Protocol summary

Summary
This single-blind prospective study aims to determine the efficacy of pentoxifylline in preventing contrast-induced nephropathy in patients with myocardial infarction undergoing coronary angioplasty. A total of 182 adult patients (age > 18 years) with ST elevation myocardial infarction (STMI) referred to the Department of Cardiology, Imam Reza Hospital (Mashhad, Iran) for emergency angioplasty will be recruited. The exclusion criteria will be serum creatinine more than 1.5 mg/dl, heart failure, history of end-stage renal failure or being on dialysis, use of N-acetyl cysteine, theophylline, aminoglycosides, and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, intravenous contrast media administration within the past two days, pulmonary edema, multiple myeloma, and uncontrolled hypertension. The patients will be randomly assigned to the case and control groups (n = 91 each) using block randomization. The control group will receive routine treatment (normal saline 1-1.5 cc/kg from 6 hours before to six hours after angioplasty) without pentoxifylline (PTX). The case group will receive routine treatment plus PTX (400 mg/tid from 24 h before to 24 h after coronary angioplasty). Serum creatinine will be measured before and 2 days after the procedure. Two groups will be compared according to the occurrence of contrast-induced nephropathy within 48 hours after the procedure.
