Event Rates and Relative Risks for Major Bleeding and Aortic Valve Reoperation According to Kidney Function and Prosthesis Type in Patients With Normal Kidney Function (eGFR >60 mL/min per 1.73 m2) and Moderately Reduced Kidney Function (eGFR of 30–60 mL/min per 1.73 m2) Who Underwent AVR in Sweden Between 1997 and 2013

Normal Kidney Function Moderately Reduced Kidney Function

Aortic valve reoperation 265/9836 4 (3–4) 39/3266 1 (1–2)
Unadjusted 1.00 0.38 (0.27–0.53)
Multivariable adjusted modela 1.00 0.54 (0.38–0.79)

AVR indicates aortic valve replacement; eGFR, estimated glomerular filtration rate; HR, hazard ratio; PY, person‐years.
