COOL RCNA Prospective, Randomized Trial Examining the Safety and Efficacy of Systemic Hypothermia for the Prevention of Radiocontrast Nephropathy Gregg W. Stone, MD Columbia University Medical Center The Cardiovascular Research Foundation
Background Contrast induced renal insufficiency after invasive cardiology procedures has been strongly associated with early and late mortality Preclinical and pilot studies have suggested that systemic hypothermia can ameliorate or prevent radiocontrast nephropathy (RCN) We therefore performed a prospective, randomized trial to determine the utility of systemic hypothermia in pts receiving iodinated contrast

The COOL RCN Pilot 30 pts (median age 71, 50% diabetes) with estimated CrCl 20 – 50 mL/min (mean 35.2 ± 8.9) were hydrated and cooled to 33 – 34ºC >90 mins prior to and for 3 hrs after contrast Mean 150 ± 65 [range 49-320] mL contrast used during angiography (60%) or PCI (40%) SCr measured at 24, 48 and 72 - 96 hrs RCN (SCr ↑>25% from baseline) developed in 3 pts (10%), vs. 40% predicted Stone GW.

Cooling Procedures • Cooling must be achieved before 1st contrast • Target core temp 33ºC; no contrast before 34ºC • Shivering suppression protocol (45-60’ pre cool): • Buspirone 60 mg po • Meperidine 50 mg slow IV bolus; 15’ later 25-50 mg slow IV bolus; 15’ later start 25-35 mg/hr IV infusion • Surface forced air warming blanket (at high) • Rewarming initiated 3 hours post procedure towards a target of 36ºC at a rate of 1°C/hr
Study procedures • IV Hydration • 2-12 hrs pre cath: NS 1.5 cc/kg/hr (1.0 cc/kg/hr of ½ NS for pts with CHF or LV dysfunction) • 1 hr pre cath: Stop NS, start NaHCO3 (150 mEq in 1 L D5W): bolus of 0.45mEq/kg (3mL/kg/hr) for the first hour, then 0.15 mEq/kg/hr (1 mL/kg/hr) during the cath and for 5-7 hrs post procedure • N-acetylcysteine was allowed per PI discretion • Low osmolar contrast only; iodixanol preferred
Power Analysis • Primary efficacy endpoint • RCN, defined as a relative SCr ↑ >25% from baseline anytime within 96 hrs) • Assumed RCN rates: 35% control, 21% Rx (40% treatment effect) • Randomizing 358 pts provided 80% power (α=0.05) → 400 pts randomized to allow 10% lost to FU, inadequate samples or study procedures

Limitations The observed rate of RCN in the control arm (18.6%) was lower than anticipated (35%) This fact, coupled with the enrollment of only 136 of a planned 400 pts (34%), resulted in a wide point estimate for the treatment effect of systemic hypothermia (odds 47% better to 200% worse)
COOL RCNConclusions In pts at high risk for RCN undergoing invasive cardiology procedures hydrated with NS + NaHCO3, systemic hypothermia using the Reprieve® system: May be safely achieved and is well tolerated Does not result in a significant reduction in RCN
