New treatment option for Non ST Segment Elevation Acute Coronary Syndrome
Official title Supplementation With Beetroot Juice to Prevent Contrast Associated Nephropathy During Hospitalization for Acute Coronary Syndrome Without ST Elevation
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT06695429
What this study is testing
- What it's testing
- The goal of this study is to compare the possible beneficial effect of beetroot juice supplementation versus the usual management during hospitalization to prevent contrast-induced nephropathy after cardiac catheterizations. The study includes patients diagnosed with non-ST elevation acute coronary syndrome with a possible indication for catheterism and high risk of kidney injury related to iodinated contrast.
