Predictors of embolization during protected renal artery angioplasty and stenting: Role of antiplatelet therapy.

    The objective of this study was to identify the predictors of distal embolization (DE) during protected renal artery angioplasty and stenting.. DE may contribute to worsening renal function after renal artery stenting. The factors associated with DE, rates of platelet-rich emboli, and treatments that may prevent DE during renal stenting have not been evaluated.. The current study evaluated patients randomized to receive an embolic protection device (EPD) in the RESIST trial. Forty-two patients were identified for inclusion in this study. These patients were further randomized to abciximab (N = 22) or placebo (N = 20). Modification in Diet in Renal Disease glomerular filtration rate (GFR) was used as the primary measure of renal function. Creatinine was measured by a modified Jaffe reaction using the IDMS-traceable assay. The primary endpoint was capture of platelet rich emboli in the angioguard basket.. DE occurred in 15/42 (35%) of the patients and platelet rich DE in 10 (24%) of the patients who received an EPD. Of the angiographic characteristics only lesion length was significantly higher in patients with DE (16 +/- 7 mm vs. 10 +/- 5 mm, P = 0.04). Preprocedural abciximab reduced DE from 42 to 8% (P = 0.02). The rate of platelet rich emboli was 50% with neither abciximab nor a thienopyridine, 36% with thienopyridine only, 15% abciximab only, and 0% in patients who received both a thienopyridine and abciximab. Only Abciximab use was associated with improved renal function at 1-month, thienopyridine was not. Angiographic characteristics including percent stenosis, minimal luminal diameter (MLD), reference diameter, change in MLD, contrast volume, and procedure time were not predictors of DE during renal stenting.. Capture of DE and specifically platelet DE are common during protected renal stenting using a filter-type EPD. Abciximab use, and potentially combined thienopyridine and abciximab use, decreased the rate of platelet rich DE; however, only abciximab improved renal function at 1-month.
