Ultra-low CONtraSt PCI vs conVEntional PCI in patients of ACS with increased risk of CI-AKI (CONSaVE-AKI).

ABSTRACT:

Objectives

This prospective, randomized study assessed short-term outcomes and safety of ultra-low contrast percutaneous coronary intervention(ULC-PCI) vs conventional PCI in high risk for contrast induced acute kidney injury(CI-AKI) patients presenting with acute coronary syndrome(ACS).

Background

Patients at an increased risk of developing CI-AKI can be identified prior to PCI based on their pre-procedural risk scores. ULC-PCI is a novel contrast conservation strategy in such high risk patients for prevention of CI-AKI.

Methods

82 patients undergoing PCI for ACS were enrolled having estimated glomerular filtration rate(eGFR) < 60 ml/min/1.73 m² and moderate to very high pre-procedural risk of developing CI-AKI as calculated by Maioli risk calculator. They
