Contrast dye Double-Dose: new study tracks kidney fallout in ICU patients
NCT ID NCT07713524
First seen Jul 20, 2026 · Last updated Jul 22, 2026 · Updated 2 times
Summary
This study follows 112 critically ill patients with pre-existing kidney disease who receive one or two doses of contrast dye for imaging. Researchers track kidney function, including acute injury and long-term decline, over six months. The goal is to understand how repeated contrast exposure impacts kidney outcomes in this vulnerable group.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- iodinated contrast dye
- What this could lead to
- If it succeeds, this could help doctors better weigh the risks of using contrast dye in patients with weak kidneys, potentially preventing further kidney damage.
- What could go wrong
- This is an observational study, not a treatment trial, so it cannot prove cause and effect. Results may not apply to all ICU patients.
