dc.description.abstractBackground: Patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) are at a common risk for contrast-induced acute kidney damage (CI-AKI) because of various complications. Intravenous N-acetylcysteine (NAC) in high doses (1200mg) is considered more effective than its conventional dose (600mg) to prevent CIN and related complications. Objective: The study aimed to compare the effectiveness of high dose versus standard dose of intravenous N-acetylcysteine (NAC) in the prevention of Acute Kidney Injury in patients with chronic kidney disease.Material & Methods:A total of 60 (sixty) patients diagnosed with CKD went to coronary angiography and/or percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) were selected by simple random technique and categorized into two groups – Group A (30 patients) received high dose NAC (1200mg) and Group B (30 patients) – received standard dose NAC (600mg). For evaluation of renal damage serum creatinine level for at least >3 months, renal imaging revealed bilateral small echogenic kidneys, eGFR (<60 to 15ml/min/1.73m², measured by MDRD formula) and also by ACR >30 mg/gm, associated with IHD, admitted for percutaneous intervention (PCI) were taken in account. Statistical analysis was done by SPSS version 20 with taking 95% confidence interval. The quantitative data were expressed as mean and standard deviation and qualitative data were expressed as frequency distribution and unpaired t-test, Chi-square test, and Fisher exact analytic test were done.Results:The observed mean age group of the patients was 65 ± 8 years and 62 ± 7 years in group A and group B respectively with male predominance in both groups. Primary renal disease diabetic nephropathy (DN) more (36.66%) in group A than in group B (30.00%) but patients with Hypertensive nephropathy were the same (33.33%) in both groups. After interventions, S. Creatinine (mg/dl) level, e, GFR (ml/min/1.73m²), were statistically significant in cases of group A patients (P-value 0.001& 0.003 correspondingly) compared to group B Patients (P-value 0.075 & 0.001 respectively). Again, the mean of pre-intervention S. Creatinine was 1.7 ±0.5 in group A whereas this was 1.9 ± 0.8 (p-value, 0.599) in group B and after 48 hours of intervention this was 1.6 ± 0.5 and 2.0 ± 0.5 (p-value, 0.697) In group A and group B respectively. Overall, no patients were detected with nephropathy for high dose NAC whereas 27 (90%) out of 30 had developed CIN in standered dose.Conclusion:High-dose N-acetylcysteine (1200mg) is more potent and effective than the standard dose (600mg) in reducing contrast-induced acute kidney injury (CI-AKI) in patients with CKD.en_US
