Abstract

This study aims to investigate the effect of recombinant human brain natriuretic peptide (rhBNP) on renal function and contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) incidence in ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction and heart failure (STEMI-HF) patients with mild renal insufficiency undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). A total of 116 participants were randomized into rhBNP (rhBNP, n = 57) and nitroglycerin group (NIT, n = 59), receiving intravenous rhBNP or nitroglycerin from admission to 72 h after PCI. Renal function was assessed by serum creatinine (SCr), estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), Cystatin-C (Cys-C) and β2-microglobulin before and after primary PCI, and calculated the incidence of CIN within 72 h after PCI. There were no significant differences in SCr, eGFR and β2-microglobulin between the two groups (P > 0.05, respectively). Compared with the NIT group, the total urinary volume within 72 h was higher while the level of Cys-C at 24 and 72 h after PCI was lower in the rhBNP group. rhBNP was associated with a decline in the incidence of CIN (12.28 vs. 28.81 %, P < 0.05). No differences were detected in mortality and re-hospitalization in 3 months between the two groups. The incidence of renal injury was not different between rhBNP and nitroglycerin in STEMI-HF patients with mild renal insufficiency. However, infusion of rhBNP was associated with a decline in incidence of CIN.
