Cardiorenal Syndrome: The Clinical Cardiologists' Perspective.
The term cardiorenal syndrome has evolved over the years. The understanding of the interactions between these two organ systems has led to better recognition and treatment strategies. As cardiovascular mortality is high in individuals with renal dysfunction, it is imperative to understand the pathophysiology behind the disease process. This knowledge may better serve these patients with this sy...
متن کاملCardiorenal Syndrome: A Physician Perspective

BACKGROUND Over recent years, the field of medicine has been challenged by the twin epidemic of heart failure and renal insufficiency. The coexistence of the two problems in the same patient, referred to as cardiorenal syndrome (CRS), is defined as 'disorders of the heart and kidneys whereby acute or chronic dysfunction in one organ may induce acute or chronic dysfunction of the other. The mech...
متن کاملCardiorenal syndrome: a cardiologist's perspective of pathophysiology.
The cardiorenal syndrome has recently been defined as "disorders of the heart and kidney whereby acute or chronic dysfunction in one organ may induce acute or chronic dysfunction of the other." The syndrome is extremely common and independently associated with poor clinical outcomes. However, no pharmacological therapy has been shown to improve its outcomes. Unfortunately, the mechanisms that i...

Despite growing recognition of the frequent presentation of combined cardiac and renal dysfunction, or “cardiorenal syndrome,” its underlying pathophysiology is not well understood, and no consensus as to its appr...
