Assessment of the Effect of Atorvastatin on Prevention of CIN in Patients Undergoing Coronary Angiography
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
As the effect of statin use before the angiography to prevent contrast induced nephropathy (CIN) is not well-known, the aim of the current study is to assess the effect of atorvastatin on prevention of CIN in patients undergoing coronary angiography.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Contrast induced nephropathy (CIN) incidence [48 hours after the procedure]
CIN is determined as an increase in post-procedural serum creatinine of > 0.5 mg/dl or > 25% from baseline in the absence of any other causes
Secondary Outcome Measures
- serum creatinine (Cr) level [48 hours after the procedure]
