The interaction between heart failure, renal failure and anemia - the cardio-renal anemia syndrome.
BACKGROUND Many patients with congestive heart failure (CHF) have chronic kidney insufficiency (CKI) and anemia. AIMS The purpose of this review is to clarify the relationship between these three factors and to study the effect of correction of anemia in CHF and CKI. FINDINGS Anemia, CHF and CKI are each capable of causing or worsening each other. Thus they form a vicious circle which can r...
متن کاملThe interaction between heart failure and other heart diseases, renal failure, and anemia.
Anemia, defined as a hemoglobin level of less than 12 g/dL, often is seen in congestive heart failure (CHF). It is associated with an increased mortality and morbidity and increased hospitalizations. Compared with nonanemic patients the presence of anemia also is associated with worse cardiac clinical status, more severe systolic and diastolic dysfunction, a higher beta natriuretic peptide leve...
متن کاملUpdates on Hepato-Renal Syndrome.
Hepato-renal syndrome (HRS) is one of the most detrimental conditions in patients with end stage liver failure. Historically, HRS was considered a terminal disease associated with cirrhosis and was termed "liver-death syndrome". Furthermore, despite the improved understanding of pathophysiology and the reversibility of renal dysfunction in HRS, mortality remains extremely high especially for ty...
متن کاملFocus on renal congestion in heart failure
Hospitalizations due to heart failure are increasing steadily despite advances in medicine. Patients hospitalized for worsening heart failure have high mortality in hospital and within the months following discharge. Kidney dysfunction is associated with adverse outcomes in heart failure patients. Recent evidence suggests that both deterioration in kidney function and renal congestion are impor...
متن کاملRenal Dysfunction in Acute Heart Failure
During treatment of acute heart failure (AHF), worsening renal function is often complicated and results in a complex clinical course. Furthermore, renal dysfunction is a strong independent predictor of long-term adverse outcomes in patients with AHF. Traditionally, the predominant cause of renal dysfunction has been attributed to impairment of cardiac output and relative underfilling of arteri...
