TAVI study aims to uncover kidney risks from contrast dye
NCT ID NCT07626710
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study observes 1000 people with severe aortic stenosis and kidney disease who are getting a TAVI procedure. Researchers want to see how removing the blocked valve affects the kidneys' response to contrast dye used during the procedure. The goal is to understand if TAVI lowers the risk of kidney injury from the dye.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could help doctors better predict and prevent kidney damage after TAVI procedures.
- What could go wrong
- This is an observational study, not a treatment trial. It will not directly test a new therapy, and results may not change current practice.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.
Inclusion Criteria: * Age \>18 years with a life expectancy \>1 year; * Patient candidate for percutaneous aortic valve implantation after formal indication of our "Heart Team". * Patient performed at least one contrast-based exam other than the TAVI procedure in the previous two months. * Patients had adequate renal function assessment after each contrast medium administration (TAVI procedure included) with at least three post-procedural measurements in the following 5 days. * Patients were informed of the possibility to be the object of anonymized data collection for study protocols approved by the internal Ethical Committee and had provided written informed consent to the procedure (for patients before 2018) or had provided written informed consent to the research purposes of IRCCS (for patients from 2018 to date). Exclusion Criteria: * Female with childbearing potential or lactating; * Acute or chronic end-stage renal dysfunction defined as estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) \<30 mL/min/1.73m2); * Candidate for dialysis treatment; * Co-morbidities that could interfere with the completion of study procedures, or life expectancy of less than 1 year; * Absent or incomplete renal function assessment after each contrast-based procedure; * Participating in another investigational drug or device trial that has not completed the primary endpoint or would interfere with the endpoints of this study;
