Abstract 130: Outcomes of Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement in Patients With Chronic Kidney Disease [Session Title: Poster Session AM]

Conclusions: A significant proportion of TAVR recipients suffer from chronic kidney disease. These patients were more likely to experience vascular complications and worsening of renal dysfunction, a prolonged intensive care unit and hospital length of stay, and an increased one-year mortality. Additional prospective randomized studies of this important patient population are warranted.
