Common heart procedure poses kidney risk: can a diabetes pill be the shield?

NCT ID NCT06491953

Summary

This study is testing if a type of diabetes medication, called SGLT2 inhibitors, can prevent kidney damage in heart patients. The kidney damage can sometimes happen after patients receive a special dye during common heart procedures like angioplasty. Researchers will enroll 3600 patients with acute coronary syndrome to see if taking this medication reduces the risk of this specific kidney injury.
