ABSTRACT
The care for patients with cardiorenal syndrome has evolved recently because more adequate and readily available definitions have been proposed both for kidney injury and heart failure. It is no surprising that, given the complex relationship between these two marvelous organs, when one becomes compromised the other can be affected too. Recently with the more adequate definitions of the different types of cardiorenal syndrome the diagnosis and treatment for these patients have become clearer, but it is important to individualize each case. For example, contrary to classic teaching, usually the most important factor conditioning kidney injury in heart failure is venous hypertension resulting in a reduction of glomerular filtration and activation of neurohormonal mechanisms with the result of salt and water retention that further aggravate the edematous state. The cornerstone treatment of these patients is decongestion with the use of diuretics or even ultrafiltration by dialysis. A rise in creatinine with the use of loop diuretics may be expected when the patient decongests and this should not deter further diuresis. Novel treatments for both heart failure and kidney disease have been recently approved and found to be efficient, for example SGLT2 inhibitors, which further demonstrate that the complex relationship exists and that the other organ should always be taken into consideration when one fails.REFERENCES
