Abstract

The prevalence of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFPEF) and chronic kidney disease (CKD) has increased over the past few decades. The coexistence of HFPEF and CKD is common. HFPEF patients with any degree of CKD are at increased risk of mortality and conversely cardiovascular causes are the most common reason for mortality in CKD patients. The interplay between CKD and HFPEF is complex due to bidirectional pathophysiological and clinical effects of one disease on the other, e.g. the cardiorenal syndrome (CRS). The cardio-renal syndrome is mediated and accentuated by several mechanisms including hemodynamic, neurohormonal, oxidative stress, inflammation and metabolic factors. Cardiovascular and kidney disease share similar risk factors such as age, hypertension, diabetes mellites, obesity, anemia and hyperkalemia. Due to lack of consensus approaches, the medical management of patients with concomitant HFPEF and CKD remains challenging. Adoption of preventative strategies, utilization of newer biomarkers to recognize early injury and collaboration between cardiologist and nephrologist are essential for management of this unique patient population.
