Is this trial a fit for you?

Likely a good fit

Ideal candidates for this study are inpatients and outpatients aged 18 years and older who have undergone a single intravenous contrast procedure.

Probably not a fit

Patients under 18 years, those with end-stage renal disease, or those with severe cardiac failure are unlikely to benefit from this study.

What this trial studies

This observational study investigates the occurrence of contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) following intravenous contrast procedures at Sohag University Hospitals. CIN is a significant complication that can lead to acute renal injury, particularly in patients with certain risk factors such as diabetes or pre-existing renal insufficiency. The study aims to assess the incidence of CIN in both inpatients and outpatients aged 18 and older who have undergone these procedures. By analyzing the rise in serum creatinine levels post-contrast exposure, the study seeks to better understand the risk factors associated with CIN.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this study could help identify at-risk patients and improve strategies to prevent contrast-induced nephropathy.

How similar studies have gone: Other studies have shown varying success in understanding and preventing contrast-induced nephropathy, making this approach relevant but not entirely novel.
