Excerpt
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common complication following transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) and has been shown to increase mortality. The concentration of the G1 cell cycle arrest proteins TIMP-2 and IGFBP7 in the urine have recently been suggested as sensitive biomarkers for early detection of AKI in critically ill patients. Whether postoperatively elevated levels of urinary [TIMP-2][IGFBP7] (UTI) predict the development of an AKI in patients undergoing TAVI is currently unknown. …
