AKI post-TAVR linked to eGFR decline at 6 months, contrasting improvement in non-AKI CKD patients; hypothesis-generating for renal effects of TAVR.
How does transcatheter aortic valve replacement affect estimated glomerular filtration rate over 6 months in adult patients with aortic stenosis?
TAVR may improve renal function at 6 months in patients with baseline chronic kidney disease, provided they do not develop acute kidney injury post-procedure.
Thongprayoon et al. (2017) studied this question.
