Acute kidney injury is a frequent complication and significantly impacts on both early and long-term TAVI survival. Females, subjects with impaired renal function at baseline, patients undergoing TAVI under general anaesthesia, and patients receiving ≥3 RBC units after the procedure should be considered populations at high risk for the development of AKI after TAVI.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
