NCT ID NCT07294911

First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This completed study of 88 heart attack patients looked at why some develop kidney injury after receiving contrast dye during a procedure to open blocked arteries. Researchers analyzed medical records to find which factors—like age, lab results, or procedure details—were linked to kidney damage. The goal is to help doctors better predict and prevent this complication in the future.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

What this could lead to
If successful, this could help doctors identify which heart patients are at highest risk for kidney injury after contrast dye, leading to better prevention strategies.
What could go wrong
This is an observational study, not a treatment trial. It only looks at existing data to find patterns, so it cannot prove cause and effect or directly improve patient outcomes.
