Periprocedural AKI after TAVI was associated with higher long-term mortality; extends short-term data but leaves open whether prevention improves survival.
Does periprocedural acute kidney injury increase the risk of long-term mortality in patients undergoing TAVI for severe aortic stenosis?
Periprocedural acute kidney injury following TAVI is associated with significantly increased short-term and long-term (up to 7 years) mortality, highlighting the need for preventive strategies.
