Prevention of Contrast-induced Nephropathy in Patients with Chronic Kidney Disease Undergoing Elective Coronary Angioplasty or Angiography with Sodium Potassium Citrate Solution, a Double Blind Randomized Clinical Trial.

However, a probable preventive effect might exist in a subgroup of patients with at least 1.6 units increase in urine pH values following Na/K citrate administration.
