    Detailed Description
    This study enrolled 150 patients planned for CC, and randomly assigned for one of the three groups. Group (A)include 49 patients who received two atorvastatin dose 80 mg 12 hours before CC and 40 mg just before CC. Group (B) include 48 patients who received 12.5 mg carvedilol twice daily for 7 days before CC and continue for 24hrs after the day of CC, Group (C) include 47 patients who only hydrated with saline. All included patients were hydrated with saline intravenous 0.9 sodium chloride (NaCl) at 0.5-1 mg/kg/hour for 4-6 hours before and 4-6 hours after cardiac catheterization. Serum creatinine(Scr), blood urea nitrogen (BUN) and estimated glomerular filtration rate were evaluated at the baseline and after 48 from CC. Serum neutrophil-associated lipocalin (NGAL) was evaluated after 4 hours from CC.
