2 Pathophysiology of Cardio-Renal Interactions Heart-Kidney Interactions: Bidirectional Temporally regulated (Acute and Chronic) Mediated by different mechanisms Different outcomes in specific populations Functional vs structural organ damage
3 Acute ADHF leading to AKI Cardiac Surgery Cardiac procedures CIN CPB Valve replacement Cardio-Renal Chronic HF (systolic or diastolic) leading to : CKD CKD progression Diuretic resistant oliguria Chronic Acute Kidney Injury leading to AHF Volume/uremiainduced ADHF Renal ischemiainduced ADHF Sepsis/cytokine induced AKI and HF Reno-Cardiac CKD increasing cardiovascular mortality CKD increasing cardiovascular morbidity Chronic HF progression due to CKD Uremia related HF Volume related HF
4 Cardio-Renal Interactions Basically a vicious circle Primary Insult Primary Insult ADHF - CHF AKI - CKD AKI-CKD Physiological derangements ADHF-CHF Physiological derangements Renal dysfunction Heart dysfunction
5 Heart-Kidney Scenarios CKD secondary to chronic heart failure (HF) AKI secondary to coronary angiography contrast induced nephropathy (CIN) AKI secondary to cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) AKI secondary to acute or acute on chronic heart failure Cardiovascular morbidity and mortality increased by end stage renal disease (ESRD) Chronic HF progression due to kidney dysfunction Uremia related HF Volume related HF Acute HF due to acute kidney dysfunction Volume/uremia-induced AHF
6 A widely accepted classification
7 Cardio-Renal syndromes General Definition: Pathophysiologic disorder of the heart and kidneys whereby acute or chronic dysfunction in one organ induces acute or chronic dysfunction in the other CRS Type I (Acute Cardiorenal Syndrome) Abrupt worsening of cardiac function leading to acute kidney injury CRS Type II (Chronic Cardiorenal Syndrome) Chronic abnormalities in cardiac function causing progressive and permanent chronic kidney disease CRS Type III (Acute Renocardiac Syndrome) Abrupt worsening of renal function causing acute cardiac disorders CRS Type IV (Chronic Renocardiac Syndrome) Chronic kidney disease contributing to decreased cardiac function, cardiac hypertrophy and/or increased risk of adverse cardiovascular events CRS Type V (Secondary Cardiorenal Syndrome) Systemic condition (e.g. diabetes mellitus, sepsis) causing both cardiac and renal dysfunction

9 Cardio-Renal Syndrome Type 1 Hemodynamically mediated damage Decreased CO Exogenous Factors Contrast media ACE inhibitors Diuretics Decreased perfusion Toxicity Vascocostriction. Increased venous pressure Acute Heart Disease Acute decompensation Ischemic insult Coronary angiography Cardiac surgery Humoral signalling BNP Sympathetic Activation Neuro-mediated damage RAA activation, Na + H2O retention, vasoconstriction Hormonal factors Immune mediated damage Natriuresis Cytokine secretion Acute Kidney Injury Renal hypoperfusion Reduced oxygen delivery Necrosis / apoptosis Decreased GFR Resistance to ANP/BNP Caspase activation Apoptosis Monocyte Activation Endothelial activation Caspase activation Apoptosis
10 Cardio-Renal Syndrome Type 1 LCOS and Congestion Acute Heart Disease Acute Kidney Injury Upon initial recognition, AKI induced by primary cardiac dysfunction implies inadequate renal perfusion until proven otherwise. This should prompt clinicians to consider the diagnosis of a low cardiac output state (LCOS) and/or marked increase in venous pressure leading to kidney congestion. It is important to remember that central venous pressure translated to the renal veins is a product of right heart function, blood volume, and venous capacitance which is largely regulated by neuro-hormonal systems. Specific regulatory and counter-regulatory mechanisms are activated with variable effects depending on the duration and the intensity of the insult.
11 Cardio-Renal Syndrome Type 1 Hemodynamic mechanisms Vasocostriction Decreased cardiac output Arterial underfilling Functional (Pre-renal) Diseased heart Compensatory Mechanisms Decreased perfusion pressure A K I Increased preload Vasoconstriction Vasodilatation Parenchymal Venous congestion Increased venous pressure
12 Cardio-Renal Syndrome Type 1 Compensatory mechanisms in HF Natriuresis Afterload Vasocostriction Sympathetic Nervous System R-A-A System Arginin Vasopressin Endothelin Water excretion Sodium excretion Urea readsorption HF Compensatory Mechanisms Natriuresis Afterload Natriuretic Peptides Chinin-kallicrein System Prostaglandins Endothelial Relaxin Factor Vasodilatation Water excretion Sodium excretion Urea readsorption

22 Structural AKI Biomarkers Early diagnosis of evolving AKI could result in prevention and/or earlier changes in management: Prevention of disease progression either stopping harmful interventions or mitigating/avoiding exposure to the insult Early therapeutic interventions designed to protect the kidney More accurate differential diagnosis of AKI could direct appropriate therapy of AKI (pre-renal vs renal) More accurate staging of AKI could help prognostic stratification and therapy of AKI Serial staging of phases of AKI (evolution of the syndrome) Assessment of current and future severity of injury
