Heart and kidney disease often coexist in the same patient. Of particular interest are CRS type 1 (acute cardiorenal syndrome) and type 3 (acute renocardiac syndrome). Both subtypes are encountered in high-acuity medical units; in particular, CRS type 1 is commonly seen in the coronary care unit and cardiothoracic intensive care unit. This course will provide a review of the epidemiology, pathophysiology, prevention strategies, and selected kidney management aspects for these two acute CRS subtypes. |
Knowledge and understanding of the epidemiology, pathophysiology, prevention strategies, and selected kidney management aspects for the more frequent renal diseases.
