'''Cardiorenal syndrome''' refers to a group of clinical conditions in which the heart and kidneys dysfunction together, leading to acute or chronic damage to one or both organs. The term "cardiorenal" is derived from the words "cardio" (heart) and "renal" (kidney). The syndrome is classified into five subtypes based on the primary organ of dysfunction and the sequence of involvement. | '''Cardiorenal syndrome''' refers to a group of clinical conditions in which the heart and kidneys dysfunction together, leading to acute or chronic damage to one or both organs.

Cardiorenal syndrome refers to a group of clinical conditions in which the heart and kidneys dysfunction together, leading to acute or chronic damage to one or both organs. The term "cardiorenal" is derived from the words "cardio" (heart) and "renal" (kidney). The syndrome is classified into five subtypes based on the primary organ of dysfunction and the sequence of involvement.
Definition[edit]
Cardiorenal syndrome is defined as a pathological condition in which the dysfunction of either the heart or kidneys induces acute or chronic dysfunction of the other organ. It is a complex pathophysiological process involving various mechanisms, including hemodynamic, neurohormonal, and immunological/inflammatory factors.
Classification[edit]
The Acute Dialysis Quality Initiative (ADQI) group proposed a classification system for cardiorenal syndrome, dividing it into five subtypes:
- Type 1 (Acute Cardiorenal Syndrome): Acute worsening of heart function leading to kidney injury.
- Type 2 (Chronic Cardiorenal Syndrome): Chronic abnormalities in heart function leading to kidney injury or dysfunction.
- Type 3 (Acute Renocardiac Syndrome): Acute worsening of kidney function leading to heart injury.
- Type 4 (Chronic Renocardiac Syndrome): Chronic kidney disease leading to heart injury, disease, or dysfunction.
- Type 5 (Secondary Cardiorenal Syndrome): Systemic conditions leading to simultaneous injury or dysfunction of both the heart and kidneys.
Pathophysiology[edit]
The pathophysiology of cardiorenal syndrome involves complex interactions between the heart and kidneys, mediated by various factors such as hemodynamic changes, neurohormonal activation, inflammation, and oxidative stress. The Renin-Angiotensin-Aldosterone System (RAAS) and Sympathetic Nervous System (SNS) play significant roles in the development and progression of cardiorenal syndrome.
Treatment[edit]
Treatment of cardiorenal syndrome involves managing the underlying heart or kidney disease, improving the functional status of the affected organ, and preventing further organ damage. This may include medications, lifestyle modifications, and in severe cases, mechanical or surgical interventions.
Prognosis[edit]
The prognosis of cardiorenal syndrome varies depending on the subtype, severity of organ dysfunction, and the patient's overall health status. In general, the presence of cardiorenal syndrome is associated with increased morbidity and mortality.
