Post-TAVI AKI was associated with higher mortality; hypothesis-generating for prevention trials before practice change.
Does the development of acute kidney injury after transcatheter aortic valve implantation increase 30-day and long-term mortality in high-risk patients with aortic stenosis?
Post-procedural acute kidney injury is a frequent complication (20%) after TAVI and is associated with significantly increased 30-day and long-term mortality.
Gebauer et al. (2012) studied this question.
