Two-Point Measurement of Glomerular Filtration Rate by Iohexol Plasma Disappearance
In Brief
An observational study evaluating Iohexol for Renal Disease and Renal Insufficiency. Completed, enrolled 54 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
The purpose of this study is to measure glomerular filtration rate (GFR) by iohexol plasma disappearance (gold standard) and measure serum Cystatin C levels (surrogate marker) in patients enrolled in our prospective study at baseline, day 100 and 1 year after hematopoietic cell transplant and determine if these levels correlate with serum creatinine and an estimated GFR using the Modification of Diet in Renal Disease (MDRD) equation and Schwartz formula in children.

Timeline
Interventions
Iohexol, a non-ionic, low osmolar, X-ray contrast medium (OmnipaqueR) that is safe and non-toxic and used for angiographic and urographic procedures, is eliminated from plasma exclusively by glomerular filtration \[13\]. Study subject will receive 5 ml of iohexol solution (Omnipaque 300, corresponding to 647 mg iohexol per ml or 300 mg iodine per ml) through peripheral IV or central Line infusion over 1-2 minutes followed by 10 ml of saline solution at baseline, day 100 and 1 year after HCT.
