About this study

Patients with stable coronary artery disease already taking chronic statin undergoing elective angioplasty are at risk for contrast-medium-induced nephropathy because there are specified risk factors as age more than 75 years, chronic renal insufficiency, diabetes, use of contrast and the lack of effective prophylaxis.

Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: Yes

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria
