Core Tip	We performed this meta-analysis to assess the impact of periprocedural red blood cell (RBC) transfusion on the risk of acute kidney injury (AKI) after transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR). We verified a significant association between peri-procedural RBC transfusion and AKI after a TAVR with an overall 1.95-fold increased risk of AKI compared to those who did not receive transfusion. This study highlights the importance of vigilance when considering transfusions and should impact the clinical management of the high-risk group of patients undergoing TAVR.
