Cardio-renal interrelation: modern view

Abstract

The paper discusses the definition and classification of cardio-renal syndrome (CRS) — a pathological process in heart or kidneys, characterised by acute or chronic dysfunction of one organ which results in acute or chronic failure of the other organ. The pathophysiological mechanisms, diagnostics, and treatment are described for each clinical variant of CRS.
