Background Very few data exist on the functional evaluation of patients with severe
symptomatic aortic stenosis undergoing transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI). The …

The study aims to investigate the incidence of immediate renal function improvement in
renal dysfunction patients who had transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI). TAVI …

Acute Kidney Recovery (AKR) is a potential benefit of transcatheter aortic valve implantation
(TAVI). We determined the incidence and predictors of AKR in a multicenter prospective …

Few data exist on the use of the 6-minute walk test (6MWT) to measure the exercise capacity
of patients with severe symptomatic aortic stenosis considered at very high surgical risk. The …

Background: At present, there are no objective data specifically examining the clinical
impact of variations in exercise capacity post–transcatheter aortic valve replacement …

Objective To determine the nature of the association between renal dysfunction and
outcomes following transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) in all cases performed in …

Background The impact of baseline renal dysfunction on early and late clinical outcomes
after transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) remains to be defined. Methods 927 …

Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) is now widely approved for the treatment of
aortic stenosis, regardless of the patients' surgical risk. However, the outcomes of TAVR and …

Background Patients with degenerative aortic stenosis (AS) referred for transcatheter aortic
valve implantation (TAVI) typically have advanced cardiac and vascular adverse remodeling …

Background: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is frequently present in patients with aortic valve
disease. Decreased kidney perfusion as a consequence of reduced cardiac output may …
