Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

This study will be conducted to evaluate the protective effects and mechanisms of antioxidants (vitamins A, C, E and Selenium), calcium channel blocker (Verapamil) and angiotensin receptor blocker (Lozartan) against shock wave induced renal injuries.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Drug: Antioxidant group
  • Drug: Calcium Channel Blockers
  • Drug: Angiotensin receptor blocker group
  • Drug: Placebo
Phase 4

Detailed Description

The protective effect will be evaluated via estimation of the changes in renal tubular enzyme (NGAL) and detection of albumen levels in urine. The mechanisms of protection will be investigated by estimation of renal perfusion and functional changes using dynamic MRI.

  • Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. Renal damage [two hours and one week after Extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy (ESWL)]

      The protective effect will be evaluated via estimation of the changes in renal tubular enzyme (NGAL) and detection of albumen levels in urine.

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    1. The mechanisms of renal protection [Before ESWL, 2 hours and 1 week after ESWL]

      The mechanisms of protection will be investigated by estimation of renal perfusion and functional changes using dynamic MRI
