Abstract 13230: Serum Cystatin C is an Alternative Measure of Renal Function and is Superior to Serum Creatinine for Prediction of Adverse Events in Left Ventricular Assist Device Patients

IntroductionEstimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) is reported to improve shortly after left ventricular assist device (LVAD) and is also predictive of adverse events. However, changes in muscle mass (MM) may affect the accuracy of serum creatinine (sCr) based eGFR. Cystatin C (CysC) estimates...
