SWL: Are There Protective Effects of Antioxidants, Calcium Channel Blocker and Angiotensin Receptor Blocker Against Extracorporeal Shockwaves Lithotripsy Induced Renal Injury?
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 |
---|---|---|
|
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
- 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
- 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
