Contrast-induced acute kidney injury (CI-AKI) is an important consideration in patients
undergoing cardiac catheterization. There has been a continuous strive to decrease …

Background In patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), contrast-
induced acute kidney injury (CIAKI) is a frequent complication, especially in diabetics, and is …

The cardiovascular and renal systems share an intimate physiological relationship, wherein
a perturbance in one system may have an adverse effect on the other. Since the burden of …

The effect of contrast media (CM), delivered prior to-and during transcatheter aortic valve
implantation (TAVI), on kidney function, following the procedure, is debatable …

The purpose of our study was to develop a simple clinical pre‐procedure risk model based
on clinical characteristics for the prediction of contrast‐induced nephropathy (CIN) and …

Background: Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) is an effective, less invasive
treatment alternative for symptomatic severe aortic stenosis (AS). Acute kidney injury (AKI) …

The age, creatinine, and ejection fraction (ACEF) score has been accepted as a predictor of
poor outcome in elective operations. This study aimed to investigate the predictive value of …

Background Acute kidney injury (AKI) after transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) has
been associated with worse outcomes. However, the impact on outcome of AKI in TAVI …

OBJECTIVES Each surgical risk prediction model requires a validation analysis within a
large 'real-life'sample. The aim of this study is to validate the age, creatinine and ejection …

Objectives Congestion can worsen outcomes after transcatheter aortic valve implantation
(TAVI), but can be difficult to quantify non-invasively. We hypothesised that preprocedural …
