Abstract
The unfavorable mutual influence of the kidney and heart functions in acute or chronic kidney and/or heart failure has defined the cardiorenal syndrome (CRS) since a consensus conference in 2004. The pathophysiological considerations and the subsequent treatment approaches determine the classification into five types. The syndrome has a high prevalence in geriatric patients. The interactions of medications on one or the other organ system require an interaction of treatment modalities in order to improve the prognosis and prevent acute deterioration. Exact knowledge of the respective indications, differential treatment approaches and specifics in dealing with CRS can improve the current undertreatment due to concerns about side effects.
期刊介绍：
The fact that more and more people are becoming older and are having a significant influence on our society is due to intensive geriatric research and geriatric medicine in the past and present. The Zeitschrift für Gerontologie und Geriatrie has contributed to this area for many years by informing a broad spectrum of interested readers about various developments in gerontology research. Special issues focus on all questions concerning gerontology, biology and basic research of aging, geriatric research, psychology and sociology as well as practical aspects of geriatric care.
Target group: Geriatricians, social gerontologists, geriatric psychologists, geriatric psychiatrists, nurses/caregivers, nurse researchers, biogerontologists in geriatric wards/clinics, gerontological institutes, and institutions of teaching and further or continuing education.
