Abstract
Preoperative chronic kidney disease does not increase the risk of mortality and acute kidney injury after transcatheter aortic valve implantation. Acute kidney injury after TAVI is associated with an elevated risk of mortality. The amount of contrast agent applied intra-procedurally does not affect the risk of acute kidney injury.
