Acute Cardiorenal Syndrome in Therapeutic Practice: Clinical Variants and Prognosis
Cardiorenal syndrome (CRS) refers to interrelated pathological conditions involving the heart and kidneys, in which acute dysfunction of one organ leads to acute dysfunction of the other. Currently, CRS is classified into acute and chronic CRS, acute and chronic renocardiac syndrome, and secondary CRS. Hemodynamic, vascular, metabolic, neurohormonal, cytokine, and inflammatory mechanisms contribute to the development of CRS. Growing interest in CRS is associated with the rising incidence of chronic heart failure and chronic kidney disease. The diagnosis of acute CRS involves electrocardiography (focal myocardial changes, conduction and excitability disturbances, myocardial hypertrophy), echocardiography (reduced left and/or right ventricular ejection fraction, regional hypokinesia, assessment of intracardiac hemodynamics and valvular structures, pulmonary artery pressure), vascular ultrasound (assessment of central venous congestion, renal and hepatic venous congestion, presence of free fluid), as well as cardiac and renal biomarkers (troponin I, NT-proBNP, creatinine, cystatin C).Murkamilov I.T., Aitbaev K.A., Fomin V.V., Raimzhanov Z.R., Yusupov F.A., Yusupova T.F., Yusupov A.F., Solizhonov J.I., Khabibullaev K.K.
Clinical case. This article presents a clinical case of acute CRS in a young patient triggered by a respiratory infection. ECG revealed conduction abnormalities. Holter monitoring showed frequent episodes of second-degree sinoatrial block (Mobitz type I) with escape atrial and ventricular complexes, along with 42 monomorphic ventricular and 12 supraventricular extrasystoles. During treatment, laboratory parameters demonstrated a decline in inflammatory markers (leukocytes, neutrophils, C-reactive protein, fibrinogen, D-dimer, procalcitonin), lactate dehydrogenase, and NT-proBNP, along with improved kidney function (reduction in creatinine and cystatin C, increase in estimated glomerular filtration rate). Blood levels of troponin I and IL-6 remained within normal ranges.
