Brief Summary: The purpose of this study is to determine whether N-acetylcysteine is effective in the prophylaxis of post-cardiopulmonary bypass acute renal impairment
Detailed Description: BACKGROUND Reactive oxygen species have been shown to cause contrast-induced nephrotoxicity CIN According to previous studies the N-acetylcysteine has been proved to be advantageous in the avoidance of CIN We seek to evaluate the efficacy of the antioxidant N-acetylcysteine in limiting the nephrotoxicity after cardiovascular surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass

METHODS We will prospectively study 60 patients who will receive a cardiovascular surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass Patients will be randomly assigned to receive either N-acetylcysteine 600 mg orally twice daily for 4 doses with 045 saline intravenously before and after cardiopulmonary bypass or placebo with 045 saline Serum creatinine and blood urea nitrogen will be measured before 48 h and 5 days after the operation procedure

Expected results Prophylactic oral administration of the antioxidant N-acetylcysteine along with hydration will significantly reduce the acute renal damage induced by CPB in patients with chronic renal insufficiency that need cardiovascular procedures
