Brief Summary:
Severe aortic stenosis remains a major cause of morbidity and mortality of the elderly affecting approximately 3% of elderly patients with an increasing number of patients undergoing transcatheter aortic valve interventions. As part of pre-procedural planning these patients undergo CT scans and receive contrast during the procedure. These patients often have baseline renal insufficiency and are high risk of contrast induced nephropathy despite pre-hydration techniques. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of this simple and safe procedure in preventing renal injury in this particular population.
