Introduction and purpose
Risk of malnutrition is a frequent condition among patients undergoing transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR). Nutritional status assessed by nutritional risk index (NRI) is independently associated with an increased risk of death during long-term follow-up in these patients. The aim of the study is to determine the prognostic impact of the variation in nutritional risk after TAVR.
Methods
TAVR patients were included in an observational and prospective study between 2008–2019. Baseline and 3-months post-TAVR NRI were calculated as 1.519 x albumin (g/L) + 41.7 x (real weight [kg]/ideal weight [kg]). According to this parameter, the risk of malnutrition was severe (NRI |
