Background: Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR), although associated with an increased risk for acute kidney injury (AKI), may also result in improvement in renal function. Objective: The aim of this study is to evaluate the magnitude of kidney function improvement (KFI) after TAVR and to assess its significance on long-term mortality. Design: This is a prospective single center study. Setting: The study was conducted in cardiology department, interventional unit, in a tertiary hospital. Patients: The cohort included 1321 patients who underwent TAVR. Measurements: Serum creatinine level was measured at baseline, before the procedure, and over the next 7 days or until discharge. Methods: Kidney function improvement was defined as the mirror image of AKI, a reduction in pre-procedural to post-procedural minimal creatinine of more than 0.3 mg/dL, or a ratio of post-procedural minimal creatinine to pre-procedural creatinine of less than 0.66, up to 7 days after the procedure. Patients were categorized and compared for clinical endpoints according to post-procedural renal function change into 3 groups: KFI, AKI, or preserved kidney function (PKF). The primary endpoint was long-term all-cause mortality. Results: The incidence of KFI was 5%. In 55 out of 66 patients patients, the improvement in kidney function was minor and of unclear clinical significance. Acute kidney injury occurred in 19.1%. Estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) <60 mL/min/1.73 m2 was a predictor of KFI after multivariable analysis (odds ratio = 0.93 to develop KFI; confidence interval [95% CI]: 0.91-0.95, P < .001). Patients in the KFI group had a higher Society of Thoracic Surgery (STS) score than other groups. Mortality rate did not differ between KFI group and PKF group (43.9% in KFI group and 33.8% in PKF group) but was significantly higher in the AKI group (60.7%, P < .001). Limitations: The following are the limitations: heterozygous definitions of KFI within different studies and a single center study. Although data were collected prospectively, analysis plan was defined after data collection. Conclusions: Improvement in kidney function following TAVR was not a common phenomenon in our cohort and did not reduce overall mortality rate.

AbstractIntroductionAcute kidney injury occurs in up to one third of patients after cardiac surgery and is an important contributor for adverse outcome. Previous research has demonstrated the benefit of a bundle of preventive measurements to reduce AKI in a subgroup of patients with high risk for AKI development. Urinary stress biomarkers [TIMP-2]*[IGFBP7] are used to identify these patients who are at risk for AKI. The trial aims to investigate the potential discrepancy between biomarker results and clinical estimation of occurrence of AKI on ICU in clinical practice.Methods and analysisWe plan to include 100 adult patients after cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass in a prospective, single center clinical trial. After cardiac surgery, different type of healthcare professional in ICU will provide a prediction of AKI occurrence and severity in the next 48 hours by filling in a questionnaire just before and after [TIMP-2]*[IGFBP7] biomarker analysis. Primary, this trial investigates the potential discrepancy in AKI prediction between clinical estimation by healthcare providers, biomarker results, and previous described score systems. Secondly, the impact of knowledge of the biomarker result on the quality of prediction by healthcare providers will be evaluated.Ethics and disseminationThis prospective, single center study has been approved by the medical ethical committee of the Ghent University Hospital (28th May 2019, trial registration number B670201939991). Informed consent was obtained for patients and healthcare providers.Summary strength and limitations-Influence of knowledge of a kidney biomarker on healthcare providers’ assessment of risk for AKI in clinical setting-Different types of healthcare providers with various expertise-It is a single center study with limited number of patients
