Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) patients are at a high risk of acute kidney injury (AKI). This study aimed to investigate AKI and the relationship with iodinated contrast media (ICM), whether there are significant pre- or peri- procedural variables predicting AKI, and whether AKI impacts on hospital length of stay and mortality.

Methods

Serum creatinine (SC) levels pre- and post- (peak) TAVR were recorded in 209 consecutive TAVR patients. AKI was defined by the Valve Academic Research Consortium 2 (VARC2) criteria. Baseline characteristics, procedural variables, hospital length of stay (LOS) and mortality at 72 hours, 30 days and one year were analysed.

Results

Eighty-two of 209 (39%) patients suffered AKI. Mean ICM volume was 228cc, with no difference between patients with AKI and those with no AKI (227cc (213-240(95%CI)) vs 231cc (212-250) p=0.700)). Univariate and multivariate analysis demonstrated that chronic kidney disease, respiratory failure, previous stroke, the need for blood transfusion and valve repositioning were all predictors of AKI. Acute kidney injury increased LOS (5.6 days (3.8 - 7.5) vs 3.2 days (2.6 - 3.9) no AKI (P=0.004)) but was not linked to increased mortality. Mortality rates did increase with AKI severity.

Conclusion

Acute kidney injury is a common complication of TAVR. The severity of AKI is important in determining mortality. Acute kidney injury appears to be independent of ICM use but pre-existing renal impairment and respiratory failure were predictors for AKI. Transcatheter aortic valve replacement device repositioning or retrieval was identified as a new risk factor impacting on AKI.
